Is it better to buy a MacBook on Black Friday or Cyber Monday?

Retailers of Apple products typically run the same discounts on MacBooks from Black Friday through Cyber Monday. So, this question comes down to whether product stock holds on deals posted on Black Friday through the weekend. We have also seen deals that dry up on Black Friday somehow get revived on Cyber Monday as stock is worked through (or applied to different models), so look out for that as well.
