(CNN) -- If you've been weighing buying a new Mac or iPad but are holding out for one of Apple's rare discounts, Black Friday is your chance.

As it's done in recent years, Apple is holding a "one-day shopping event" for the day after Thanksgiving. A page on Apple's site invites Black Friday shoppers to visit its online store; it's not clear whether the same deals will be offered at the company's retail stores as well.

Those would be in line with the Black Friday deals Apple offered last year, although the company only marked its iPads down by $41.

9to5Mac also says some accessories, such as iPad covers, will be discounted Friday. There was no mention of any deals on iPhones.
