As Black Friday looms on the horizon, Amazon has already rolled out an impressive collection of pre-Black Friday deals on Apple products. These early-bird discounts are giving shoppers a chance to score incredible savings before the annual shopping frenzy begins. Whether you’re eyeing the latest iPhone, upgrading your MacBook, or looking to buy an Apple Watch or AirPods, now is the time to get in on these deals. But why should you jump on these offers right now, and what exactly does Amazon have in store for Apple fans? In this article, we’ll explore the who, what, when, where, and why of Amazon’s pre-Black Friday Apple deals. We’ll break down the products available, how significant the discounts are, and why you should consider making a purchase sooner rather than later. If you’re a tech enthusiast or someone looking to gift a loved one an Apple device, you won’t want to miss out on these offers. What Are Pre-Black Friday Apple Deals on Amazon? Amazon’s pre-Black Friday deals are a special category of discounts that offer shoppers an opportunity to buy items at reduced prices ahead of the traditional Black Friday rush. While Black Friday sales officially kick off the day after Thanksgiving, Amazon has a long history of offering early deals on a wide range of products, including top-of-the-line Apple devices. The beauty of pre-Black Friday sales is that you get the best of both worlds – early access to deals without the stress of shopping on the actual day. Amazon’s deals aren’t just limited to Apple’s flagship products, like the iPhone and MacBook; they often include accessories, such as AirPods, Apple Watches, and even Apple’s smart home devices. What’s more, the discounts are available for a limited time, making it all the more crucial to act fast. Why Shop Early for Apple Products? You might wonder, why should you shop for Apple products early when Black Friday is still a few weeks away? The answer lies in the competition and the limited availability of some of the most popular Apple products. Apple items, especially newer models like the iPhone 15, MacBook Pro M2, and Apple Watch Ultra, are highly coveted. If you wait until Black Friday itself, there’s a chance that stock may run low, or the items you want might be sold out. By purchasing early, you get to skip the chaos of long lines, website crashes , and missing out on the latest technology. Not only are you securing your purchase ahead of the rush, but you’re also saving money on already discounted items. This makes it easier to cross items off your shopping list with no hassle. Top Apple Products on Sale at Amazon Right Now Here’s a quick rundown of the most popular Apple products currently on sale: How Big Are the Discounts? Amazon has always been a competitive player when it comes to offering discounts , but what makes their pre-Black Friday Apple deals stand out is the consistency and variety of offers. As mentioned, you can expect discounts of anywhere from 10% to 20%, depending on the product. In some cases, the savings could be higher, especially on older models like the iPhone 14 series or the Apple Watch SE. What Should You Keep in Mind When Shopping? While it’s tempting to grab these deals quickly, there are a few things to keep in mind: When Should You Shop? The best time to grab these pre-Black Friday Apple deals is now. Although Black Friday officially starts the day after Thanksgiving, shopping early gives you a better chance of securing the product you want before it goes out of stock. Keep an eye on Amazon’s lightning deals as well, which may offer additional discounts for a limited time. With Amazon’s incredible pre-Black Friday Apple deals, now is the perfect time to get your hands on some of the most sought-after Apple products. From the iPhone 15 to MacBooks, Apple Watches, and AirPods, there’s no shortage of options available. Take advantage of the early discounts before the rush, and ensure you’re not left empty-handed when Black Friday officially arrives. Remember, stock is limited, and these deals won’t last forever.

Joe Biden begins final White House holiday season with turkey pardons for 'Peach' and 'Blossom' WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden has kicked off his final holiday season at the White House, issuing the traditional reprieve to two turkeys who will bypass the Thanksgiving table to live out their days in Minnesota. The president welcomed 2,500 guests under sunny skies as he cracked jokes about the fates of “Peach” and “Blossom.” He also sounded wistful tones about the last weeks of his presidency. Separately, first lady Jill Biden received the delivery of the official White House Christmas tree. And the Bidens are traveling to New York later Monday for an early holiday celebration with members of the Coast Guard. Bah, humbug! Vandal smashes Ebenezer Scrooge's tombstone used in 'A Christmas Carol' movie LONDON (AP) — If life imitates art, a vandal in the English countryside may be haunted by The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Police in the town of Shrewsbury are investigating how a tombstone at the fictional grave of Ebenezer Scrooge was destroyed. The movie prop used in the 1984 adaption of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol” had become a tourist attraction. The film starred George C. Scott as the cold-hearted curmudgeon who is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve who show him what will become of his life if he doesn’t become a better person. West Mercia Police say the stone was vandalized in the past week. Megachurch founder T.D. Jakes suffers health incident during sermon at Dallas church DALLAS (AP) — The founder of Dallas-based megachurch The Potter's House, Bishop T.D. Jakes, was hospitalized after suffering what the church called a “slight health incident.” Jakes was speaking to churchgoers after he sat down and began trembling as several people gathered around him Sunday at the church. Jakes' daughter Sarah Jakes Roberts and her husband Touré Roberts said in a statement on social media late Sunday that Jakes was improving. The 67-year-old Jakes founded the non-denominational The Potter's House in 1996 and his website says it now has more than 30,000 members with campuses in Fort Worth and Frisco, Texas; and in Denver. Warren Buffett gives away another $1.1B and plans for distributing his $147B fortune after his death OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Investor Warren Buffett renewed his Thanksgiving tradition of giving by announcing plans Monday to hand more than $1.1 billion of Berkshire Hathaway stock to four of his family's foundations, and he offered new details about who will be handing out the rest of his fortune after his death. Buffett has said previously that his three kids will distribute his remaining $147.4 billion fortune in the 10 years after his death, but now he has also designated successors for them because it’s possible that Buffett’s children could die before giving it all away. Buffett said he has no regrets about his decision to start giving away his fortune in 2006. At the crossroads of news and opinion, 'Morning Joe' hosts grapple with aftermath of Trump meeting The reaction of those who defended “Morning Joe” hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski for meeting with President-elect Trump sounds almost quaint in the days of opinionated journalism. Doesn't it makes sense, they said, for hosts of a political news show to meet with such an important figure? But given how “Morning Joe” has attacked Trump, its viewers felt insulted. Many reacted quickly by staying away. It all reflects the broader trend of opinion crowding out traditional journalist in today's marketplace, and the expectations that creates among consumers. By mid-week, the show's audience was less than two-thirds what it has typically been this year. Pop star Ed Sheeran apologizes to Man United boss Ruben Amorim for crashing interview MANCHESTER, England (AP) — British pop star Ed Sheeran has apologized to Ruben Amorim after inadvertently interrupting the new Manchester United head coach during a live television interview. Amorim was talking on Sky Sports after United’s 1-1 draw with Ipswich on Sunday when Sheeran walked up to embrace analyst Jamie Redknapp. The interview was paused before Redknapp told the pop star to “come and say hello in a minute.” Sheeran is a lifelong Ipswich fan and holds a minority stake in the club. He was pictured celebrating after Omari Hutchinson’s equalizing goal in the game at Portman Road. A desert oasis outside of Dubai draws a new caravan: A family of rodents from Argentina AL QUDRA LAKES, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A desert oasis hidden away in the dunes in the far reaches of skyscraper-studded Dubai has drawn a surprising new set of weary world travelers: a pack of Argentinian rodents. A number of Patagonian mara, a rabbit-like mammal with long legs, big ears and a body like a hoofed animal, now roam the grounds of Al Qudra Lakes, typically home to gazelle and other desert creatures of the United Arab Emirates. How they got there remains a mystery in the UAE, a country where exotic animals have ended up in the private homes and farms of the wealthy. But the pack appears to be thriving there and likely have survived several years already in a network of warrens among the dunes. Pilot dies in plane crash in remote woods of New York, puppy found alive WINDHAM, N.Y. (AP) — Authorities say a pilot and at least one dog he was transporting died when a small plane crashed in the snowy woods of the Catskill Mountains, though a puppy on the flight was found alive with two broken legs. The Greene County sheriff’s office says Seuk Kim of Springfield, Virginia, was flying from Maryland to Albany, New York, when the plane crashed at about 6:10 p.m. Sunday in a remote area. Officials believe the pilot died from the impact. The surviving dog was hospitalized, while a third dog was not located. The flight was connected with a not-for-profit group that transports rescue animals. New Zealanders save more than 30 stranded whales by lifting them on sheets WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — More than 30 pilot whales that stranded themselves on a beach in New Zealand have been safely returned to the ocean after conservation workers and residents helped to refloat them by lifting them on sheets. New Zealand’s conservation agency said four whales died. New Zealand is a whale stranding hotspot and pilot whales are especially prolific stranders. The agency praised as “incredible” the efforts made by hundreds of people to help save the foundering pod. A Māori cultural ceremony for the three adult whales and one calf that died in the stranding took place Monday. Rainbow-clad revelers hit Copacabana beach for Rio de Janeiro’s pride parade RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Thousands of revelers have gathered alongside Copacabana beach for Rio de Janeiro’s annual gay pride parade, many scantily dressed and covered in glitter. Rainbow-colored flags, towels and fans abounded among the crowd mostly made up of young revelers, who danced and sang along to music blaring from speakers. While the atmosphere was festive, some spoke of the threat of violence LGBTQ+ people face in Brazil. At least 230 LGBTQ+ Brazilians were victims of violent deaths in 2023, according to the umbrella watchdog group Observatory of LGBTQ+ deaths and violence in Brazil.
