I guess it's better than nothing, but all of the discounts I have seen yet this year seem very mild. Retailers should expect very mild response from consumers.
I was at bestbuy this morning (bought an Asus zephyrus g16) and saw 3 steel cages full of apple gear on the display floor, not even keeping them in the back room. Seems like bestbuy is expecting lots of sales.

Sales are traditionally to clear out old stock, not the latest and greatest.

Those mild discounts are putting many of the items below cost for most of Apple's independent resellers.

That's not how to stay in business!
 
Best Buy's 'genius' marketing. Sent me an email to activate offer $40 reward certificate if spent $750 with Best Buy card by Dec 31. Purchases must be OUTSIDE of BEST BUY. Looks like Best Buy is paying me $40 to use my Best Buy card to purchase it anywhere but Best Buy. Both Amazon (strangely long delivery time) and Target (local but limited stock - but website identifies which stores) are offering it for the same price! The irony is that I saw it a Best Buy and was ready to pull the trigger, then I got the email.

Executives at Target have already said that customers aren't spending and advised investors to expect a very mild sales on this holiday season. Consumers aren't spending, everyone is tightening their belts, including the retailers. This economy is absolutely fked right now.

Ordered mine yesterday and it's out for delivery today :)
 
Almost bought one, but figured I can wait for M3 instead - my mini 6 is enough for now.
