Jun 30, 2016 11:14 AM EDT

With the Fourth of July coming on Monday, many are thinking that there are going to be a lot of deals going on with all kinds of products, but this doesn't necessarily mean that Apple will have any price cuts for their iPhones, iPads, or their laptops like the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro.  Apple isn't known for having deals for their products at this time, but you can find some deals at certain stores below. 

According to DealNews, it is not recommended that you purchase any Apple products around Independence Day.  The Apple store doesn't have sales to mark this holiday, but when it comes to back-to-school, they will give consumers a deal.  Considering that Apple will release new iPhones, iPads, and often Macs and MacBooks in September, you will just be buying something that you will have to upgrade.  That being said, there are still some markdown that you might be able to obtain during the Fourth of July season. 

iPhone

Just so you have something to compare it to, here are the starting prices for the iPhone on the Apple site.  The iPhone SE is $399, iPhone 6 is $549, iPhone 6 Plus is $649, iPhone 6S is $649, and the iPhone 6S Plus is $749. 

At Best Buy, the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6S starts at $99.99 with 2-year activation from Verizon and Sprint.  The iPad mini 2 Wi-Fi Cellular 16 GB is free with purchase and activation of any iPhone on AT&T Next and 2-year activation of the iPad mini 2. 

As for Wal-Mart, you can get an iPhone 6S 16GB Refurbished from AT&T for $449.00. There is also a possibility of the Straight Talk Apple iPhone 5S 16 GB 4G LTE Prepaid for $149.00. 

So, these are interesting prices, but you could wait for the iPhone 7, due out soon.
