Each configuration, color, and storage option is now marked down by a solid $100, with prices starting from $399 shipped. Apple’s AirPods 2 are currently available at $180 new, while certified refurbished units from Best Buy are dropping to just $150 for today only. Plus, we’re seeing all-time low prices on the 2024 Alpine Loops for Apple Watch Ultra 2. Check out the offers below!
All-New Apple iPad mini 7 Lineup Now at All-Time Low Prices: $100 Off Today, Starting at $399
Since its release in October, sales on the new iPad mini A17 Pro (iPad mini 7) have been scarce. Best Buy is currently offering some attractive trade-in values for those who want to exchange their previous mini 6 (or other iPads). Both Best Buy and Amazon have launched a $100 price drop on nearly every version, with prices beginning at $399 shipped for the 128GB variant — the least expensive option. However, other models and Wi-Fi + Cell variants are also discounted today. Explore all the specifics below.
At this moment, Best Buy has implemented a straightforward $100 discount across nearly all configurations of the new A17 Pro model. We expect Amazon to join in on these price matches later today, but as of now, the $100 price drop is only visible on the premium 512GB model and select colors of the entry-level version for $399.
Best Buy Offering AirPods Pro 2 at $99 Off Today Only (Reg. $249, Geek Squad Refurb)
As part of its Deals of the Day, Best Buy has cut the price of Geek Squad Certified Refurbished AirPods Pro 2, featuring a USB-C MagSafe Case, down to just $149.99 shipped. Typically priced at $249, this represents a $99 discount off the new price and is the lowest we’ve found for a certified refurbished set from a trusted retailer.
Amazon remains competitive, listing brand new AirPods Pro 2 units at $179.99 shipped, or $69 off the standard price. This marks the best deal we’ve recorded since the early 2025 holiday season for a new set, offering a better saving when taking into account the Geek Squad option available today only.

Anker’s New Display-Equipped 140W Wall Charger and Power Bank Available with Launch Discounts
Update: The newly launched 25,000 mAh power bank is now offering a $10 introductory discount.
Anker has just released two new power banks with displays at CES 2025, which are now available for purchase from their official website. Additionally, the new 140W, 4-port Anker Wall Charger is also on sale for $79.99 shipped, which is $10 off the regular list price of $90. Use code WSCPV2LIWN23 at checkout if the discount doesn’t apply automatically.
As detailed during our launch coverage, Anker has introduced two next-gen charging solutions — a 25,000 mAh power bank and the wall charger available today. Currently, the power bank doesn’t have a launch discount yet, but we will monitor for updates.
Amazon is offering another opportunity to snag Apple’s AirTags at Black Friday pricing. The 4-pack, usually priced at $99, is now available for $69.99 shipped, matching last year’s holiday price. That breaks down to roughly $17.49 per AirTag, one of the lowest prices we’ve seen. The individual AirTag is also on sale for $22.99, down from the usual $29, just shy of the fleeting Black Friday price of $19.
While AirTag received some criticism recently over warnings regarding battery ingestion risks, it remains the top choice on the market. The sold-out limited edition Year of the Snake variants and the anticipated AirTag 2, Set to be released later this year, aren’t included in this sale, but you’re still getting a solid tracker at just $17.50 each.
