Definitely agree. Speaking for myself, I’m glad that Apple offers a Veterans discount. It’s the same as the edu discount — 10% off.

When I got my Series 7, I was able to upgrade the band and still save $20 off the final price?

I wonder, does the edu store make you prove that you’re a student/teacher/other before you can use it?
