Staples and Best Buy have both kicked off significant iPad sales. First, Staples is taking $100 off all iPad Air WiFi models when you enter coupon code 79449 at checkout. That means the entry-level 16GB model is only $399, which is $20 less then Apple charges for it in refurbished condition. At the time of posting, all storage capacities except for the 128GB model are available in both Space Gray and Silver.
Best Buy has the MacBook Air 1.4GHz 4GB/128GB SSD 13.3-inch for $848.99 shipped. Apply EDU email discount of $100 to drop the price to $749.99 shipped. That’s the lowest price we can find on a 13.3-inch Haswell MacBook Air new. (Choose open box to drop the price another $51 to $698).

It’s been a little over 2 months since Target first sent waves through the Apple deal world by offering the iPad mini for just $199. We haven’t seen a comparable sale since that time, but that drought looks to be ending on Sunday, August 17th… Expand Expanding Close
This is an excellent case for iPad mini users, especially those that are tough on their devices or give them to kids. It is fully submergible to 6.6 feet for 60 minutes in water and meets military standards for drops up to four feet. LifeProof declares that it is the “thinnest, lightest, toughest, most advanced tablet case ever made”.
Note that this is listed for non-retina iPad Minis because it covers the backside noise canceling mic on the sliiiiightly thicker iPad Mini Retina but should otherwise work properly.

August is proving to be a big month over at Netflix, as the the popular content streaming service continues to add new titles each month.
Perhaps none bigger than the addition of all of the Rocky films, which were previously unavailable for streaming. Another classic film coming to Netflix this month will be Mad Max, the classic 1970’s Mel Gibson tough-guy film. In addition, Netflix will be offering recently released films, such as Mission Blue, the popular documentary that highlights the efforts being made around the world to save the ocean, its resources and beautiful sanctuaries.
Update: If you need something to stream your Netflix to the big screen, Walmart is offering the Roku 1 for $39 right now (Reg. $49+), which is the lowest price we can find anywhere.

Even the biggest critics of warrantees generally agree that AppleCare for Macs is a worthwhile investment if you have the room in your budget. In fact, it consistently pummels competition in Consumer Reports’ yearly tech support survey.
AppleCare for Macs extends the original 1-year hardware and 90-day phone support to 3-years. This is extremely valuable for Mac owners since these beautiful laptops are nearly impossible to repair for the average consumer and out-of-pocket repairs are extremely costly from Apple. Unfortunately, it does not cover accidental damage to your Mac, but one repair instance is likely to pay for the upfront cost of the plan.
Unlike iPhone and iPad AppleCare Protection Plans, it can be added to any Mac within 1-year of purchase. Each standalone AppleCare box will include a code that you can register online to your Mac’s serial number.
Here’s where to save 30% on AppleCare for 13 and 15-inch MacBooks, which is less than Apple’s .edu pricing: Expand Expanding Close

Last month Target set the deal world ablaze with its $199 iPad mini deal. This major retailer looks primed to once again launch an unprecedented iPad sale.
According to a leaked ad scan that has shown up on several online forums and blogs, starting this Sunday July 6th, Target will offer free $100 gift cards with the purchase of an iPad Air or iPad with Retina display. The ad only mentions 16GB capacities of both models, but also states “other Wi-Fi models available” for iPad Air, so this discount may apply to more configurations beyond 16GB. We won’t know for sure until the deal page goes live later this weekend.
We have frequently seen the iPad Air drop to $400 via eBay Daily Deals, but this is the first time we have seen a current generation iPad promotion of this caliber from a major retailer.
It has a 1080p native resolution with a 120Hz refresh rate, LED backlight, USB, and two HDMI inputs.
Also, Dell is offering the LG 47″ 1080p 60Hz Smart LED TV for only $649.99 shipped. When you add it to your cart, you’ll notice a FREE $300 Dell PROMO eGift Card has been added as well. That’s $150 off the list price and a total savings of $450 with the Gift Card.
The LG lets you access premium content from providers like Hulu Plus, Netflix and YouTube directly from your TV. It has 3X HDMI ports, it’s Energy Star certified, it has 2:2 pull down compensation, Picture Wizard, Simplink, Wi-Fi Direct, Resolution Upscaler, Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL) and Picture Mode.
If you’re looking for Ultra-High Defintion, check out our selection of 4K TV’s on sale right now.
This caribiner-shaped Lightning charge and sync cable is made from an engineering-grade polycarbonate and high grade steel so it can withstand some tough love. Clip it onto your backpack, belt loop, or keychain to make sure you’re never without a Lightning cable.
The entire Nomad product line has also been refreshed with MFi certification. This includes the ChargeKey ($29), which was born from a successful Kickstarter campaign. This handy charger is just about the size of a key and is durable enough to dangle an iPhone, flexible enough to bend at a 90 degree angle, and is Apple-certified to charge and sync your Lightning equipped devices. Of course, you can pick up much longer MFi Lightning cables for less, but they don’t offer the same convenience that the Chargekey does.
The card sized NomadCard ($29) also gained MFi certification and is “designed to fit in your wallet just like a credit card, so you’ll always have a smartphone charging cable on you.”
All three of these new products are now available for preorder and are expected to ship by the end of November.
Each product is also available with Micro USB. For a limited time, coupon code LIVESIMPLE will slash 25% off your total purchase. Note: the unique link we used for this post will pop-up a different coupon code but ignore it. Use the one mentioned above (LIVESIMPLE) as it has a higher value.
Best Buy is taking up to 58% off select iPad mini Smart Covers, which yields prices from $16.99. Orders of $35+ ship free or you can opt for in-store pickup to dodge freight charges. It’s rare to see a discount this large on retail-packaged, current generation Apple products.
A must have accessory for many iPad owners, the Smart Cover snaps into place thanks to perfectly positioned magnets, has sleep/wake functionality, and can be folded into a stand to make viewing movies and typing more comfortable. It’s compatible with the first generation iPad mini and newest iPad mini with Retina display. Expand Expanding Close
Woot is running a Roku Mania sale today matching some of the lowest prices we’ve seen on factory reconditioned units. You can grab the factory refurbished Roku 3 Streaming Media Player for $61.99 + $5 shipping. That’s $33 off the regular new price, $13 under Amazon’s price and $1 under the lowest we’ve seen it go for.
You can pick up the Roku 2 (2013 Model) for $40 + $5 shipping. That’s $35 under the regular new price, and the lowest refurbished price we can find. Lastly, Woot has the Roku 1 for $29.99 + $5 shipping. That’s $25 under the regular new price, $5 under Amazon refurbs, and matching lowest we’ve seen a factory reconditioned unit go for.
Roku features:
1,000+ entertainment channels. Choose from the best selection and widest variety of streaming entertainment, including movies, TV shows, music, sports, news, and more
Stunning HD video quality. Immerse yourself in the action with rich, vibrant video streaming up to 1080p HD

Channel shortcut buttons. Jump straight to favorites with one push of the remote
One-stop search. Find your favorite movies and shows in a flash from top channels like Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video, VUDU, and MGo
With both the Roku 2 and 3, you’ll get a “remote with headphone jack for private listening” and access to iOS and Android apps so you can “stream your music and photos from your phone or tablet to your HDTV.”
Today’s deals all come with a 90 day warranty directly from Roku and each of the above boxes have at least scored a 4/5 stars or higher from hundreds of Amazon customers. Note the $5 shipping is a flat fee at Woot, meaning your whole order comes for that price regardless of how many items are in your cart.
Update (6/18 8:00am): The original listing for the iPad Air has sold out, but has been re-listed.
Blutek USA via eBay Daily Deals offers a 16GB iPad Air WiFi for $399.99 with free shipping. That’s $99 below list and the best price we have ever seen for Apple’s newest full-size tablet.

Less than two weeks ago, Apple began offering its education customers modest iPad discounts, but now Best Buy has stepped up and basically made them irrelevant. The new Best Buy student deals that launched yesterday extend a $50 discount to all iPad Air and Retina iPad mini models, which is up to two and a half times as much as Apple’s edu pricing.
You’ll need to furnish a .edu email address to qualify for these Best Buy discounts, but once you receive your unique coupon code you can choose to make your purchase online or at any retail location. Of course, we recommend following us closely to stay up with all the best iPad deals, but if there aren’t any current deals and you’re in desperate need of an iPad, then Best Buy’s edu pricing is likely your best bet.
A 16GB WiFi iPad becomes just $299 when you take into account the free gift card. According to the marketing materials we’ve received, over a dozen 4th gen. iPads qualify for this promo. The gift card can only be used towards a future purchase and the ad warns that quantities are limited. Here’s the product listing for reference, but you’ll have to trek out to a Walmart store to make your purchase.
It features a 9.7-inch Retina display, A6X chip, and a Lightning connector.
It’s that time of the year again to get Dad something special. So we put together a list of highly rated and currently discounted tech, sports/outdoors, and clothing items so you can save a few bucks doing it:
Beginning this Sunday, June 8th, Target stores are reportedly planning one of the best iPad deals we’ve seen since Black Friday. According to an early ad scan obtained by the Times Union blog, Target will offer the first generation iPad mini for just $199. To put this deal in perspective you must consider that just yesterday Apple dropped its refurbished price for the same model down to $219 and we considered that a slam dunk deal.
Originally released in fall of 2012, the iPad mini is still apart of Apple’s current iPad lineup and will receive iOS 8 later this year. It features a 7.9-inch LED-backlist display, dual-core A5 chip, and up to 10-hours of battery life.
The ad warns that only limited quantities are available so we would highly recommend getting to your local Target store before it opens.
It has a 7.9-inch LED-backlit Multi-Touch Display with a 1024-by-768 Max resolution. It comes with iOS 6 and has the Dual-Core A5 Chip. It comes equipped with a 5MP iSight Camera and has 1080p HD video recording. It also carries up to 10 hours of battery life and weighs only 0.68 lbs.
RadioShack is offering one of the best discounts you’ll find on a new iPhone 5s or iPhone 5c on contract. These are in-store prices, but for just $79 (Reg. $199) you’ll be able to get a 16GB iPhone 5s on new or upgraded two-year contract. That includes AT&T, Verizon and Sprint and you can even slash that price further from $79 to $0 by taking advantage of RadioShack’s trade-in offers for the iPhone 4s.
RadioShack is also offering a similar discount on the iPhone 5c. The entry-level 16GB model (Reg. $99) is available for just $29 (or for free with an eligible trade-in). That deal is also available on all three carriers including AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint. Both of these deals are approximately $20 under the best deals we see pop up from time to time through various retailers. Expand Expanding Close

The NX-P100 has received a 3.9/5 star rating on Amazon

Update: 5/19 (1pm): The 23″ Dell Monitor has sold out.
Today we’re seeing a number of high quality HD displays with great discounts. The first, at Newegg, is the Dell S2340M 23-Inch Screen LED-lit Monitor for $159.99. Use the coupon code: EMCYTZG339 at checkout to drop it to only $119.99 shipped. That makes it $100 under the list price, $30 less than Amazon’s current listing, and the lowest we could find. It features ultra-wide viewing and Full HD resolution 1920 x 1080 in a 16:9 widescreen format. Also, you can easily connect to your laptop or desktop with VGA and DVI-D (HDCP) connectivity.
Next, we found the Samsung 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz Smart LED TV (UN40H6350) on Amazon for a low $573.09 shipped. That’s $175 off it’s list price and the lowest we’ve seen for it. It has a quick 120Hz refresh rate that allows for gaming and action packed movies to look flawless and 4 HDMI, 3 USB, and 1 Component inputs for connecting all your devices. It received 4/5 stars and positive reviews.
Other than special launching pricing this is the only time we’ve seen the app discounted since version 2.0 dropped back in late March. The updated version features a host of new improvements like My Fleksy Cloud syncing, new themes, 8 new languages and a new achievement system.
Fleksy is a new, revolutionary keyboard, powered by patent pending technology that makes typing on any device fast, accurate and so easy you can type without even looking.
Download and install Fleksy once and it will automatically be available on all other Fleksy enabled apps. Long tap or double tap on the screen from any Fleksy enabled app to switch between keyboards.

One of the best ways to get a discount on brand new Macs has typically been Apple’s education pricing, but that’s not true this release cycle. Best Buy has been offering customers with .edu email addresses a $150 savings on nearly all MacBooks but until now the brand new April 2014 MacBook Airs were excluded.
Best Buy has lifted the ban on these models so you can use your unique education discount on any of the new MacBook Airs, which will net you the entry-level 11-inch model for just $749.99 with free shipping (17% off). As a pricing comparison, Apple only offers its education customers a $50 discount on this same model. This is currently the best pricing you’ll find on a new condition MacBook Air from the past two years since the EOL deal is now sold out.
Walmart just slashed the price of its 16GB iPad minis by $30 just in time for Mother’s Day this weekend. We see the iPad mini get as low as $50 off from time to time, but this might be your best deal of the day and weekend if you need to pick up an iPad for mom.
Amazon is offering the TechMatte Power Pod Qi Wireless Charger for $24.99 (Prime) shipped. Enter the coupon code: POD10OFF at checkout to make it only $14.99. That’s $55 off the list price and the lowest price we’ve ever seen for a Qi charger.

Ebay is offering the manufacturer refurbished ASUS Google Nexus 7 2nd Gen 32 GB Wi-Fi tablet (2013) for $169.99 shipped.
