Hi,

I would like to buy over the summer two different laptops.

One would be a 17" MBP, and the other one an 11" Mac
Book Air.

Is it possible to get the two of them, (at the same time),
with the student discount and/or any other student
promotion that may be going on ??

Thank you, kind regards,

Have a read of the rules, but I think from memory you can buy one laptop per year with the education discount. I think you can get a Mac Mini, a laptop, and an iMac/Mac Pro

That is correct! What you can do is purchase one of the two now then when school starts in the fall purchase the other with the discount.
 
I heard they don't check though if you've already used the discount. Why not just try two separate orders?
 
they really dont check if you buy it online, so why not just do that. I've bought one at Bestbuy before, told them i'm a student and they gave me the discount right away. They didnt even ask for ID or note that i'm using the discount.
 
Hi,

Thank you again for your messages : ) !!!

I may just buy one over the summer and the
other one next year.

Is it possible to get my discount and/or
promotion from a local retailer as opposed
to getting it from a(ny) larger retailer ??

Thank you, kind regards,
