For Earth Day, do the environment a solid and shift your focus to refurbished tech. One of the best gifts you can give to our planet is saving some old tech from hitting the landfill. Not to mention, it'll keep a whole lot more money in your pocket than opting for every trendy new gadget that hits the market.

If you're in the market for a new tablet, consider this deal on a refurbished iPad. As of April 22, you can score a refurbished 9.7-inch iPad (6th generation) for just $179.99 at Walmart. This model originally sold for $329, so you'll ultimately save 45%.

A throwback to simpler times, aka 2018, the 6th generation iPad has the classic iPad aesthetic with some noteworthy upgrades from previous generations. It's not as powerful or pretty as the newest iPad(we've been blessed with three more generations of iPads since), but it still holds its own as an ideal entry-level tablet for everyone. Whether you want a tablet for bedtime Netflix binges or getting work done on the go, the classic design offers reliability and impressive functionality.

When the 2018 iPad hit the scene, its noteworthy upgrades were faster performance, longer 10-hour battery life, and Apple Pencil support (a game-changing feature previously only available to expensive iPad Pro owners). Its other specs are largely similar to previous iPad generations, like the 2048x1536 LED backlit retina display, big bezels, 7.5mm thickness, light 1-pound weight, first-generation Touch ID, 1.2-megapixel FaceTime HD camera on the front, and 8-megapixel camera rear. It's not the most exciting iPad model by far, but it's iconic and familiar and costs less than $200.

The refurbished model in question is space gray, has 32 GB storage, and connects via WiFi only. That means you can only go online with an available WiFi connection, not by using data. It's also listed in "great" condition, which means it's 100 percent functional, but could have a few cosmetic boo-boos. Nothing too noticeable, though.
