Apple recently raised prices on many of its products, but the company is now promoting two ways for shoppers to save on new hardware purchases: sales tax holidays and a Back to School deal.
If you’re in the market for a new Apple product purchase, the company is currently promoting two ways to save on Apple.com.
Sales tax holidays are in effect this summer for a variety of US states on select dates. Alabama’s just wrapped up last weekend, but the nine other states include:
- Arkansas: Aug 1-2
- Florida: Jul 20-Aug 20
- Massachusetts: Aug 8-9
- Missouri: Aug 7-9
- New Mexico: Jul 31-Aug 2
- South Carolina: Aug 7-9
- Tennessee: Jul 31-Aug 2
- Virginia: Aug 7-9
- West Virginia: Jul 31-Aug 3
These holidays all have varying specific terms, outlined here. But being able to buy a new Apple product tax-free can bring nice savings, especially in states with high limits.
Apple is also currently running a Back to School deal on select Mac and iPad hardware.
Now through August 27, qualified purchasers (including students and educators) can get up to a $150 gift card for buying a new Mac or iPad.
MacBook Pro is the only product that earns that highest $150 Apple gift card. If you buy a MacBook Air, iPad Pro, or iPad Air, you can get a $100 gift card.
Depending on the products you’re interested in, you might find better deals elsewhere. For example, current Amazon deals on Apple products include:
