Although Best Buy is more commonly known for its TV sales, the big box retailer is no stranger to laptop deals.

On any given day you'll find a wide array of laptop and tablet deals that cover everything from Chromebooks to 2-in-1s.

Below we're rounding up the retailer's best deals and offering some tips on how to navigate its sales and save the most money possible.

Best Buy Membership & Perks

Best Buy offers three membership tiers with different perks. Its complimentary "My Best Buy" membership gives you free shipping on purchases of $35 or more, rewards points, early access to deals, and a special birthday discount. "My Best Buy Elite" and "My Best Buy Elite Plus" memberships require that you spend $1,500 and $3,500 per year in purchases, respectively. Perks of these memberships include longer return/exchange periods and free shipping with scheduled delivery.

Student Discounts

If you have a valid .edu e-mail address, sign up for Best Buy's Student Deals newsletter and you'll get a special coupon code that stacks on sale prices for additional savings. You'll also get access to other exclusive, student-only savings. The student savings are especially handy during Black Friday, when you can use them to take an extra $50 to $100 off already-discounted priced. Otherwise, you can expect to see student deals like 10 percent off Pixelbooks, $150 off Surface devices, or an extra $100 off select laptops. All student deals are marked as such.
