I did this Tuesday, prior to the promotion extension. I received an email within an hour CONFIRMING I had qualified for the $500 shop cards.

Also, Costco discounts these by $50 always. So $350 rebate + $50 + $500 shop card = $900 off list price. However, I had to pay sales tax on the list price, which was a bummer.

If this is the computer you want, this is as good as it will ever get. Apple will probably be releasing an M2 version within weeks, but it is expected to be a 15-20% bump in CPU speed, more graphics cores, but otherwise no new design. For me, this computer is already overkill and I'll take the $900 off.

The $500 gift card is part of the "Spent and Get" promotion. It's the Red text link at the top of the page. The promotion has been extended until Oct 20th - originally was the 18th.

Many people in tech/ freelance, designers, artists and other creatives use these machines and need all the power we can get.

YOU NEVER KNOW Smilie A lot of porn windows? but to be honest. this system services different type of need and it does it jobs quite well
Quote from MrSkeptic :
https://everymac.com/systems/appl...specs.html [everymac.com]

Many power users will be unimpressed with this model's non-expandable base configuration storage limited to 1 TB; I have that in my 2015 MBPro and 2020 Acer refurb cheapie! 2 TB costs $400 more via sales at Apple or others that sell those with more storage (2.5 times the DIY upgrade price for Windows machines).
​I am that power user and I love this system. I had never liked Apple products and still do not like iPhones today. but when I test drive M1 MAC book air, it does wonderful jobs for my need. I decide to grab this system with everything MAX OUT besides SSD which I stick with 1TB size. For many years I was a Windows user and a Linux user. I work in IT and I deal with Unix servers all day long as well as windows servers. The reason why I move to the Apple side instead of Linux OS. was Apple have more application support for my need more than LINUX but not as much as windows, while some people may say Linux is better, but simple basic Citrix apps give me all kind of problems in Linux among some other apps. at the end of the day when already dealing with too much work Linux server, I just want to get on something that works since I don't have time to fumble around to play with the Linux library and configuration that was one of the more reasons got this Apple computer. Why don't I stay in Windows? well over the year I spent and spent a lot of money to get me that perfect system the one that can handle everything I toss as, but the problem is windows tend to slow down after a while of use. I did spend a lot more money on Dell Precision line computers as well as Alienware, but they just do not hold up well as this MBP I had now, it those PC ran HOT HOT. however, I am not totally replace my Windows world. I still have that old workhorse Dell precision to do stuff for me when Apple can't like Update the firmware on my new 49" inch Samsung setup......Also, remember the people who spend this kind of money may also use it to edit video and music without spending a crap load of money like a movie production studio.

This is a fantastic deal, best I've seen so far, same as Apple employee discount at 25% but with 4 year extended warranty.

Purchase one yesterday and received this email today:

"Congratulations, your recent order of over $3,000 qualifies you for a $500 promotional Costco Digital Shop Card.

The digital shop card will be sent to this email address within 2-3 weeks after your order has been delivered."
I would not call it a great deal. I got my MBP when they first came out and waited for it for almost three months, I pay just a little more with everything max out besides 1TB SSD drive, it also has final cut pro
Quote from brokenarcher :
Got this specific model from work. While it is insanely powerful and the deal is as good as it gets, 99% of people don't need this beefy of a machine (I honestly don't think I need it for work either). The rest 1% likely already got it from their company. Get this if you do a lot of video editing for personal use/side gig.

If you're looking for something moderately powerful, the MacBook Pro 14 deal on FP might be more suitable. For personal use, I use a base config M1 air, and it's plenty fast for basic usage like web browsing and occasional photo editing, plus it's significantly less chonky than the new MBPs so you can literally take it anywhere
lol that a lie Smilie .. yes M1 MB air is fast but not that fast .. look at your activities monitor and tell me how much swap you are using.... I hit it so hard and hit it all the time I decide MBP with 64GB ram is what I need... and I almost never never have to hit the swap space again :;

Only 32gb ram sadly.
If it had 64 this would be insanely slick.

I am wondering the same, since this is basically the price of a used car.

I wouldn't pay that much for a 32gb RAM. The 1gb hard drive is tolerable.

What specs? A 16" with everything maxed out except ssd (max, 64gb, 1tb) is $3,899 pre-tax from Apple. $1,300 is not "a little more"....

I have not seen a better deal than this one from Costco on the 16 with max ($2,599.99).

Microcenter had a great deal on the 14" ($1,200 off), but the max chip is thermally limited in the smaller chassis.

I'm bummed they don't take Amex because they are doing a free pay over time and I really want one. Just can't justify it with like tons of big bills including pet surgery. 😭

Show it off to your Mac friends and hide it from your non-Mac friends who will laugh at the price you paid for a Mac.

If one can't afford to buy this outright.
There is 0.0 reason you should even be considering it.
