Doesnt look like it. I keep refreshing the site just in case. They really should take down the add if they aren't going to have them available.

I called my local store and they do have the special, while supplies last. I sent my dad but haven't heard if he was able to get one for me. One per person according to the person I spoke with. Although maybe a different credit card or separate purchase would work?

I saw that deal early this morning and was going to buy it but figured I can use the $100 walmart gift card more so than the best buy. I have more stuff to get at Walmart.

Hoping Walmart lets us use the gift card the same night on Thanksgiving.

update: My dad was able to purchase one in store for $299 plus the gift card. With tax it was $322. They only had white, but I wanted that anyway. Good luck and thanks again to the OP!!

Oh, I had no idea. Thanks.

I have an iPad 2 with 32gb that I am still using so I don't necessarily NEED one, but I think the Mini would be easier to carry around in my purse.

They aren't making anything bigger than 16gb in the older model anymore. That's the model all the deals are for

I was able to order one on line this morning. I didn't want to ship to house b/c I'm worried someone will take it off of my porch. It was not available for store pick up at the Best Buy closest to me so I chose ship to store. confirmation email says I can pick it up on Dec 3rd. Hope it works out!

I just scored one in store...

My mil and I each got one at our local Best Buy. Thanks to all for posting about this great deal!

I ordered one online before 7am (Central), and it was only available for store pickup, not shipping. At noon, I got an email from Best Buy letting me know that it was out of stock at my local store, and I should call a toll-free number for options. I called the number, and a recording told me that they were all out of iPad Minis. When I got home from work, I called the special customer service number for Elite Plus members. They put me on hold for six minutes, and then disconnected me.

I also had an experience in April where they cancelled my online order. I'm done with Best Buy. Done, done, done.

So, where can I buy the iPad Mini online tomorrow/Friday/Monday? No stores near Grandma's house!

OUCH!!! I would be beyond livid, not that being ticked off really helps any situation at all!

Our order was cancelled also. Of course they charged my credit card first. I held 20 min to talk to an agent. They were no help. Sounds like Best Buy sold items they didn't have. I will not shop there again. I hope someone actually got one.

Our orders are in limbo. Not fulfilled but not cancelled. According to both the phone rep and the in store CSR we spoke to, since our orders are processed, we will get the iPads. I don't know how much faith I have in them though.

Mine has shipped out already. But my husbands who bought his at the same time is still not filled. I am hoping since he has an order number it will complete. Otherwise we will still be at walmart tomorrow

I hope that it works out for you, but I had an order number and still got cancelled on. I see several other people on Twitter with the same experience. I really hope that I can find another one somewhere, because it will be awkward if one kid gets one, and one doesn't. My husband ordered his two hours before I did, and I think he said he has shipping confirmation. They are going to be losing a LOT of business from our house, though. I had almost $3k in web orders already this year, and I wouldn't be surprised if my husband had more. (We both end up being default IT at work, and it's simpler to buy monitors, cables, etc. there and pick them up down the street than to order and wait for UPS.)

Argh! Couldn't find a store in my area with availability for pickup, and now black and gray are sold out on line. Tried to get white for shipping, and it says "there was a problem adding to your cart".

Guess I'm waiting in line tomorrow....sigh.....

Just a tip, this offer is available at best buy mobile locations, like the cell phone stores in malls. All the actual best buys by us were out, but at 6pm I was told I was the first one to try the mobile store! They had a full stock. You can even use the gift card to buy a second one right there if you want to I was told.

My order also got cancelled. I am pretty upset about it. If they hadn't waited 6 hours to tell me it was cancelled, I might have had a shot at getting one in the store.

Crazy update - this morning they sent me another cancellation email, so I called the toll free number again. This time they didn't have the "sold out" recording, and I got through to a representative, who found one to ship to me. I got an email telling me that they are processing my order, but no tracking number yet. We'll see what happens!

Seriously??? I spent 40mins on the phone with them last night and they couldn't find any to ship to me. So annoying! They did say that I will get one but not until they restock. My emails say my order will be cancelled on dec 5th though if nothing comes in stock. My $100 GC already shipped though so who knows what they are doing over there.

My gift card shipped and I was charged for it. I called them and they said the iPad was cancelled but the gift card did not cancel. I recommend people pay attention to their Best Buy orders.
