Here are Apple's Black Friday deals for US and Canada consumers

[RaduTyrsina]

Just like it was previously thought, Apple’s Black Friday deals for customers from the United States and Canada don’t include discounted products, but gift cards. Apple's Black Friday deals for U.S. and Canada include a $75 Apple Store gift card to iPad Air buyers and a $50 gift card for non-Retina iPad mini or iPad 2 customers that you have to spend in the same Apple Store.

If you are looking to buy a Mac, then you can expect $150 gift cards from Apple for MacBook Pros, MacBook Airs and iMacs. iPod touch purchases will come with a $50 gift card purchase, while the iPod nano and Apple TV will get you only a $25 card.

For buying the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule you will get a $50 gift card and various accessories that can be found in Apple’s Store could also have gift cards. What’s bad is that iPhones do not qualify for the gift card program. We've put all the deals below for easier access.

For those gift cards, you needed to place your order online after 12 midnight PST or in the physical store today. iirc

Hmmmmm... Last year I got 60.00 off of the latest retina display iPad right away without having to purchasing an additional item. AND, I forgot about Black Friday and bought it the week before and they still gave me the credit afterwards when I called customer service. I guess I made them think twice about doing it this year lol.

I thought that it bites that the people who bought the retina version got squat in terms of gift cards.
