First Glimpse at Black Friday Discounts

November 27, 2008

Apple has posted special Black Friday discount prices on its Australia and UK Web store site, offering price reductions ranging from just 4.1 percent to 7.7 percent on selected models of iPods, Apple TVs, Macbooks and iMacs. The discounts may be similar to those offered in Apple’s retail stores around the world as they open on Friday. An analysis by the ZDnet Web site show no pattern to the discounts, the highest discount is on the 2.0 GHz Macbook, and there are no price reductions on Macbook Pro or Mac Pro models. Apple is offering higher discounts on certain software (Photoshop Elements 6 is 42% off), speakers, headphones, computer bags and iPod cases. [The Italian on-line store discounts seem to be slightly higher. Update: In-store prices are posted, and they are very similar to the Australia and UK discounts, and are limited to the same set of products.]

Apple is offering the Black Friday sale in Canada, great for the consumer but last time I checked, we were Canadian. Seems like Christmas and Thanksgiving get overlooked due to the new shopping holidays the U.S. have created. Are we too overlook the meaning of these holidays?
Sad.
No wonder China is starting to become the new world leader!
