Apple Black Friday - The Only Apple Sale of the Year

In general, Apple does not have sales. Black Friday, November 25, is the one time of the year Apple retail has a sale.

Apple’s Black Friday sales have included free credit on iTunes, the App Store or an Apple Store Gift Card, as well as full rebates on iPod Touches and other items. There are usually one or two models of Macs marked down $50 – $150, along with discounts on iPad models.

Retail stores that are authorized to sell Apple products are limited by Apple in the amount they can offer, but there are some outlets that sweeten Apple Black Friday deals by offering bundles that include enticing gift cards, rebates and other items.

We are still waiting on the official Apple Black Friday ad, in the meanwhile, we scoured the internet for advance Apple Black Friday ads from other retailers. *Update – The Apple retail stores are featuring a “one-day shopping event” and the prices were released early morning on Black Friday.
