Apple products are notoriously difficult to get discounts on during any point of the year.

But for a limited time only Australians preparing to travel overseas in the new year can pick up a four pack of Airtags for six per cent off, bringing the price down to $155.

To use the Airtags, the micro chip should be placed in a bag, as it allows its owner to see exactly where it goes on its journey — so if anything goes awry on your travels you can track it down.

The devices have a year-long battery life, so it’s important to keep track of how much juice is left in it before you set off on your travels.

The gadget has saved countless explorers from losing their keys, backpacks and even young children and pets, and it’s as easy as attaching the circular tag to these items, or people.

Those that have taken the plunge already have called Airtags an absolute “lifesaver”.

They have close to 2,000 glowing reviews on Amazon and more than 1,000 four-packs have already been sold so far in December.

“I used these Apple AirTags on a recent holiday in Europe for my luggage, and have now fitted them to my bikes and motorbikes. They are a great device for keeping track of your property,” one shopper wrote.

“Useful in so many ways — for locating wallets, keys, purses, bikes, luggage, computers, cats, dogs, cars, etc., so long as there’s been someone nearby with an Apple iPhone or iPad, and there usually is,” another added.

A third said: “If you have an apple iphone, these are a must! They work beautifully and are so cheap in comparison to other gps tracker units. Love my Apple Airtags!”
