Best Buy is bringing back a recent promotion that could help consumers shave $200 off the cost of a new iPad.


Highlighted in a Best Buy memo snagged by blog site 9to5Mac, the deal rewards consumers with a minimum $200 gift card for trading in a working iPad 2 or third-gen iPad. That $200 gift card presumably is valid for most BB items. But Best Buy is touting it as good toward the purchase of a new fourth-generation iPad.


The latest edition iPad with Retina Display and 16GB of storage sells for $499.99.


According to the leaked memo, the promotion starts Tuesday, July 23, and runs until Saturday, August 3. This is the same deal that Best Buy launched earlier this month but only for two days.


In June, the retailer ran a promotion that gave customers a "free" iPhone 5 for trading in a working iPhone 4 or 4S. These deals seem to be scoring well with consumers and with Best Buy. The company revealed that it saw the single biggest day for its trade-in business during the iPhone promotion.

The bottom line: The latest iPad adds several tweaks and improvements to secure its position at the top of the tablet heap. It's better all around, but third-gen owners need not apply. Read Full Review
