Apple’s Back to School sale goes live in Australia & New Zealand w/ App Store gift cards

Like it does every year, Apple has just kicked off its Back to School sale in both Australia and New Zealand ahead of the new school year. On top of the usual education pricing on Macs, iOS devices and more, Apple is offering a $100 App Store Gift card ($125 in NZ) on qualifying Macs and a $50 card ($65 in NZ) on qualifying iPhones and iPads. Apple notes that in order to qualify for the Back to School sale “you must be a uni student, a student accepted to a uni, a parent buying for a uni student, or a faculty or staff member from any grade level.” In the US, Canada, and many other countries, Apple’s Back to School sale usually launches in July or August ahead of the new school year starting in September.
