Apple’s Black Friday sale teaser posted to website

Retail

There are plenty of ways to spend your money on Black Friday, but some people are too lazy to be bothered with trekking out before sunrise and battling mobs of shoppers. Or maybe there are still a few people out there with some self respect. In either case, we have to cherish every opportunity to save some dough this Black Friday that doesn’t involve elbowing 60-year-old women in the jaw. While the words “Apple” and “sale” don’t align as often as most would like, the crew from Cupertino apparently decided to take advantage of the sale craze this year. A teaser is now up on Apple’s site inviting customers to visit the Apple Online Store this Friday for “dozens of great iPad, iPod, and Mac gifts.” We doubt Apple’s deals will be spectacular, but it will be nice to save a few bucks if you were already planning on ordering up some new Apple kit. It all goes down on Friday, November 26th, so get those credit cards ready.

    I knew it. This is the beginning of the end. Apple is bankrupt. Google did it! Finally. What will us Goofans (aka Apple Haters) do when Apple goes under in the next few months. I know, we did it! We took down the devil and our lord and savior Eric Schmidt will take over the world and take care of us by giving us EVERYTHING we want!

      Everything we want? What’s stopping from doing that now? Google has the chance now. So far all they’ve done is give us a Search Engine [Oh yes, Yahoo and Bing is also an SE], DOCS online [Meh, not that great to be honest], a browser based on webkit [who else has that???], and a crappy phone OS.

      Ya…Google is taking over the world…LOL

      Hi. Me (Goofan (aka Apple Hater)) and Norm have no job and no life. We hit refresh on BGR all day long waiting for Apple news so we can post what we think are funny Android notes. We are clueless and don’t get that we are lame and not creative at all, but at least this gives us something to do with our loser lives.

      Good job catching all those little fishies… they fell for that hook, line, and sinker. Wish I could like this twice.

    The last time they had a “sale” I went to the site out of curiosity and it was all of 10% off. ha!!

    For Black Friday if they intend on doing that again, itll be a huge joke of a sale.

      hey as of now the best price i can find on Macbook is $65 off at Mac Mall. If they take 10% off of $1000 it still saves a little. Sucks, but at least you know what youre getting. Would be really nice if they threw in free OS X upgrade next year.

      Apple should drop the hell out of the prices of their refubs on Black Friday.

      10% off of a 1500 macbook pro, is 150 bucks.. so thats pretty good imho… i mean.. not enough to make me grab one if i dont need it.. but if i were in the market. id be ecstatic

      • pepper

        considering other laptops are going for dirt cheap…$150 dollars isnt anything to brag about.

        you have televisions for 1000 off at sears and other electronics being cut by hundreds. in todays economic climate with that sort of discount on black friday, its laughable.

        for their sake, i hope they take some initiative and put it at least 20%+.

    I am guessing they will have free monogramming – on the top AND the bottom of the device. If they are feeling really generous, maybe they will send a card with a code for ONE Beattles’ song.

    Thank God Apple isn’t concerned with what people think they should to. Their business stays strong because they don’t take advice from people who know nothing about business, i.e. the customer.

    “If I had listened to what my customers wanted I would have been building faster horses, not automobiles.”

      Haha! that’s funny because they also say “you can have any color you want as long as it’s black”.

    im dreaming of a $399 ipad…

      Dreaming is the correct word

      T.J.Maxx raised quite stir last week when the word got out that they will sell heavily discounted Apple iPads on Black Friday. Photos of $399.99 ($100 off) iPad 16GB appeared and then T.J.Maxx even confirmed that the $399.99 iPad would be available on Black Friday in select stores in very limited quantities. Just maybe one or two hours after we reported about the T.J.Maxx iPad deal, the company tweeted that the iPads are on sale now. I congratulate everybody who scored a $399.99 iPad at T.J.Maxx and Marshalls last week.

    This must have been the unforgettable, day we’ll never forget news that Jobs was talking about. Apple actually having something that remotely, in a galaxy far far far far far away, in an alternate universe 3 billion years from now – even resembles a “sale”. Allow me to etch this date into my skin Steve Blow Jobs.

    Unlucky for me as I already ordered my apple xmas presents on Monday! :@
