Brad Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 The graphic and link below will automatically update on Friday when the sale goes live: http://www.ftjcfx.com/image-1412508-10512522 Anyone remember if they had anything decent in their sale last year? Were any Apple products on sale or was it just accessories?
cmancdf1 Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 Last year it was just accessories and some refurbished, old-gen ipods if my memory serves me correct. You can usually get the same prices by using the education discount portion of their site.
jedigirl21 Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 Actually the ipods were on sale last year. I looked for but cannot find my receipts. It was just a small amount off but that was better than going to a store; it may have been a percentage off. I bought my DD's nano and DS's 30gig in the morning on black friday. I'll keep looking and revise the post if I find the receipts.
RobD Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 I bought my DH the Product Red Nano last year on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving at apple.com. I found out about the discount here on GottaDeal the next day and called apple on Black Friday and they allowed me the discount. I believe it was a 10% discount. HTH Rob D
decorator21 Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 If I remember correctly it was 5% off. Free engraving and free shipping, which they seem to have all the time.
lilac100 Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 Funny I bought newest 8gb iPod Nano through Amazon today. I think it was 10% off. It was $180 plus shipping.

uncdwm Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 hmm so i'm not seeing any sales. plus i re-read the "black friday sale" verbiage and it simply states "free shipping" now. BFD.
threelittlecupcakes Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 *Shopping event is available only at the Apple Online Store on Friday, November 23, 2007, from 12:01 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. PST and at Apple Retail Stores. Check your local Apple Retail Store for special hours. Sale prices are available while supplies last.
uncdwm Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 Aha so PST huh. i have a $213 store credit to Apple and was going to get an iPod Nano for my GF with it. Hoping they have a good % off or some deal with iPods. Otherwise, I can already get 5-6% off, free shipping, free engraving, etc. through work. It's sad that CC and Amazon and other stores can sell the product for cheaper (and include gift certificate bennies) than the manufacturer store can do.
kren Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 BF ad link has changed to "shop now" but there are no deals to be found. Go figure.
buttaflye Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 Now says that they are updating the site! Stay tuned!
frobelife Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 3:15 and still waiting for the apple store to refresh. hope they have some good deals to make up for their lateness...
sickngiht Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 this is horrible. There will probably be nothing good, and I just wasted my precious sleep time.
toongirl Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 wonder what's taking apple so long... 3:25 and still nothing. I gotta go to Kohl's in a minute -- arg!
buttaflye Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 this is horrible. There will probably be nothing good, and I just wasted my precious sleep time.I'm fearing this as well.
frobelife Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 3:26... i love apple and all, but i also love sleep. it was 2:30 and i figured it would only be another 30 minutes and i was going to buy some stuff anyway. now an hour has crawled by and no update. oh apple... how you love to toy with my emotions and sleep needs...
frobelife Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 maybe they don't have their system preferences set to automatically update the clock and they forgot to do the time change and they are an hour off.
buttaflye Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 iPod nano Save $11.00 . Free laser engraving. From $138.00 iPod shuffle Save $11.00 . Free laser engraving. Just $68.00 iPod classic Save up to $31.00 . Free laser engraving. From $228.00
riphamilton Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 if you need laser engraving on an ipod it's not a bad deal, but you're only saving ~5%.... amazon's regular price is cheaper
jason.nina Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 Amazon lowered their price on Shuffle to match Apple ... plus no tax!
uncdwm Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 bought a 4gb nano and 8gb nano for $305 total after using $22 off for black friday and 6-7% for company discount. subtract my $213 gift card, add tax = just over $100 for 2 ipods. not too bad i guess. best buy and other stores are offering $10-30 gift cards with purchase but oh well i got rid of my gift card and it's probably the cheapest i could ever get them from apple.
browntown Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 I like apple and all...BUT, come on..do a real sale for all the stuff you sell! I hate how it is so fair priced...5 bucks off is still money...but you would think they could do a little more here and there...
TradeViceroy Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 I like apple and all...BUT, come on..do a real sale for all the stuff you sell! I hate how it is so fair priced...5 bucks off is still money...but you would think they could do a little more here and there...Apple has a very strict pricing policy that all Apple affiliates must follow. A store would risk losing their affiliate status if they lower the price more than other stores. A lot of stores get around the policy by offering freebies if you buy an iPod on top of the small discount. It's Apple's sinister way of keeping all the prices uniform.
Lidstrom Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 Apple uses price controls, for whatever reason. As long as Apple gets the same cut, why not let a store sell it at a loss if they want to? Things like this serve only to slow Apple's growth in the market.
threelittlecupcakes Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 Well I for one am happy with the sale as it paid for my sales tax. I like that I could get it engraved (8gb Nano) and that it has already shipped!
