Amazon's offering a 40-Apps bundle: Apps that cost (total $220) but which are free through Dec. 26, 2014
Though it's called "Free App of the Day Bundle" it's apparently free until the day after Christmas, which makes more sense. I've edited the title. But they say "until" rather than "through" so note that wording.
The Muscular System Manual app shown here might help with physiology classes, but the main reason I used this app's image as the lead is that the normal cost of this app is set for $64 but it's free for the next couple of days.
I had not looked at most of the 40 apps to see what prices were but was curious about this educational one.
WELL, they added, on the bundle-listing page, after I typed that, the prices for each app -- very helpful.
For UK and Canada - (specific items shown for U.S. are also available on UK and Canada's bundle pages)

How the Grinch Stole Christmas - normally $4.99.
This Christmas bundle is definitely worth a look, and, again, they're available now through Dec. 26.
Too bad Amazon is doing this the day before Christmas. The day after those who get new Kindle tablets would be delighted with all these free downloads. But perhaps Amazon realized that and would rather they pay in their initial enthusiasm for a new toy.
ReplyDeleteMy bad, Inkling. That deal is actually good "until December 26" (I don't know whether they mean it ends at 11:59pm Dec 25 or not but they chose to not use the word "through"...)
