This is the shortest, sweetest, most money-saving tip you’ll read all week.
Apple
must make half its billions just on cables and adapters. The company
keeps switching connector types, too, so we have to keep buying adapters
and new cables. FireWire? No—now it’s Thunderbolt. MagSafe? No—now it’s
MagSafe 2. 30-pin iPhone connector? No—now it’s a Lightning cable, and
it’ll cost you $20.
Unless you buy Amazon’s clone of the Lightning cable—for 8 bucks.
Same
exact cable, priced 60 percent lower. If you go for the six-foot-long
version, you save even more money. Apple’s is $30, Amazon’s is $8.79. You save 70 percent.
Heck, you could afford a couple!
