The big day is nearly here: Black Friday is the biggest shopping event of the year and if you are looking for a deal on a new MacBook Air or MacBook Pro you have come to the right place.

Black Friday deals are already coming in hot with some excellent discounts on MacBooks. Key among them is a sale on the M3 MacBook Air, the machine we consider to be the best laptop for most people and the best laptop for college students.

However, shopping from retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart can often net you more savings — and all of those retailers have started to roll out early Black Friday-worthy deals on Apple products, with their official early Black Friday sales starting weeks ahead of the actual day.
