    Hi,
    I'm going to be upgrading my iPhone to an iPhone 6 or a higher spec and also want to buy an iPad, wireless noise cancelling headphones and a GPS watch for running. The total will be fairly big.
    Any ideas of places that give a decent discount on this sort of bundle buy?

    Cheers, Will.

    prepare to be disappointed - very little margin on Apple products. Try the usuals - HN, Currys, CompuB.

    Why not shop around and buy them individually? You can buy a refurbished iPhone 6 Plus and the Bose QuietComfort 35's on ebay for around €270.

    Maybe, Hold out till September for the iPhone because if the iPhone 8 comes out their might be a price drop.

    Also, are you a student? Apple Student offer this year will be three different styles of beats if you buy an iPad pro.

    Beyond that as a poster said try the likes of Argos who had a great deal on the SE recently

    There's a bargain alert thread for the QC35's Amazon Spain/Germany sell them quiet regularly at €270.

    Not to sound mean but I'd say the average basket price on apple.com is similar to yours, it's kinda hard to buy any Apple hardware and have change out of €1000

    One thing to note if you're a frequent flyer and have an avios.com account if you buy from apple using their link you can get 6 points per every euro you spend at apple.com. you may think that's not great but consider it's roughly 15000 points to get a one way to New York you're nearly half way there with your basket price.
