[Staples] 6-ft MFI Lightning-USB Cable - Good Quality, Braided - $5 Clearance, Free Next-Day Shipping

Deal Link:: https://www.staples.ca/products/2968261 ... -warm-grey
Price:: $4.97
Expiry:: May 15, 2022
Retailer:: Staples

Saw this 6-ft lightning to USB cable on clearance at Staples. Purchased a few for myself, seem to be much better quality, and longer, than the Dollarama cables for $3-4.

A couple of notes:
1. the image in the pic is wrong, and shows a USB-C cable (description accurately describes an MFI lightning cable)
2. it appears that there's a Navy colour option also, but that IS actually a USB-C cable (despite that image actually showing a lightning cable - I ordered it and confirmed it's USB-C)

Also crazy that Staples has free next-day shipping with no minimum purchase!

Happy Charging!!

The Warm Grey one shows USB-C cable but description is for lightning cable. The Navy color showed a lightning cable but description says USB-C. Very confusing.

It wouldn't ship for me in Ontario, but it did allow me to place the order to mail to AB.

I bought one of the Dollarama Tech1 cables and lasted only 2 weeks before the lighting connector snapped in half. If you get these, just be gentle with them!

I ordered this from Amazon a few months ago and I have no issues: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07XS3VS64/

Granted, it is not $5 but this deal is DEAD.
