At first I saw '20% Off iTunes Cards', then I read closer.... it's BOGO 20% off, which means it's really only 10% off.

I see more and more stores doing this type of deceptive advertising of BOGO this year. It's happened in the past, but not as frequently as this year.

When I see a store saying 'BOGO 50% off' instead of '25% off' it makes me think less of that store, and equate them with swindlers.

Dang, at first glance I thought it was $200 off of the regular Macbook... Anyone know of any current deals on the little 12" chap?

I want to get an 8 Plus (256GB), but it's only $100 off for that model at Best Buy, which isn't a lot considering the original price of the phone.

Verizon has had no deals on the 8, even on Black Friday. Sigh.

Picked up a mini 4 for a family member. Great deal. Wish they had deals on 12.9 inch pros!

That's a good deal on the iPad Mini 4.

Not sure if I'm allowed to mention, though, that their iMac prices are rather high - even on sale. I just bought one at B&H for several hundred dollars less than Best Buy's "sale" price.

I will wait for Monday the 11th, as the door buster deal will be on the iPad. Hopefully the 128 gig model.
