‘Tis the season for great holiday deals, and the Apple AirTag 4-Pack is one big example. As Black Friday and Cyber Monday approach, we’re seeing huge discounts on various tech items — often even bigger discounts than during Amazon Prime Day. At 26% off, the Apple AirTag 4-Pack is one of those products that I love so much that I have to share it with everyone, especially when it’s on sale.

I use AirTags to track wallets, keys, remote controls, and even my young kids. Over the past few years, AirTags have become this iPhone user’s go-to tracking device since they’re easy to use, small enough to slip in a bag or outerwear, and extremely reliable. And because there are so many aftermarket cases and holders made for AirTags, you can use them to track anything, including your bike, luggage, and car. They also make great holiday stocking stuffers, and can be split apart or gifted as the set.

You can now buy an Apple AirTag 4-pack for $73 — that’s $18 a piece for peace of mind. AirTags are nearly $30 each at regular price, so this is a great deal. Plus, they don’t frequently drop this low in price (they usually are on sale for $75-$85 dollars), and this is one of the lowest prices we’ve seen them this season. Right now you can snag this deal at Amazon Best Buy, and Walmart
Thanks to my husband, who always forgets where he puts his wallet, keys, and even his shoes, I’ve gone through several different Bluetooth trackers. While I can easily solve his incessant forgetfulness to lock the doors and close the garage with smart devices, I struggled for years to find a reliable Bluetooth tracker for our smaller items — until I tried the AirTag.
The Apple AirTag is so reliable for iPhone users that you can find out where it is down to a fraction of a foot’s length with your phone. The iPhone’s Find My app tracks the AirTag through Bluetooth, the Find My network, and ultra-wideband (UWB), a connectivity protocol that shows high-accuracy directional data. This results in highly accurate tracking information to help you find your lost devices within minutes.

Once I tried the AirTag, I couldn’t consider returning to another Bluetooth tracker. The Apple AirTag is reliable enough to trust it blindly with my home’s most frequently lost items. Thanks to how many AirTag holders exist for different devices, I use AirTags for my husband’s wallet, our car keys, our remote control, and even wristbands.
I like to keep tabs on our younger kids, so I give them an Apple AirTag on a wristband when we go to crowded places. As much as I try to hold their hands when out and about, I have three kids and only two hands, so it’s easy to find my rowdy toddler trying to escape my grip in search of shiny things or fun places to hide. While I tend to be hypervigilant of said threenager, having my kids wear AirTags gives me extra piece of mind during fairs and other crowded events.
