Mac Deals From Apple
Apple doesn’t discount its Macs, but you might consider visiting Apple’s Refurbished and Clearance store. You can save some money off the regular price, and refurbished Macs are just as good as new with no cosmetic blemishes, a full one-year warranty, and free delivery and returns.
If you are a veteran or a current member of the military, Apple has a special purchase program where you can get ten percent off all Apple products. Verification of your veteran or active military status is required using ID.me.
The inventory of the Refurbished and Clearance Store ebbs and flows, so check back at a later date if you can’t find what you want.

Mac buying advice
Many retailers carry Mac configurations that are different from the standard configurations. They may have more RAM, a higher-capacity SSD, ethernet, or some other optional feature. This will affect the price. When shopping, maybe sure you read the specifications carefully so you get the Mac with the specs that you want.
Some retailers may sell older Intel-based Macs with deep discounts. Know that these Macs are older models and while they may be sold as “new,” they’re only new in the sense that they have never been used.
If you have an Apple Card, use it with Apple Pay. You get 3 percent cash back on purchases made at the Apple Store, and 2 percent back on all other purchases made using Apple Pay. If you use the physical Apple Card, you’ll only get 1 percent back.
