With Summer in full gear and school just around the corner in almost a month, now is a good time to take advantage of the various “Back to School” sales and and promotions that are running. Joining in on the fun, Apple has started their annual promotion a bit earlier than what most people expected. Most notably in Apple’s “Back to School” savings event is the discounts on their line of MacBook Pros, iMacs, as well as the iPad. For those wanting to get the very best deal possible should probably consider shopping around and compare prices from other retailers like Best Buy, RadioShack, Fry’s Electronics and more. Another thing you should consider while shopping around is if it’s an instant rebate, cash, or some sort of a giftcard. To give you an example, Best Buy is offering an instant rebate for college-level students where as Apple is offering an in-store giftcard which can only be spend on their products.

Moving forward with Apple’s “Back to School” event, this promotion extends to college students, parents of students, as well as teachers. Also no need to be in a rush to decide on what you want to buy, the deadline to receive your Apple Store Giftcard is September 9th, 2014, so have plenty of the time to save up or choose what you want.
