This is a strong price on the 11 inch iPad A16, especially for anyone needing one now. The $279 deal beats the usual $299 retail price and is described as far below Apple's updated $449 base price. Staples Rewards is free to join, and the discount can show after logging in, with pickup or delivery available in some cases. The main catch is that the offer appears tied to the blue model and stock has been spotty, so availability may be the limiting factor.

  • The $279 price can drop after logging into a Staples account and joining Staples Easy Rewards.

  • Rewards points can eliminate sales tax, which can reduce the out-of-pocket cost further.

  • Store pickup can work even when shipping is out of stock for the discounted blue model.

  • The deal can be stacked with external perks like a Capital One Shopping $25 offer.

  • The iPad can be price-matched at Best Buy after adding it to a Staples cart at $279.

    FairSink7293

  • The $279 discount requires joining Staples Easy Rewards via a link, and the price may not appear without that step.

  • Some orders were cancelled without email notification, with Staples citing an 'unverified' status that prevented online purchase.

  • The $279 offer appears limited to the blue iPad color, while other colors show higher pricing and may be unavailable for pickup locally.

  • The discounted price may be difficult to reproduce on desktop, mobile, or the app, even when logged in as a Rewards member.

Can't replicate the price even as a Rewards Member on desktop, mobile or app. For some reason it does say the advertised price before you login, but nothing happens. I can find an in-store offer you can clip as well, but no stores in like the entire state carries it. hah 😂

Solved this mystery. It's in-store only for this price, provided you clip the coupon (to your account).Same thing applies to the APC 900VA UPS for $90.
Mine is showing $279 even for delivery.

Checkout as a guest and it works. It is almost like they don't want us redeeming our existing points on the item or this is targeted to new members only?

To get the deal, not just login. There is a link to join easy rewards after you login. It's not easy to see in a mobile. Once you've joined, you get the discount. FYI

This is actually the first time I've seen being a member of their rewards program as actually being beneficial. Usually they will just spam you with "deals" for reams of copy/printer paper.

I think it's better to wait for Prime Day or even for Back to School a day deals to pop up. If you need an iPad right now then this is the best deal for the past few months. But if you need it for school or college in the fall wait for the back to school deals
There was a rumor that whispered through the forums about Apple raising prices. . .

If you pay with Rewards points, it eliminates the sales tax. In my area, that's a $25 savings.

Also, the last time I bought a tablet in-store, I had to pay the CA device recycle fee.
But online today, it didn't show up (unless it's just baked-in to the $279?)

Well, apple just increased the base price to $449. I think this price will be the lowest price we will see this year or even the next year. Picked one up.

How were you able to get the 279 price? I can't get it to the price as guest or using my account
