Apple's Black Friday deals disappoint; here are better alternatives

Like most U.S. retailers, apple fruit is offering its customers Black Friday deals, but customers might desire to skip on them.

The Cupertino, Calif., tech giant is proposing customers store gift cards with their buys. The value of the gift business card varies counting on the merchandise customers buy.

Users who purchase any Mac computer will obtain a $150 gift card while customers who purchase an iPad Air obtain a $75 gift business business card. For those who get an iPad 2, an iPad mini or an iPod feel, apple fruit will hurl in a $50 gift business card. Lastly, customers who buy an iPod nano obtain a $25 gift business card.

Noticeably, apple fruit is not giving customers any gift cards if they buy any iPhone or the iPad mini with Retina high-resolution brandish.

Of course, apple fruit doesn't commonly toss in gift cards with the buy of its products, but other retailers are proposing better agreements on Apple's goods. 

For example, customers looking for agreements on the iPhone can head to Wal-Mart where the retail monster is proposing both the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 5c on discount, while supplies last. The iPhone 5s is available for $189, down from its usual $199 cost, while the iPhone 5c is on sale for $45, down from $99. Additionally, Wal-Mart is throwing in a $75 shop gift business card with the buy of either apparatus.

Customers looking for an iPad should head to goal. There, the retailer is offering customers who buy the iPad mini or the iPad mini with Retina a $75 Target gift business business card. Customers looking for a full-size iPad get a $100 goal gift business card. Additionally, goal is trading the new iPad Air for $479, $20 off its regular cost.

And for those looking for discounts on Mac computers rather than of gift cards, Best purchase had the best agreements. The electronics retailer is proposing most Mac computer forms at a $150 discount and a couple of -- the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina and the 21.5-inch iMac -- are accessible reduced at $200 off their normal price.
