Early Black Friday: Up to 35% off ThinkPad X1 Carbon & Yoga

It may still be October but Lenovo (along with many other retailers) is already kicking starting their "Early Black Friday" Sale. Starting last night at 5PM, Lenovo's flaghship ultraportable 6th generation ThinkPad X1 Carbon can be scooped up for 35% off thanks to a limited time running coupon code.

As of writing, you can pick up the base model with the 8th generation Core i5-8250U for just shy of under $1,000 at $987. That's a pretty good price considering the popular laptop is consistently over $1,000 for the past 3-5 months. This is a great deal for those who don't want to wait an extra month for what amounts to another 5% off in savings. Just make sure you use coupon code THINKEARLYBF at checkout to get the discount shown below.

The same code works on ALL X series, including the comparable X1 Yoga, the venerable X280 and newer X380 Yoga, and even for the pricey high-end X1 Extreme (which can clock upwards to $3,500). We personally prefer the Carbon but machines at these price range are often subjective.
