Best overall back-to-school sale

Why we like it

Each year, Apple rolls out education pricing on its top products to treat students to some much-needed, pre-semester TLC. This year is no different. Apple's BTS sale ("back-to-school," not the South Korean boyband) includes MacBook Airs from $899 (plus a free $150 gift card upon purchase), MacBook Pros from $1,199 (also with a $150 gift card), iPad Airs from $549 (plus a $100 gift card), and beyond. Apple's sale operates on the honor system, meaning you don't have to verify your student status with an ID to take advantage of the deals. Honesty is the best policy, but we're all scholars at heart, aren't we? If you want to score students-only savings on Apple Music ($5.99/month with three months of free listening and free Apple TV+ access), you will have to verify your identity via Unidays, though.
