Yes, they do have them in the actual bestbuy. I didnt buy mine from there, but I saw the boxes stacked up in the back. And I'm almost positive that the discount only works if you buy it through apple via online or in an apple store. I may be wrong though.

Yes, Best Buy sells macbooks and iMac's in store. They reached a deal with Apple to carry their products sometime last year and have a section devoted to them. But no, the student discount does not apply at Best Buy; only the Apple store.

If you tell them you're planning to go to the Apple store, they'll match the discount. That's what they did for me at Best Buy.

I bought my iMac at a Best Buy and they did accept the student discount.
Doesn't hurt to ask.

Not true. Or at least it shouldn't be. Best Buy's price matching policy only applies to brick and mortar stores. Manager's can take things like that on a case-by-case basis but it's very, very rare you'll find anyone willing to price match an online store like amazon.

I work at Best Buy, and yes they do match the student discount pricing. Also, their protection plan is amazing considering what they offer with it, so I suggest you get it.
