As one of its daily deals, Staples offers the Apple iPhone 5 3.3-Foot Lightning to USB Cable in White (pictured), model no. MD818ZM/A, for $15 with free shipping. That's the lowest total price we could find for this retail-boxed unit by $2; most stores charge beyond $20. (We've seen bulk and generic cables for less.) It's for use with Apple's latest connector, found on the iPhone 5, iPad mini, and latest-generation iPad, iPod touch, and iPod nano

Also available is the Apple 30-Pin Charge & Sync USB Data Cable for iPhone / iPod, model no. MA591G/C, for $15 with free shipping. That's a low by $4. Both deals end today.
