Beyond the modest educational discount program for students and teachers, discounts aren’t really Apple’s thing, but major retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart do regularly have Black Friday deals on Apple products.

It's true that if you're shopping straight from the Apple Store, you won't see any special deals ahead of Nov. 29. On Black Friday proper, Apple is giving out gift cards up to $200 on eligible purchases of iPhones, MacBooks, AirPods, and more.

If you’ve waited all year to splurge on an Apple device, Black Friday is a good time to buy that Apple Watch or iPad at a discount.
