If it seems as though every holiday is an occasion for a retailer to promote special pricing, that’s probably because it’s true. One case in point is Presidents’ Day, which falls on Monday, February 15, this year and is the occasion for a four-day sale from Best Buy Co. Inc. (NYSE: BBY). The sale started Friday.
The consumer electronics retailer is focusing on products from Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) this time around, and the deals could be even better than some that were offered around the Christmas holiday season.
Best Buy is selling a variety of iPhones with 64 gigabytes (GB) of memory for $99.99 with a two-year contract from Sprint or Verizon. The iPhone 6s and 6s Plus are both included, and a 128 GB model is selling for $199.99. In either case, that’s a savings of $200 off the regular price of these phones. All come with free shipping and other special offers.
An iPad mini 3 (MGP42LL/A) with Wi-Fi only is on sale for $299.99, a savings of $300 from the regular price, but the device is sold out online, according to the Best Buy website. A 128 GB iPad mini 3 with Wi-Fi and cellular capability (MH3M2LLA) is on sale for $429.99, a savings of $300 from the list price.

Finally, an Apple MacBook Pro with a 13.3-inch Retina display, 8 GB of memory and 512 GB of flash storage (MF841LL/A) is selling for $1,649.99, a savings of $150 from the regular price.
And if you’re still in the market for a TV, Best Buy has a Samsung 40-inch, 2160p LED Smart 4K Ultra HD TV (UN40JU6400FXZA) for sale at a price of $449.99, a savings of $300 from the regular price. This one comes with free expedited shipping, and an open-box version is on sale for $381.99.
