Best Buy Pre-Black Friday Deals: Free $100 Gift Card With iPad Mini Purchase

Here's an awesome deal for anyone hunting the iPad Mini this holiday season -- Best Buy is offering a free $100 gift card when you purchase the first generation iPad Mini 16GB Wi-Fi!

This deal is supposed to run both online and in stores on Wednesday, November 27 and online only on Thanksgiving Day.

Currently, however, the website is sold out of all three versions -- so you might be better off making a trip to your local store this morning!  I am hoping that Best Buy restocks their website in time for Thanksgiving Day.

Here's how the math shakes out:

• iPad Mini 16GB Wi-Fi -- priced at $299, with your free $100 Best Buy gift card back with purchase (to be used on a future transaction.)
• That's like spending a final price of $199 on your purchase -- which meets the Walmart Black Friday price for the iPad Mini.
