Figures that I buy too soon

I am taking my last classes for an Associate's Degree and last week I bought an iMac from the Apple Store (very pleasant experience). So it figures that this week Apple announces a back to school promotion that I miss by about 7 days.
This year's promotion, which started Monday and runs through Sept. 21, gives current college students and incoming freshmen, parents buying for a college student, and teachers and staff members of all grade levels -- including K-12 -- the $100 gift card when they buy a new iMac, Mac Pro, MacBook Pro or MacBook Air. Refurbished Macs and the Mac Mini do not qualify.
Apple will award a $50 gift card to those who purchase one of the new iPads, the third-generation tablet the company launched last March. iPad 2s, which Apple still sells at a $100 discount, are ineligible.
On a brighter note, I think I will be getting a Macbook Pro, in a day or so, so not all is lost
