Here’s Your Complete Apple Store Black Friday Shopping Guide

Taylor Bell
Updated

Although it’s no secret that Black Friday is a huge moneymaker for retailers, it’s especially true for Apple. The tech giant made more than $5.03 billion from online sales last year, with $2 billion of those sales generated from mobile sales alone, according to TechCrunch. The company continues to flourish — Apple hit $1 trillion in valuation earlier this year — and Black Friday 2018 sales will likely add to its success.

Although Apple has not officially released its Black Friday deals, you can still score huge savings on Apple products before the big day. Make your shopping plans now with information on Apple’s Black Friday store hours and details on where to get the best deals on notoriously expensive Apple products.

Apple Black Friday Hours

According to the Apple site, stores will maintain normal hours of operation for both Thanksgiving and Black Friday. Hours vary by location, but in general:

Apple Return Policy

Apple’s regular return policy states that you have 14 days to return an Apple product from the day you bought it. But that applies only if you bought the item from Apple online or at an Apple store. If you purchased an Apple product through another retailer, returns should be done according to that retailer’s policy.

A few exceptions apply, however; you can’t return:

  • Opened software

  • Electronic software downloads

  • Software upgrades

  • Apple Store gift cards

  • Apple developer products

  • Apple print products

For gift returns, you must provide a product serial number or order number.
