Apple has brought its one-day only Black Friday sale to the UK, slashing prices across the board.
The Black Friday sale is an annual tradition in the US in which retailers cut the prices of all their products for one day only.
However, with the doom and gloom surrounding the economy recently, it appears Apple has decided to spread some Christmas cheer by bringing the sale to the UK.
Customers visiting the company's website today can save £60.99 on a 13in MacBook, or £31 on a 20in iMac. Smaller discounts can be found on accessories and the iPod range, with £11 knocked off the touch, and a fiver coming off the nano.
There are a few products sitting out the sale, though. The iPhone, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air are holding steady at their original prices.
The sale ends at midnight, but Apple has promised to pass along the Government's VAT cut to customers on Monday, so expect further discounts then.
