Friday App Store Deals

I had to get this one as soon as I heard of it. $1.99 is an impulse buy. Guys at TUAW should make this App Store Deals a fixture.

I've been eyeing Cro-Mag for a while and at $1.99, I can't refuse!

I'm having trouble accessing the App Store via WiFi on my iPhone this morning (ditto the iTunes Store). Anyone else having problems?

Thanks for the tip! I bought it too -- the developer actually gains by doing this. I probably wouldn't have bought before because there is so much choice out there!

I tried this with My Eyes Only, a secure info application, and I got the same response from my customers, complaining about the price drop. I dropped from 9 to 7 dollars. MEO received a bad review because of the perceived loss of two whole dollars. Never mind the fact that when they purchased they felt it was worth 9 dollars.
Good luck to the price droppers. I hope they recover the income by getting more sales.

Thank you for tips like this! I have little time to go wading through the titles in the app store. They've made another sale.

I love these types of deals, they have lead me to buy a number of games that I was hesitant to check out. I hope you guys will continue to keep an eye on App Store "Sales" and let us know about them. I would never have paid $10 for Cro-Mag Rally, but I'm really enjoying it at $2! I did the same when Billy Frontier debuted at $3 instead of its later price of $6. I think Apple ought to set aside a "Sale" section for app store deals like these, but then again I'm sure that would start being gamed (Developers debuting at high prices so that they could go on "Sale" for their intended price, and so on.)

I just bought Billy Frontier. Makes me made when I buy something and then they reduce the price.

That's life I suppose.

Thanks for giving me the heads up about the price drops! Just bought Cro-Mag Ralley.
