Are you looking for a MacBook Pro?
Are you looking for the best deal out there?
Then read on. We all want the best deal for the things we would like to buy. Sometimes, we even buy things that we don't really need just because they were on special for a limited time, and we come up with "logical" explanations to justify our purchase. Most of our buying decisions are driven by our emotions and feelings, followed by list of justifications that quiet our guilt.
It is especially true when we shop in retail (physical) stores, as opposed to online, where we are exposed to more information on products, ratings and reviews. On top of above mentioned benefits, online shopping can offer a much bigger variety of products, and cheaper prices on those products. When shopping online, make sure you compare prices, peripherals, shipping costs and keep a log of information found. Apple's warranty is usually much more comprehensive than the ones offered by retailers (no matter what the sales people say in retail stores to get their sale) so if you are thinking about getting warranty on your MacBook, consider Apple's. Also, staying away from retail stores will help avoid sleazy sales pitches, and often misleading information.
Another way to find a better deal, or in this case, save on your MacBook Pro purchase is to really think about what is important for you in a MacBook. Make a list of things that you actually need in detail. For example, if you need a big hard drive, ask yourself, "how much do I really need, and do I really need that much? You often find that when you ask those kinds of questions, you realise that you don't really need the latest issue laptop; that the previous issue is good enough. If that is the case, you can actually save quite a bit by buying previous edition.
MacBook Pro Sale
As most of you are aware, Apple is known for introducing small changes to its product lines from one year to another. For example, recent research has shown that there were only 3 differences between 2010 issue of a MacBook Pro and the one in 2011 - slightly bigger hard drive, a notch better processor frequency and a price difference of at least around $150-$200. Question here to ask is "is it worth paying extra $150-$200 for these small changes?" and "do I really need this extra180G of data; are you really going to use more than 320Gigs of data?"
Moreover, you will find that it is cheaper to upgrade than buy the newest one. For example, in the same example above, you can that extra 180Gigs of data, if you really need it, for far less than 150-200 dollars.
Third way to save some bucks when buying a MacBook Pro is to get a student discount, which can be upto 15% off. Of course, you can do that if you are a student, teacher, university staff or faculty member. Just go to the official Apple website and you would be able buy products with a discount.
There are many websites that claim to give you Coupons, special deals and limited time offers, but when you actually go into them, they will take you to the Apple Store website, so you might as well go straight there.
