Graduation deals to grab — limited time only

Do you know the No. 1 gift graduating students will ask for this year? A computer.

No surprise — it’s a powerful tool for success in their coming years. Whether they are becoming entrepreneurs (like the 61 percent of students that expect to start their business), entering the workforce (like the estimated 2.8 million of U.S. students who will this year), or starting college (like 66 percent of high school students), a laptop is the No. 1 wish list item.

All these big, life adventures mean even more savings out-of-pocket. We don’t want anyone to overspend on the technology that can, and will, empower them to do more in their next chapter.

Instead, now is the time to grab these great deals for your grad to play hard and work harder.
