got to read the terms and condititions but by october its going to be sold out in stores. i wanted place my order online friday for pickup. ''at the store.''  i really dont see how they would know if i brought an iphone or not anyway. i think its just for the ''scare''. Originally i was going to apply for barclay apple financing but i wont get any cash back and since i already have the barclay's reward card i was going to use discover to get 5% cash back and use those barclay's balance transfer checks to payoff the iphone on my discover and get 18 months 0% APR on the iphone that way Smiley Happy I have bill me later / paypal credit but iits ''Bill Me Later©, business lease, wire transfers, cashier's checks, and money orders are ineligible payment methods for pickup items.''

Depending on who your carrier is and what phone upgrade plan you are on, you can get 0% financing though your carrier for 24 months. Cashback is another beast, but while the iPhone may be sold out by October, it will be back in stock at least sometime between October and December. Patience may pay off in this case.

I actually double dipped this deal, ordered using Discover link and paid with my AMEX for extra warranty.


WHAT!? Smiley Surprised  are you saying as long we use the discover link we can use any credit card and still get 5% ? or you mean you brought the apple care with the AMEX to extend the warranty ?


Smiley Wink I used Discover's link to order a Macbook Pro Retina, paid with AMEX Plat on Apple's website (AMEX and few other cards give you 1 year of extra warranty). So in the end I got cashback from Discover, around 2K Amex MR points and an extra year of warranty. Win Win Smiley Happy

Re: I am so sad...

I have a question on Discover online category. Is EBay/ PayPal considered online shopping? I need to buy something on EBay and I am wondering if I should wait until October 1st so I get 5% back.
