Ways to Save Money on Your iPad Accessories
What’s the one major resolution you have for 2014? Is it
losing weight? Is it quitting smoking?
Is it getting a better job? For many people, it’s saving money anyway they can.
In fact, saving money is such a popular New Year’s resolution that it is listed
on the government’s
website on New Year’s resolutions. This especially makes sense since we’re
just getting over the Holiday Season. But saving money, of course, is easier
said than done. However, it isn’t impossible. Oftentimes, a few small actions can
make a major difference. Let’s take, for example, how you approach spending money
on your iPad and accessories. Here are some things to consider:
Protecting your
current accessories: If you have ever had a cat, you know that they have a
magical attraction to expensive accessories. The second your cat sees your iPad
charger, for example, he will immediately pounce on the cord. Many chargers
have been warranted useless from cat bites. If you don’t have pets, you can
still get your accessories wet, step on them or break them in some fashion that
we couldn’t even imagine. Make sure to put your accessories away when you’re
not around, so you don’t have to spend money replacing them.
Buying affordable
designer cases: If you’re a millionaire, check out this New York Times
article about iPad cases that can cost $1000 or more. Unless you have a trust
fund, you’ll most likely need to find designer iPad cases
that are also affordable. SwitchEasy offers a number of options available that
are as utilitarian as they are affordable. In addition, they look good too. We
recommend that you always have a case on your iPad to avoid a costly mishap,
which could result in the need for the replacement of your iPad.
Rethink where you buy
your accessories: One of the easiest ways you can save money on your iPad
accessories is by considering where you shop for your accessories. If you shop
for accessories from Apple directly you can expect to pay much more than you
would from let’s say an online site like SwitchEasy. If you’re looking for
other types of accessories, like chargers or keyboards, eBay, Craiglist and
thrift stores are all viable options if you’re willing to take on the inherent
risk involved with purchasing from these sources.
By reviewing how you use your accessories as well as how
what and where you buy any new accessories, you might be surprised at how much
you can save. For more information on our designer iPad cases, contact us
