<p class="MsoPlainText">Currently a good source of pricing for iPads is the <a href="http://www.remcbids.org/catalog/view/cat/21444/">
REMC Device Purchasing</a> bid. List price for a 128GB Mini 4 is $399. The <a href="http://www.remcbids.org/catalog/view/cat/81059/item/39860/">
REMC price is $364</a> (the purchase window for this offer ends Sept. 30). You have to jump through some hoops to purchase via this method, but after you do it once, you are poised to use it again in the future.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">Hello everyone -<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">We would like to give away an iPad Mini as an incentive prize and I wondered if it is best simply to puchase this through the Apple site or if there is a better way to do this. Any advice would be much appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
