TL;DR: Through Feb. 3, you can grab a refurbished MacBook Pro (Intel Core i5, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD) for just $254.99 rather than $349. Hailing from 2012, that's 26% in savings from its current MSRP.


Valentine's Day has a reputation for being the cheesiest faux holiday of the year, but it doesn't mean that you yourself have to embody the cheesiness, especially when it comes to presents. Sure, a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolates are no-fail options, but why gift something that can be found near the cash register of any store?

This year, perhaps you may want to ditch the flowers and go the unconventional route for your partner. If your lover happens to have an affinity for tech, they may appreciate receiving a refurbished MacBook Pro, which happens to be on sale for 26% off now through February 6 — order by February 3 to guarantee delivery by Valentine's Day.

First things first, it should be noted that while this MacBook Pro is refurbished, it's been vetted and fixed to look and work like new. You get plus points to Mother Earth, too, since a purchase doesn't contribute to electronic waste.

Now, this MacBook Pro may be from 2012, but it's still the powerful, high-performance device MacBooks are known for. It packs an Intel Core i5 processor with 2.5GHz turbo boost and 4GB of RAM, meaning it can provide a smooth, fast, and quiet performance without lag. You should be able to browse as many sites as you want and jump from one app to another without worrying about your computer slowing down.

With a 2560 x 1600 Retina display, you can watch shows and movies and play games in crystal-clear quality. It also has a 7-hour battery life for longer working hours and 500GB of storage for storing all your essential files. The best part is it's ultra-slim and lightweight, so you can haul it from one place to another with ease.

Formerly retailing for $349 refurbished, you can score this refurbished 13.3" Apple MacBook Pro on sale for only $254.99 — 26% off the original. Be sure to order by February 3 to make sure it comes in time for V-Day.

Prices subject to change.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
