Apple black friday sales?

Sign in to disble this ad
How are the Apple black friday sales? I was looking to upgrade my iTouch... I can get the 10% rebate on a new one for recycling my old one with them, but y'know, 10% isn't that much. Amazon is already selling them for basically 10% off for Friday.

Basically, would Apple add the 10% I would get from recycling my iTouch with them to any sale price they'll have??

Black Friday a few years aback I got a Bluetooth Mighty Mouse for 20% off.

Your best bet would be to go in or call in on Friday and ask.

Apple's Black Friday sales are very similar to the Student discounts on their computers and some amount, near 10% off iPods and some accessories. As you may know, Apple never gives "percentages off," just dollar amounts depending on the item. Your best bet is to go to the store on Friday or call ahead and speak with a manager.

Blah blah blah I'm a biased jerk get off my lawn.

Make sure you get one of good capacity (i.e. MORE THAN 8 GIGS) I owned the 8 gig model and did not enjoy it. But, then again, I don't think I gave it enough of a chance....

In any rate, I wish you better luck than I had with mine. Also, a good case is a good investment.

There are plenty of reasons for him to get an iPod Touch if that is what he wants. Internet browsing, checking mail, YouTube, and the thousand upon thousands of apps that work perfectly on the iPod Touch. As long as he is willing to compromise storage for increased functionality, he is going to be really satisfied.

You are right, I edit my original post.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience with the device. I would highly suggest giving it another try, if you ever have the opportunity. You might end up really enjoying it.

Yes, currently I have an 8 gig that I got last October.... Never though I'd be one of the guys with 3000+ songs on their iTunes So I'm looking to get the 32 gig.

Also, I've beaten my 8 gig to hell. I've already broken the screen and audio input once, replaced both, and broke them again. I've gotta invest in a case this time

Hey...for once I will be interested in these. You can also check out MacMall. They will have some good deals.

Yeah, case is good.
