Students and parents of students should remember that Best Buy's Student Deals provide an extra $50 off Mac notebooks, further lowering the savings seen in today's MacBook Pro sale.
iPhone X - Save $100 with qualified activation on installment plan with AT&T, Verizon, or Sprint
MacBook Pro - Save $250–300 on select models / as low as $1499.99 with Student Deals
The retailer also has a few other deals that are extending beyond today, including the chance for customers to get a minimum $125 gift card when trading in select iPad models (in-store only, ends May 5, 2018). Specifically, you'll get the gift card when you trade in a working iPad mini 2 (with Retina display), mini 3, mini 4, Air, Air 2, iPad Pro, or fifth-generation iPad. This makes a nice companion deal for anyone upgrading to Apple's new sixth-generation iPad.
Additionally, there are other configurations of the MacBook Pro that will see a sale price of $200 off ($250 for students and parents of students) extend into this upcoming week, ending Saturday, April 7.
