I was wondering if I can get a MBP today and if there is a B2S sale tomorrow, can I request to have that $100 gift card or whatever theyre handing out later on during the week?
I would wait until tomorrow, but my parents got work that day plus I got orientation for college.
Or should I wait another week?

Within 14 days, return then buy back.

You can request anything you want.

Why not wait till your parents get off work?

They get off work pretty late, 11:00pm. I'm pretty sure Apple will be closed

Meh... then I'll probably already have some stuff on there.
It'll be better if they just give me the gift instead of me returning it then they have to pay for restocking fee since it's free for me to return.

but idk...
Is there a direct answer? I'm about to go there now.
 
The answer is "probably" but for your own sanity, and those of the poor people actually selling you the laptop, just wait. Seriously, it saves you a headache, and it saves them a headache.
 
As far as I know, Apple include last 14 day purchases on products eligible for the promotion. I suppose this is so that you don't have to return it just to benefit from it a few days later. So the promotion lasts 14 days from the start until it ends.

Thanks. I don't mind the headache as long as I can get what I want. lol.
I'm going to ask the sale rep there if that's possible.
 
Just wait till tomorrow or the day after. Don't be an impatient little kid. Your going to college, time to grow up.

Little kid? I take that offensively.
But I'll ignored it this time.

If you read my original 1st post, I would have to wait another week and I thought it would be nice to have a laptop to take to orientation.
 
Why not just order it online? Also, you don't need a laptop for orientation. They'll just parade you around campus showing you everything, have you make user accounts maybe, silly little games to get people to talk to each other. Nothing that you will need a laptop for.

I guess that is true. I've decided just to wait another week before I cam get it. Thanks.

Well learn to not take it offensively, because you'll be getting a lot of it, both in college and when you start working.

Anyways, you should wait. It's not as if you parents will come tomorrow and change their mind about it all.
