    Google Play Store: Disney Kids Games For Free!

    The Google Play Store has free Disney apps for download on right now for your smartphone or tablet.

    My kids are always stealing my phone to play Angry Birds, and while that is a pretty fun game, it would be nice to give them some variety. I know there are a lot of free apps out there, but when this free offer for Disney games came up, I definitely took advantage of it. These games are normally $2 – $5 and I don’t know how long they will be free, so if you want them, install them now.

    Choose from:

    • Where’s My Perry?
    • Where’s My Water?
    • Where’s My Valentine?
    • Nemo’s Reef
    • Puffle Launch Lite
    • Toy Story Live Wallpaper
    • Pirates of the Caribbean
    • Wreck-It Ralph
    • Temple Run: Brave
    • many more

    Simply click the install button and select your compatible device.

    Google Play Store: How The Grinch Stole Christmas Interactive Book for Only 99 cents + More Dr. Seuss Deals (Up to 80% Off)

    Google Play Store: How The Grinch Stole Christmas Interactive Book for Only 99 cents + More Dr. Seuss Deals (Up to 80% Off)

    I’m all for vegetation homicide but only as a pastime. Putting it to good use, like making books out of it, is caveman thinking. That’s why Bargainmoose and Google Play are bringing you Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas for only 99 cents!

    (I’m kidding, by the way. If your pastime is cutting down trees for no good reason, you’re probably an idiot.)

    I don’t know the before price but I think it was $4.99. Regardless, 99 cents is an amazing deal for this app. The app is made by Oceanhouse Media who has done this with dozens of books, many of which I own for my son. They are the masters at digitizing books for a touch screen device and adding all the modern touches to help your kid learn and enjoy the book.

    They take these books and break them down into three reading modes:.

    • “Read to Me” — listen to the narrated story with words highlighted as they are read
    • “Read it Myself” — read the book in its traditional form
    • “Auto Play” — plays like a movie, automatically reading and turning pages. Great for younger children!
    As I said, I have a bunch of these for my son (although I personally find It’s Tyrannosaurus Rex! to be particularly thrilling) and they really are great books. I’m not one to parent other peoples children but for me, these are family activities.
    You could definitely plop your kid on the couch with a tablet and let it read to him but I find it better to sit with him and read along. Seems less like sticking him in front of another warmly glowing babysitter.
    If the Grinch isn’t your thing, all the Oceanhouse Dr. Seuss books are 40% to 80% off this week so have at it!

    Google Play Store: 2 Android Apps to Save You Money on Android Apps!

    Google Play Store: 2 Android Apps to Save You Money on Android Apps!

    Most apps don’t cost very much, but do you know what’s better than paying 99 cents for an app? Getting an app for free! AppSales and AppWatch help you get the best deals on apps!

    These are the apps we’re focusing on today:

    One of the biggest problems with the Google Play store (and any other app store. Read: iTunes) is that it’s basically a giant farmers market that is way too big for you to walk through. App makers get their little spot in the giant store and hope that someone stumbles upon their app. If the app makers put an app on sale, there is a huge portion of people in the market place (I’d say most by a large margin) who will never see it. They might get featured on a website, podcast, TV show or article and get some traffic, but they are still going to miss a lot of people.

    That is where the first app, AppSales, comes in. AppSales combs the Google Play Store and finds all the apps that are on sale. It’s as simple as that. They even let you filter your results by downloads, discount amount and category. The app itself has a clean interface that is leaning towards the Holo design standards, which is very nice. If you’re worried about data or battery, AppSales lets you choose how often it polls for new sales.

    The second app deals with a similar but unique issue. The issue is that sometimes you are looking at an app but it costs $4.99 or $9.99 or $49.99 and you just don’t want to pay that much for it. You could go back and look at the app 12 times a day, hoping that it goes on sale but you could just get our second app, AppWatch.

    AppWatch lets you specify an app and will tell you when it goes on sale or, if you’re interested, when the app is updated. The interface is very bare bones and simple with a search feature and a refresh button and not much else. You can choose if you want to get notifications about sales or updates or both. An added piece of functionality is that AppWatch gets added to your list of “share” programs, meaning that if you tap to share an app in the play store, you can share it to AppWatch, which adds it to your watch list.

    Google Play Store: Get the Best 7″ Tablet on the Market for Only $209

    Posted by on July 26, 2012 at 4:00 PM

    Google Play Store: Get the Best 7 Tablet on the Market for Only $209

    You can’t get a better tablet or a better tablet deal than this anywhere right now. Here’s the best part, it isn’t a deal at all. It’s regular price.

    First up, I know this isn’t really a deal in the traditional sense that you see on Bargainmoose. It isn’t a sale, it’s just a regular price that absolutely cannot be beat by anyone else out there except MAYBE Amazon.  Of course I’m talking about the Amazon Kindle Fire which isn’t officially available in Canada and isn’t really the full-fledged Android experience.

    So why is this such an Amazing deal? Well, it is because the whole thing is subsidised entirely by Google. This means that Google making little or no money on this. Some people (including myself) think they are loosing money on every unit they sell. They make their money off of you using the product. Books, Apps, Videos, Search, Youtube, etc…

    So how good is this tablet? Here are the critical specs: 7″ 1280×800 HD IPS display, 1.2MP front facing camera, Quad Core Tegra 3 Processor, 1GB RAM, Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) 8GB Memory (16GB coming soon for $50 more), 4325 mAh battery, 340 grams. For all the info on this tablet, check out the Google Play Nexus 7 page. Ignore the $199 price point, it’s the American price.

    And of top of all that you get the unadulterated Android experience (Get updates before other tablets and no overlays put on there by other companies), a $25 Google Play credit (limited time) and a copy of Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon.
