Apple’s Back‑to‑School Bash: Grab a Mac & a Sweet Gift Card
In the latest marketing uproar, Apple has rolled out its Back‑to‑School (BTS) discounts on Instagram, sniping the spotlight on university students. The carousel of ads showcases a snazzy MacBook bundle that promises education savings, plus an extra treat: a gift card worth up to $200.
What’s the Deal?
- Students can snag the MacBook at a $150 discount—this echoes the 2023 promotion that brought joy to savvy shoppers.
- On top of the discount, you’ll receive a gift card that can help pay for software, accessories, or even those late‑night pizza cravings.
- These offers are currently announced on Instagram, but a quick scroll through a Canadian user’s screenshot suggests the US market will likely mirror the same offers.
Why Should You Care?
Whether you’re a freshman needing a new laptop to keep up with the in‑class or a senior planning to sleuth a bit late in the night, these offers cut the price—and the hassle—of buying a MacBook. Also, the increased gift card value offers #Kaputflexibility.
In a Nutshell
Apple’s Back‑to‑School promotions get you a MacBook at a lean price plus a $200 gift card. Remember to match the ad to your specific region because the discount numbers may vary.
