What happened, anyway?
It was never supposed to be all about scoring the best possible deals on merch. It used to be about something entirely different. Something about peace on earth. Something about goodwill toward men and women. And joy.
We like joy.
To that end, Connecting Point would like to offer shelter. Offer respite. Offer a small but welcome pause in the hustle and bustle that have overtaken this very special time of year.
First of all, we won’t be open Thanksgiving Day. And on Friday, we’ll be open our regular weekday hours, 8 am to 6:30 pm. Connecting Point SERVICE (the region’s only Apple Premium Service Provider, as well as an authorized service center for HP and Compaq) will be open for business as usual. The music will be soothing, the coffee hot, the cookies sweet. We’ll probably have the big game on. So we invite you to drop by and check out our fully remodeled sales floor. We think you’ll like it.
While you’re out shopping, you may want to pick up an new, unwrapped gift for the wonderful Toys for Tots program that the USMC Reserve puts on every year. We have a drop box right here in our store.
And yes, we will have some delightful special offers**:
- Up to $250 off a new Mac™ with AppleCare
- Get a $50 Connecting Point gift card* with any Beats™ headphone purchase
- Get a $25 Connecting Point gift card* with any Apple Watch® or Apple TV® purchase
- 50% off all speakers in stock
- And $100 off select iPad™ models.
You can even, with your good credit, take up to 18 months to pay, interest-free.
We’ll also have lots of other, unadvertised, surprise bargains across our entire product line. It’ll be fun.
Best of all, we’ll be holding these offers all weekend long, including Small Business Saturday. So take a breath, take a break, and visit the folks that have been your local, independent tech experts for over four decades.

Just in time for holiday decorating!
Look around your office, be it at home or work. Or your dorm room. Or that spot in the kitchen or den where the family computer lives. Or anywhere a spare USB phone charger could plug in (like, say, a Christmas tree). Now imagine this location brightened by a series of eight brightly-lit, color-cycling stars. Imagine the smiles, the uplift, the raising of spirits of you and everyone around you. A priceless reaction – but one you can own for under a buck.
This nine-foot light chain is affixed with eight LED-driven clear stars. No batteries or AC outlets are necessary, since it draws all the power it needs from any USB port. And the colors – the colors! Each star cycles through five different colors (red, green, purple, blue, and yellow). That’s a lot of environmental enhancement for 99 pennies!
- Nine-foot cord (will reach up to nine feet)
- Eight individual star-shaped lights
- Cycles through five vivid colors: red, green, purple, blue, and yellow
- Bright colors but virtually no heat, thanks to cool, long-lasting LED technology
- Great gift item for friends, family, co-workers (and if you’re already doing some holiday shopping, an ideal stocking stuffer)
- Plug ‘n’ Play – and it shuts off when you shut down your computer
- The USB-Powered Star-Shaped Light Chain with Color-Cycling LEDs retails for $19.99. This week, it can be yours for an insanely low 99¢.
This offer runs from Friday, November 6th through Thursday, November 12th, 2015, or while supplies last. Sorry, no rainchecks.
