If you want a MacBook Air 13" this VIP day is the time to buy. It's $200 off and is the latest model with 128GB PCIe crazy fast storage, 8GB ram and is an i5 with turbo boost and hyperthreading. 12+ hours usage on battery is legit for web or video watching. I bought one last VIP day and it has exceeded my expectations. The Pro is not worth the price premium IMO, retina actually shows less on the screen due to 2x scaling on the Pro compared to the Air.
Always in search of a great deal....

If you can wait, go to Bureau en gros, try a few chairs, note the one you prefer and wait for it to be on sale.

Would that GoPro-like camera not be a decent deal??

I believe their Mac lineup is being refreshed with the latest Intel Processors and are slated to be announced in the next month or two.
I guess this thread is about the BB VIP sale but just wanted to put that info out there in cause some users did not know.

True, in October I'd expect new Macbook Pros to be announced with Kaby Lake CPUs and a OLED touch row replacing the F-keys is the rumor. I also expect that the Macbook AIR line will be discontinued completely. I think there is possibly of a new Macbook 13" added to the 12" range, and then the 13" and 15" Pros will get a redesign.
Sept 7 should be all about iPhone, but you never know they might throw in new Mac stuff too.

Anyway, if you want a Macbook AIR you might as well take advantage of the VIP sale, then if something is introduced on the 7th you want more, you can return the Air. 14 day return policy.

Any of the drones on sale a good deal? The Phantom 4K doesn't have lightbridge so that's out of the question and the 3DR I'm not really sure about.

That's what I'm thinking...I tried looking for reviews online but couldn't really find anything that was helpful. Looks like the quality isn't amazing but good for casual users I guess. Also looks like it might be slightly bigger and bulkier than the GoPro. Not sure if I should buy this or save up a little more to buy a GoPro...

The 3DR Solo package on sale comes with the gimbal attachment. Its $849.99 right now (http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/-/b ... e1ca5fen02), couple that with the $20 of $100+ Visa Checkout promo and thats one of the lowest prices I've seen for that package.

The VIP price for tomorrow is going to be $849.99 as well the last I checked. The Visa Checkout promo ends August 31.

Save your money boys..

They were going for $50 last month via a rewards card code.

But most importantly, its sensor is not the best, video quality is meh and the camera itself glitches often ( Needing to take out the battery and replace)..

For kids or for very occasional use, go for it.. For anything more serious go Chinese ( I have had good luck with sub 100 Eken's, but xiaomi, dazzia, and legit sj cams are pretty good) or pay for a Gopro/sony/garmin.

I was looking at getting the pro for the extra performance and ports, but also the resolution. What do you mean about it showing less than the Air?

I'm in the same boat, might be worth a try. It's dirt cheap so might be good for a starter unit. Winder what mount and accessories it works with?

Screw it, for 60 bucks I will try it. Ordering tomorrow.

Absolutely garbage. As expected they raised their prices before showing a "discount" and there is no 30 percent off code like they had in June.
