Looks like that $100 off at AppleInsider works on the $1299 M2 Mac Mini too.

Wish we had that price, then I would probably buy one, too (not for collection purposes, totally not!). But price probably will be doubled if I count shipping and whether or not it will arrive in one piece without warrantyā¦
Meanwhile Iām waiting for the Tab S8 Ultra to drop 2/3 of its original priceā¦ maybe still 1-2 years in the future. That Wacom touch screen is just so marvelousā¦

I had heard it was much more difficult to get them unlocked these days (flat refusal to unlock them) given the number of AT&T ones in the market. Is that not actually the case? Tempted to order one and have it shipped up to Canada. Works out to be about $390CAD including customs.
Thatās what Iāve been reading as well. I recently saw a post by someone who claimed that they did get it unlocked after a huge ordeal (lots of calls). It doesnāt sound like a sure thing to me.
Havenāt there been any reductions yet? It is selling at a good pace even att full price?
It was on Woot a while back, I believe ā not sure if it was that low.
Best Buy and Microcenter near me offer $50-$200 off depending on model configuration on regular basis including now with for example $70 off the standard base Tab S8
Tech deal alert: Dale is selling his Duo Uno after (checks watch) fifteen minutes of evaluation.
Edit: cancelled. I canāt keep up!!
Iāll have you know I gave it a full HOUR (seriously, it got 72 hours on and off, and just canāt navigate Android, which says more about me than the device). Despite trying to look at this as a mini-tablet it is still carrying two smartphonesā¦

The Mac mini $499 deal is over at Apple Insider & Adorama, changed to $50 off: $549. I believe the $499 price is still going for education at Apple.com.
Ars listed a couple of Surface deals today, some of which represent pretty significant discounts. Unfurtunately the phrase āup to x offā usually means āprovided you buy the most overpriced high-end modelā.

Shame they didnāt do the same for the 256gb SSD SKU - it only got a $33 haircut to $846
If anyone ever spots this deal again, please post here. Iād have taken the deal for $50 just for the pleasure of not having to type the BitLocker codes for external drives!

For those interested in sharing Office 365 with a few people, this might be a good option: ($50 discount)

Buyer warning: your Microsoft 365 becomes tied exclusively to Amazon until the subscription runs out if you purchase this digital subscription through them.

What does that mean in practice? Do they have some degree of account management authority in this case?
You can only renew and extend through Amazon until the subscription term ends with them. A family member got burnt doing this before and it was a pain because they had to count down the days until they were freed from Amazon pergatory.
