Black Friday 2013: Apple Product Discounts Still Available Online

[MacRumors]

With Black Friday well under way, many of the best deals have already sold out, or were only available in-store only. Here's a list of what's still available online.

Apple Store

Apple's online Black Friday sale continues until tonight with gift cards ranging from $50-$150 depending on model.

Apple's Black Friday sale is over.

iTunes Gift Cards, Accessories and Mac Software

- $100 iTunes Gift Card - $85 ($15 off)
- Apple TV - $85 ($15 off)

- Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 - $49.99 ($50 off)

iPad Air

iPads were quick to sell out from various locations. BestBuy is sold out online for many products, but they still offer $50-$70 discounted prices for iPad Airs for online order with the option for in-store pickup.

MacMall now offers lower discounted prices on the iPad Air, though you may have to call them directly to reserve it at that price.

- iPad Air Wi-Fi - $20-$34 Off
- iPad Air Wi-Fi + Cellular - $20-$34 Off

BHPhotoVideo also has similar discounts for iPad Airs.

MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac

The deepest Mac discounts from BestBuy sold out quickly. But some still remain:

- 15" Retina MacBook Pros - $150 off
- 21.5" iMac - $200 off

MacMall's Black Friday Mac sales continues with online availability:

I always get a deal with Apple regardless of holiday specials or not.

FYI: BHphotovideo has Air on sale

It's on sale plus no tax in most states including CA so it may be better than the $100 gift card from Target.

I don't understand why Apple wouldn't give the gift card on a sale today in the education store too.

 

[Lunfai]

No discount on rMini... hmm

I don't understand why Apple wouldn't give the gift card on a sale today in the education store too.

Probably because they offer the back to school promotion in the fall with gift cards

 

[preyan]

Is the Best Buy $100 voucher for $85 emailed or posted ie is the voucher code emailed?

 

[seecoolguy]

Can the gift card be applied to the current purchase or only for a future purchase?

 

[bbeagle]

Only future purchase. Are you serious?

 

[Konrad9]

Lower profit margin on the education store, so they "can't afford" to give away a gift card.

 

[Primejimbo]

Do these gift cards apply to refurbished stuff too from Apple.com?

 

[numlock]

Only future purchase. Are you serious?

but are they digital or do you receive them right away by email?

i mean could i order one item and use that code on my next order?

 

[doboy]

i mean could i order one item and use that code on my next order?

Yes, that what it means as future purchase.

Definitely better if you live in California. Sales tax on a MacBook Pro is killer.

 

[mpantone]

According to Apple, the gift card redemption code is e-mailed within 24 hours after the product ships or is available for pickup.

I was quite pleased to see that my redemption code arrived just a couple hours after I had placed my order. So yes, I can use it right away. I'll pick up my order at the local Apple Store later today, will probably spend the gift card on the spot.

Speaking frankly, I never find the Apple deals particularly attractive, the price drops aren't that great compared to Refurbished units.

It would be nice to see Apple offer better deals like other manufactures do, but oh well .

Staples does have $200 off on the Macbook Air though, which is awesome..

 

[KompleX]

i'm really tempted to buy the ipad air but i don't really need it! what should i do???

 

[mpantone]

Buy some shares of AAPL instead. Or donate some money to a local charity.

Mindlessly buying expensive gadgets for no specific purpose is a bit wasteful, no? Anyhow, it's up to you to figure out what to do with your dollars.

Good luck.

 

[FlunkedFlank]

Wait ... Huh? Who has no sales tax in CA? Is that just for today?

BH photo. Not sure how long it will last. They only charge tax in NY, afaik. I've purchased from them before and they are legit.

Students have always enough money.

Someone's jealous because he bought an Apple product when it wasn't on sale
Also, I would not recommend buying AAPL at the moment unless it's short term. Getting my sell order ready.

Since I missed the Target $100 gift card offer for the iPad Air (yes, it's still in store, but I want a cellular model that is sold out online, which is the only place they sell them)--which was the best for me since I shop at Target regularly and it'd be as good as cash--I think I might just pass.

...and get a used iPad 4 on eBay instead. I could buy almost two for the price of an Air, and the only disadvantage is that it's not a universal LTE model. The rest of the specs are nearly identical. (Yes, the processor is better, but I don't think that's going to matter for a while now, and it's lighter and slightly narrower, but it's not like any of the previous gens had a bulk problem.)

 

[Shade12]

What If I don't want a gift card. Maybe apply credit to my purchase ? Not a deal. No apple greedy
