Alongside the ongoing Amazon all-time low on AirPods Pro 3, today’s 9to5Toys Lunch Break is starting with a seriously notable deal on M4 MacBook Air. Now landing back down at the Black Friday price at $250 off, you can also land the 13-inch model with a FREE $25 gift card for the best price of the year. Those offers also join exclusive sitewide savings for 9to5 readers at Twelve South and on all of the sweet leather gear from Bluebonnet. Scope it all out below.
Best deal of the year hits M4 MacBook Air – 13-inch now $250 off with FREE $25 gift card
Amazon is still delving what is arguably the best Apple deals of the holiday season – AirPods Pro 3 at the $199 all-time low – and it might not last much longer. But Best Buy just debuted its 3-day Week 2 Holiday Doorbuster sale and it delivering a seriously great deal on the 13-inch M4 MacBook Air. It is now matching the Black Friday price while also tacking on a $25 Best Buy gift card with purchase.
While Amazon might price match this offer here at some point, it’s hard to say considering the Best Buy gift card is the only real difference – Amazon is also now offering 13-inch M4 MacBook Air models back down at the Black Friday price with $250 in savings otherwise.
Best Buy, however, is now offering the 13-inch M4 MacBook Air with 16GB of RAM and the 256GB SSD down at $749 shipped with a FREE $25 Best Buy gift card attached. Regularly $999, this straight up $250 cash discount here is on par with the best deals we spotted online for Black Friday this year, but the bonus gift card sweetens the proposition further, effectively delivering $275 in savings.
The $250 price drop and $25 gift cardoffer is also live on the 16GB/512GB 13-inch M4 MacBook Air as well.
And because this offer comes by way of the new 3-day Holiday Doorbuster sale, Plus and Total members get a $5 bonus reward for every $50 spent up to a max of $25. That means that Best Buy’s paid members are also going to land a $25 bonus on top of the $250 price drop and gift card here.
After Black Friday and Cyber Monday came and went with the M4 Air maxing out at $250 off, one could safely assume that would be as good as it was going to get through 2025. But you might have also thought that on Apple Watch Series 11 and AirPods Pro 3 and both of those are now down even lower in the lead up to Christmas.
Outside of some YMMV deals or in-store offers at local shops that have popped up here and there, you’re looking at the best deal we have tracked on Apple’s popular M4 MacBook Air machine, and on the most affordable/accessible configuration of them.
