The 'Drops Indicator' Tells Shoppers How Many People Have Bought a Product
Since there are limited quantities available, the Best Drops Feature lets shoppers know how many people have already got the product to estimate their chances of getting it. Shoppers can go for an immediate purchase depending on how popular the product is.
Drops Come Along with Regular Discounts
The Drop offers apply in tandem with the regular discounts offered by Best Buy. This means that if a product already has a discount on it, it may become even cheaper once it Drops. When Best Buy Drops kicked off, Best Buy celebrated the launch by offering the Apple Watch Ultra 2 for $729, which was about $70 off the original price as per Tomsguide.
Members Can Save Even More
Members of My Best Buy Plus and My Best Buy Total get further discounts even on the Dropped products. Members can use their privileges to further reduce the price of the Dropped items.
