Target to offer $100 gift card with Apple Watch this Black Friday
Be sure to make Target your target this coming Black Friday, especially if you’re planning on getting an Apple Watch.
As indicated on a flyer advertising Target’s upcoming Black Friday deals (via WatchAware), every purchase of the Apple Watch during the shopping holiday will entitle you to a free $100 gift card. The deal will be available with any model of the smart watch, starting with the cheapest at $349, which will effectively be available with about a third of its price slashed off.
Perhaps this deal will contribute considerably to the Apple Watch’s sales, whose actual figures are still being kept under wraps by Apple. Suffice it to say that “things are going well” with the sales performance of the device, as noted by Apple CEO Tim Cook in a recently published interview.
Aside from the Apple Watch, Target will also be offering Black Friday deals on certain iPad models. The retail chain will be giving out a $150 gift card with every purchase of the year-old iPad Air 2 (starting at $499), a $100 gift card with the two-month-old iPad mini 4 (starting at $399), and a $80 gift card with the two-year-old iPad mini 2 (starting at $269).
Note that Target’s Black Friday shopping frenzy will start early, as stores are scheduled to open at 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26.
Keep these offers in mind if you’re shopping for an Apple Watch or an iPad for yourself or for someone else this holiday season. And keep it here on AppAdvice as we let you know of more Black Friday deals from other retailers as information about them becomes available.
