Amazon Hits Best Buy With Video Game Discounts - http://clapway.com/2016/01/13/amazon-hits-best-buy-with-video-game-discounts-123/

Gamers with Amazon Prime are in for a treat, as the e-commerce platform has rolled out a new plan that offers video games with a 20% discount. Take that, Best Buy.

Prime Members Get One More Perk

Amazon Prime members already get access to Prime Video, Prime Music and free two-day shipping, and now they get 20% off games that usually cost $60. That’s a whole $12 off with free two-day shipping. The discount will be available only for physical copies and Collector’s Edition items, and the discount is available on pre-orders and up to two weeks after the title has been launched. The discount does not include console bundles.

Best Buy Has The Same Discount, But Not the Same Benefits

Best Buy offers a 20% discount on new releases, but it doesn’t have any of the other perks that Prime offers. Users might be more drawn to the Prime promotions because it can lure people in through video game promotions and the rest of the benefits. It may even land them with Prime membership. This will be especially beneficial for students, who get half off of Amazon Prime subscription.

Amazon is Your One-Stop Spot or Will Be Eventually

Currently, Prime membership only costs $99. With all of the free services that come with membership and this new one, Amazon may see a new flood of members, especially from gamers who own and game on consoles. The e-commerce giant is taking big and sure steps into becoming a part of daily life, and most of their services have become second nature to many people. The benefits of Prime Video and Prime Music go without saying. But other services like Amazon Handmade and Amazon Fresh are quickly making headlines and getting acclaim.

Drone Delivery Services Are A Definite Possibility

The company is even investigating the possibility of getting drones to deliver packages. This would mean that actual package delivery can take even 20 minutes. Can Amazon overpower other retailers, especially game retailers? That is yet to be seen. For now, it’s evident that Amazon is dipping its feet into many industries, and is excelling in most of them.

Best Buy with Huge PS4 and Xbox One Deals - http://clapway.com/2015/12/09/best-buy-with-huge-ps4-and-xbox-one-deals/

Isn’t the holiday season great? Best Buy has announced that they are offering amazing PS4 and Xbox One deals. According to Best Buy, they are offering a buy two get one free deal for Xbox One and PS4 new games. This means that a $59.99 game can be bought for $0!

BEST BUY’S PS4 AND XBOX ONE DEALS

There are a few rules that Best Buy has stated for this buy two get one free game deal. They state that the third game, the one that is free, must be either equal or cheaper than the other two. This prevents somebody from buying 2 games for $10 each and then getting the $59.99 game for free. It would instead be purchasing the $59.99 game and getting one of the $10 game free. This is done so someone can not cheat the system. So, if done right a $59.99 game could be free. Games such as Fallout 4, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, Halo 5, among others can be purchased.

XBOX ONE AND PS4 GAME DEALS PROVE BLACK FRIDAY IS OVERRATED

A lot of people make a huge deal about Black Friday, but the reality of the situation is there have already been several great deals past it. People might as well wait because now they do not have to deal with the all out craziness of Black Friday. However, they can still find the deals that are found on that day. Let’s face it, Black Friday is simply overrated and takes way too much patience.

GET OVER TO BEST BUY FOR THESE PS4 AND XBOX ONE DEALS

This is something that needs to be taken advantage of. If you decided to buy three games that were $59.99, it would only cost around $120. However, if you wait you will spend $60 more. Best Buy has announced that this deal will run through December 12th. This means that there is not a lot of time left and it needs to be jumped all over very soon!

Apple Pencil Comes to Best Buy - http://clapway.com/2015/11/22/apple-pencil-is-too-expensive-at-best-buy123/

With Black Friday just around the corner, Apple is ensuring customers can get their hands on their Apple Pencil. Facing supply constraints at its own stores, Apple has again partnered with the big box titan. Previously this year, Best Buy was the very first chain store to supply the Apple Watch.

Apple and Best Buy Partner Up

The Apple Pencil will be sold for $99.99 at the Best Buy online stores. When used with the iPad Pro, the Apple Pencil allows creatives also better precision. The Pencil was made to expand on the adaptability of Multi-Touch, and also allows users make any type of variety of effects, to a single pixel.

Apple Pencil: Easy to Break, but Kind of Worth It

Apple has worked to ensure latency, the small delay between when you begin attracting and also the time it appears on the display has been minimized to a virtually invisible level. When iPad Pro senses the Pencil, the subsystem checks its signal at 240 times per second, offering it twice the information points it generally accumulates with the customer’s finger.

The small device proved, like a lot of Apple’s products, to be a challenging one to breakdown. Apart from the minimal supply for the Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard, Apple fans could also find themselves on a lengthy search for the iPad Pro itself. The 128GB version seems in high demand both online and in stores, a scarcity just likely to raise in the coming weeks.

Best Buy Sales May Disappoint Customers - http://clapway.com/2015/11/22/best-buy-sales-may-disappoint-customers123/

It’s a disappointing time for the business like Best Buy. Best Buy, the world’s largest electronic devices chain, claimed on Thursday that the US market for technology items has worsened in third quarter earnings, and with the holidays fast approaching, the declines will become even worse. Their main problem: tablet computers, a category that’s peaked and is currently losing to bigger phones. Wal-Mart Stores and Target also claimed this week that electronics were a weak point.

Tablets Are Killing Best Buy

Electronics had long been an engine of the holiday-shopping season, with new products driving people to malls and online shops. The dearth of brand-new products makes the fostering of Ultra HD TVs more crucial. Prices for collections with the modern technology, commonly known as 4K, have actually dropped, making them much more enticing, according to Best Buy.

The store has committed even more space to them, with locations committed to the Sony and Samsung. Best Buy pointed out TV’s as one of the groups that grew throughout the third quarter it reported on Thursday. The 227-store chain could use a lift after uploading 9 straight quarters of same-store sales declines.

Apparel Stores Are Also Suffering

The electronic devices slump comes as apparel stores have actually largely posted weak third-quarter outcomes and don’t expect an increase as the holiday season sets in. The spate of downbeat reports has actually crushed shares of retailers as well as prompted worries that Christmas sales could be frustrating in spite of the expanding US economy.

Housing Market is Safe

Chains tied to the housing market have been the lone bright spot since rising home values have urged Americans to invest in their commercial properties. Home Depot Inc. and Lowe’s Cos. both topped sales and revenue price quotes in the 3rd quarter and predicted good growth for the holiday season.

Toyota Scion iA is The Best? - http://clapway.com/2015/11/12/toyota-scion-ia-wins-best-buy-award123/

Toyota’s Sion iA sedan has been heavily awarded, and it just took home a Consumer Guide Best Buy Award for the subcompact class. This award is given to the vehicles with the best balance of features and values in their class.

Toyota Scion iA Gets Praised by Editors

Consumer Guide Automotive editors make decisions by examining room, comfort, passenger and cargo wise, power as well as performance. They also take into account ride and handling, and fit and finish. The Toyota Scion iA was recognized for all of these, and with the added bonus of great dollar value.

According to Scion Vice President Andrew Gilleland, the Toyota Scion iA has plenty of premium amenities and safety features that help it to stand out. The Toyota Scion iA is especially outstanding for its low-speed pre-collision system, and being a vehicle under $20,000, it really does constitute one of the best buys of its class.

Toyota Scion iA Specs

The Toyota Scion iA starts at $15,700. With a standard body comes with 16-inch aluminum wheels, turn-signal repeaters in the side mirrors and forward-collision warning system, the Toyota Scion iA is well equipped at a low price. The interior has cruise control, air conditioning and keyless entry. The Toyota Scion iA has a push-button ignition, a backup camera and, surprisingly, Mazda’s 7″ infotainment system screen and knob interface. The Toyota Scion iA also comes with a slew of dealer-installed accessories.

The Toyota Scion iA is no different the Mazda in another respect: the tuning of the car’s front strut and rear-torsion-beam suspension and electronic power steering will be the same. This makes the Toyota Scion iA a smooth, comfortable drive.

The Toyota Scion iA Takes One More Award

The Toyota Scion iA has taken the Top Safety Pick+ award this year as well, earning itself an ‘advanced rating’. In order to earn the award, the Toyota Scion iAwas able to avoid a collision in a 12mph track test, and it was recognized for having solid technology and guaranteed safety while being inexpensive. It’s the best buy and the safest as well.

In fact, the Toyota Scion iA is the least expensive vehicle to come with standard front-crash prevention. This can only mean that more awards await this car, and brings hope to future models of the Toyota Scion iA to also become the best buy of their years.

Best Buy Releases Black Friday Deals: Focus on Laptops - http://clapway.com/2015/11/11/best-buy-releases-black-friday-deals-focus-laptops/

With a company as well-known as Best Buy it was just a matter of time before they would release their Black Friday ad. It appears that Best Buy is really focusing on laptops this Black Friday as many of their deals focus on them.

BEST AND BIGGEST BEST BUY DEALS ON LAPTOPS

For anyone looking for a new laptop this holiday season, Best Buy might just be the way to go. They are discounting many different kinds and brands of laptops. The following are some of the biggest deals that are present according to Best Buy’s ad: an Acer 11.6 inch Chromebook with an Intel Celeron processor, 2GB of RAM, and 16GB of hard drive space for only $99, with the original price being $169.99. An Asus 15.6 inch Laptop with an Intel Celeron processor, 4GB of RAM, and 500GB of hard drive space for only $139.99, with the original price being $249.99. A HP Pavilion 17.3 inch Laptop with an Intel Core i5 processor, 4GB of RAM, and 1TB of hard drive space for only $399.99, with the original price being $499.99. They also have many variations of touch screen laptops from HP and Lenovo with around $200-250 saved on each of them. Best Buy might be the place to go on Black Friday if you want a new laptop. There are many other deals that Best Buy is offering, this is just highlighting a few of them.

Picking and choosing where to go on Black Friday might be the most difficult part of it, but it really depends on what you are looking for. With this new ad, Best Buy is not offering much more than laptops or tablets so if one is looking for devices other than these than Best Buy might not be the place to go on Black Friday. However, as mentioned previously, if one is looking for a new laptop or tablet then Best Buy is where the money is at. No matter what though, this is just one of the many Black Friday ads that have already been released so deals can be found everywhere.

 

Best Buy Releases Black Friday Deals: Focus on Laptops

Are you grabbing your #AppleWatch from a #BestBuy near you? - http://clapway.com/2015/07/27/apple-watch-hits-best-buys-shelves-why-you-need-it-and-how-to-get-it-345/

The Apple Watch will soon be available to purchase at your local Best Buy, just in time for the holiday season. Best Buy recently announced plans to start stocking their shelves with the wearable device, making them the first retail chain to start selling them.

WHY YOU NEED IT

Apple’s new wearable device is arguably the most innovative and talked about gadget on the market today. However, very little is still known about the watch itself. For example, did you know that the dial that you would use to adjust the time on a regular watch will be implemented on the Apple Watch, which Apple dubbed the Digital Crown? Only instead of fixing the time—kept perfectly accurate automatically using global positioning, according to Apple—the dial can be used to easily zoom in and out of pictures, graphics, and maps, instead of having to do that annoying pinching thing on such a small screen.

Another impressive function is the watch’s ability to show you exactly what you want to see in a single glance. Whether you want to check the time, the weather, the front page headlines, or the next turn you’ll have to take, the Apple Watch is extremely customizable. And speaking of customizing, Apple has given customers a whopping 16 different models of Apple Watch to choose from, all available in a variety of colors, materials, and come with a variety of bands. Not only this, but the Apple Watch comes standard with a wide variety of watch faces to best suit the customer’s preferences.

HOW TO GET IT

Best Buy recently announced plans to sell the Apple Watch in stores across the US starting on August 7th. However, only a select 100 Best Buys will actually physically carry the device—at least initially. Eventually, more than 300 Best Buy stores are planned to carry the device, just in time for the holidays, according to senior category officer at Jason Bonfig.

With more than 1,400 Best Buy establishments nationwide, the chances of picking up an Apple Watch from the location closest to you may be slim. However, customers will also be able to buy the watch from Best Buy’s online store.

A NEW (OLD) MARKETING STRATEGY

With reports showing the Apple Watch failing to meet sales expectations, Apple has been looking to alternative marketing strategies, as their usual TV commercials and online advertisements just don’t seem to be doing the trick. One of these strategies is a push to spread knowledge of the device through retail, giving customers a comprehensive hands-on experience with the watch.

Although demand for the watch was initially low in the first quarter of sales, attention to the Apple Watch skyrocketed when Apple put it on its shelves across the country in April, bringing in a whopping $1 billion in sales just last quarter. Apple CEO Tim Cook says he’s more than satisfied with the watches’ sales, and is ready to gear up for the holiday season, understandably “excited about how the product is positioned for the long term.”

Pricing for the Apple Watch starts at $350 for the “Sport” version, complete with a simple aluminum case and white plastic band, and can go as high as $17,000 for the most expensive “Edition” version, which boasts a 38mm 18-karat yellow gold case with a red buckle.
