Apple doesn't ask for any proof. Literally ANYONE can get the discount. The fine print, if I recall, even says parents can buy for themselves.

to confirm they wouldn't let you return just the airpods pro? that's a bummer as I don't really need the airpods so was hoping to be able to return them.

Yup, they told me there's no benefit of returning the AirPods Pro so i just opted to return and just keep the free AirPods.

I think this is building the space for the new version. I am hoping they are coming with 16GB Mac Mini at more reasonable price.
They do this deal every year at this time.

so is it safe to assume its a no go on returning the free airpods or the subsidized airpod pros for a full msrp refund whether online or to a store?

FYI... if someone is interested in buying this from Bestbuy, I called them and they matched this deal. $899.99 for Macbook Air and free Airpods. They have $130 Apple competitor discount coupon in their system for this price match. I went with Bestbuy because of AMEX offer of spend $50 get $50 back from earlier this year.
Really? What did you say with them to get them to match the deal??

But if you have a credit card that gives extra 1-2 years of warranty, why pay with gift cards

Anyone know how to get the apple music discount? Trying to get it for my son but his school won't let him receive an email from the uniday server to verify.
Do you know what UNIDAY stands for? Your son needs to attend a University or need an University provided email address. Lol.
