Anybody got any good bargains lately? I got Need for Speed Shift for £1.19 over the weekend (now gone back upto £3.99) and Fifa 10 cheap all in the EA Sports sale.

What's the latest bargains? is there any good music this week for 59p? Also post any good freebies like apps and this weeks free track.

Free App A Day occasionally have well known premium apps for free, for instance Civilization Revolution was free a few weeks ago. It should be said that the free app is usually junk, but from time to time they have something special.

OpenFeint also have free games for a limited period. I've only just found about that so I don't know if they are all rubbish or if there are sometimes good'uns.

This site has 3 or 4 free apps every day

Mostly rubbish but the odd game here and there is a gem.

Great idea for a thread. I did see an iPad app last night that certainly wasn't a bargain - it was £12.99!!!

That's not bad. Some sat nav apps are up about £40 not sure what the most expensive app is though. There's a music studio for £8 but also a free trial. 'Music Studio Lite' I reckon it would function best on an Ipad though.

Just thought I'd add a few bargains of my own. Most chart singles at 59 are quite poor spent hours scrolling for bargains. Only noticeable chart music that was a bit more mainstream was Eminem most tracks from Curtain call are 59p. Also One Night Only have a track for 59p.

Pah! That's nothing

Check out this one! :O

Incredible.

You could buy 1x Ipad and 2x Ipod touches for that.

Gamesloft games Need For Speed Shift, Hot Pursuit, Real Golf 2011 all down to 59p.

Top Gear Stunt School was over £2 now down to 59p.

Free single of the week on Itunes is from The Vaccines the next big rock band quite popular the now. Also a whole load of 59p singles.

Paper Toss world tour has a new app out for free. There's a free app for the 'Paul' movie out too.

Pitbull - Hey Baby this weeks free single. I'm sure it was a single last year in the charts not bad got free. I got wonderland as a free single of the week the week before too.

how do u get free singles?

Don't forget that regardless of what app you purchase (unless it is temporarily free), to maximise the discount by using reduced price iTunes gift cards rather than paying with a debit or credit card.

Just this last weekend gone, you could get a £15 iTunes card for £10 from most major Co-Op stores if you printed off a downloadable voucher image and handed it in at the till with your £10. So that app discounted to 59p suddenly becomes less than 40p, or splash out on a premium £5.99 app and in reality it only cost you just under £4. Discounted gift-cards are the way to go, but you need to stock up on as many as you need when the offers are running, because most of the time they aren't, and that £15 card for £10 was unusually generous (Argos had a £25 card for £20 for a while, and Clintons Cards had 2x £15 for £22.50 [buy one, get another half price] over the past few months).

Check out this page as that's where I have found out about all the cheap deals

Edit: something I don't understand about the Co-Op deal was who was losing money on it? If I used a £15 card purchased for £10 to buy apps, then Apple pays 70% of that £15 = £10.50 to the app developers. So that is a 50p loss, even before printing the card, then distribution, and the additional costs of selling it in a high-street store. Strange.

Shame I missed the Co op deal.

Usually ITunes vouchers appear on eBay cheaper. The more expensive a one you buy the better the discount I seen a £25 one go for £17. One of the card shops was it Birthdays had a deal where if you bought a £15 voucher you got another half price.

The Birthdays one you mention sounds very much like Clinton's Cards, which had an identical offer (buy one £15, get another half price). Probably the same store, or another part of the group. They certainly sound similar.

Personally, rather than risk someone posting it to me via an eBay deal, I'd prefer getting it for sure there and then in store with the till receipt that shows the card has been validated.

The thing is I've only spent about £20 on iTunes apps in six months (using a £25 card purchased with £12.50 of Tesco Clubcard Rewards points in a clubcard promotion), and now I've got another £15 card and not really wanting to buy many more apps that I use frequently.

I'm not really sure what I'll spend the rest of the credit on as I've now bought everything I used to use frequently for free. Which is try before you buy as it was intended, even if the trial is from a third-party. I've rewarded the app developers by buying their apps, even if it took some time for me to do so There's nothing wrong in that, is there?

Gameloft currently have some ipad titles down to 59p:

N.O.V.A 2 HD
Asphalt 6 : Adrenaline HD
Shrek Kart HD

StarFront Collision HD
The Settlers HD
Sacred Odyssey : Rise Of Ayden HD is free with 59p in-app purchase.

I'll be getting Nova 2 and Asphalt 6. Bargains!!

There will be loads of sales this weekend - it's 4th of July weekend in the US!

That's a good point. Some app developers in the US and A do reduce prices for the silly holidays they have there. Independence day (the end of a long forgotten war) and Thanksgiving day (something like a harvest-festival or something) being the two that are strangest. I'll definitely keep an eye out for price reductions on my favourite apps.

Fragger HD for the ipad is free today.

So is 4 elements which is a good little game.

Bejeweled 2 + Blitz is free this weekend only!!!

Tiger Woods 12 free for Iphone and Ipad today the full version.

Usually costs about about £5 for the Ipad one so it's a great offer.

Various EA and Gameloft games are on sale this weekend...69p!

Thanks for that, downloading it now.

NFL Pro 2012 and Sports Car Challenge are two cool games I found recently and free. Millionaire is also on sale. PES 2012 is free but you have to pay for the upgrade.
