You do know that you can get iPads for much cheaper then just 30 off correct? Are you putting this in here as a good deal because of buying a bunch of them and then returning the merch while keeping the giftcards? If not, I suggest you return your item and buy the iPad for much cheaper at Best Buy.

Matchmee- I didn't go through with the purchase, I just went to check out to see how many items you could buy. Yes, $30 isn't a big deal, and you can find a similar deal elsewhere. Although the base iPad mini at Best Buy is currently $300... unless I'm missing a something. I guess if you want to buy the mobile hotspot to save $100 that's a good way to go. The $50 gift card though is nice for someone looking to stock up on more Apple related products. I viewed the combination as $80 off which is why I posted it. If there's a better way to go about it, I'm all for it! :)

LOL... actually that wasn't my intent, and I didn't purchase anything. I didn't even think of that angle... not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. :) Personally I think doing so crosses a line, but that's just me.

OP never said that, I just asked him if that's why he thought it was a good deal. I wouldn't do it either, but since there have been better deals and very similar deals from Target and Best Buy I figured this might be his angle.

ProjectX- there have been better deals from Best Buy and Target- 199 (in June) for the baseline iPad without Retina. Though this is a deal, I wouldn't suggest getting it at this price from Apple. I would wait for Target or Best Buy to offer some back to school prices. In the stores Best Buy has been offering better deals then online. I bought my iPad Mini Retina from Best Buy at the end of June for about 150 off- 100 off in store and I had a 50 back on Amex. Wait for it!

And don't forget the 10% Best Buy Mover's Coupon! And also the $50 off iPad Student discount coupon from Best Buy!!!

At Best Buy: PM a retailer, then stack with the $50 Student discount (must have .edu address), then the 10% off USPS Movers coupon for slickdeal.

I'm just waiting for a good drop on a 13" MacBook Pro Retina so I can replace my MacBook Pro.
