As a brief aside, the Apple Store's usual Black Friday gift card offer is now live through Dec. 2; M2 and M3 MacBooks come with free vouchers worth up to $200. That doesn't beat any of the dollars-off discounts available elsewhere, but it could be a practical option for those enmeshed in the Apple ecosystem.

The 13-inch Apple MacBook Air M3 with a 256GB SSD is available for less than $1,000 from Best Buy after a $250 discount for Black Friday. Hurry if you want it!

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.
