Cheapest way to get an M1 Mac Mini?

From my RFD experiences I remember many people would recommend buying from Apple refurbished, is that the best deal?

I was also wondering about ways to supplement that discount, like where I could buy Apple gift cards with reward points or maybe during those special 10% off deals that pop up, though I cannot recall if those included Apple gift cards, probably not.

Can you typically buy gift cards with reward points? Like for example during a Shopper's Mega Redemption promo? Seems unlikely but I thought I should consult RFD.

Yes you are unlikely to get a better deal than that. I have bought Apple refurbs before, no difference from what I could tell between that and new. There are a couple models discounted right now, jump on that. https://www.apple.com/ca/shop/refurbished/mac/mac-mini

Thanks. I figured with most Apple stuff, especially Macs, that there's very few "deals" out there. I had held out some hope that some RFD mastermind might appear here with some cool idea :). The only idea I could come up with was possibly using up some EB Games credit to buy Apple gift cards.
