Some people weren’t too impressed with Apple’s recently announced back to school promotion because it only offered a $100 gift card to the Mac App Store, instead of a deal on an iPod or other hardware. Best Buy hopes to fill that need by offering students $100 Best Buy gift card.

To qualify for the offer you need to be either a student, registered as a student for the fall, a teacher, or a parent of a student. If you meet one of those criteria, and you’re buying a Mac, you’re $100.00 richer today.
