AppleInsider this week is again teaming up with Apple authorized reseller Adorama to offer a Free Apple SuperDrive & Free AppleCare on several Mid-2015 15" MacBook Pros, as well as a Free Apple SuperDrive & 50% off AppleCare on several Early-2015 13" MacBook Pros & MacBook Airs. But more generally, these two promotions combine to offer readers a Free Apple SuperDrive and between 25% and 100% off AppleCare on every possible 2015 13" MacBook Air, 13" MacBook Pro and 15" MacBook Pro.

In most cases, the final net price of these bundles deliver the lowest prices anywhere for the Mac paired only with the AppleCare, meaning the SuperDrive and any additional additional cash discounts between the next lowest price listed in our Macs with AppleCare Price Guide are both sweeteners to the deal. Plus Adorama will only collect sales tax on your order if you live in NY or NJ. In total, most shoppers will save between $250-$600 with all the benefits of these deals when compared to buying at an Apple Store.

The key to these promos are our exclusive bundles paired with promo code APINSIDER, which will deduct at least $100 off Adorama's advertised price for the bundles after you first click through the Adorama links on AppleInsider or the Price Guides to activate the promo code.

Rebate FAQs

The $100 Rebate is issued as a pre-paid $100 American Express car that can be used to make purchases anywhere a credit card can be used. It cannot be used at an ATM to redeem cash. The average lead time from when you submit your rebate application to when you'll receive your card is approximately 6 weeks. The card comes with a $100 value and you should attempt to use it in full before the end of the 4th month. After that, a maintenance fee of $2/month will automatically begin to reduce the value of your card. Best advice: use it as soon as you receive it on groceries, staples and other routine/common purchases.
