A pair of 3% discount coupons on Apple's new MacBook and iMac product lines are set to expire at midnight tonight, and AppleInsider has been told that they're unlikely to return until sometime next year.
White 13-inch MacBooks

However, it's also offering AppleInsider readers an additional 3% of when using the links in this article or those in the Mac Price Guide (also below), bringing the final cost down to $899.18.
New 21- and 27-inch wide-screen iMacs
Similarly, ClubMac is has been offering AI readers the same courtesy on sales of Apple's new 21- and 27-inch iMacs. After mail-in rebates are combined with the added 3% discount, the 3.06GHz 21-inch NVIDIA model comes to $1,063.92 ($135.08 savings), the 3.06GHz 21-inch ATI model to $1,374.18 ($124.82 savings), the 3.06GHz 27-inch ATI model to $1,548.18 ($150.82 savings), and the 2.66GHz quad-core 27-inch model to $1,790.52 ($208.48 savings).
13-, 15-, and 17-inch MacBook Pros
In addition, MacMall's mail-in rebate and 3% offers cover the 13-, 15-, and 17-inch MacBook Pro lines. After discounts, the 2.26GHz 13-inch MacBook Pro falls to $1,078.18 ($120.82 savings), the 2.53GHz 13-inch MacBook Pro to $1,354.18 ($144.82 savings), the 2.53GHz 15-inch MacBook Pro to $1,543.18 ($155.82 savings), the 2.66GHz 15-inch MacBook Pro to $1,784.18 ($214.82 savings), the 2.80GHz 15-inch MacBook Pro to $2,025.18 ($273.82 savings), and the 2.80GHz 17-inch MacBook Pro to $2,219.18 ($279.82 savings).
In each of the above cases, the resellers' final costs fall below Apple's educational pricing for the respective models. Additional details are available in AppleInsider's Mac Price Guide, which is updated daily.
