Sadly, Black Friday has come to an end, but at least we have Cyber Monday to look forward to! Google is the first company to kick off the Cyber Monday action with its “Cyber Weekend” offers.
Starting today through Tuesday, you’ll be able to get your hands on some pretty impressive gadgets, games, books, music, movies, TV series’ and magazines deals, directly from the Play Store.
Keeping up with the Black Friday spirit, Costco is now selling 3-packs of $20 Google Play gift cards for $48 — that’s $12 off the standard retail price. So, effectively, the mega-retailer is giving you $12 free cash just for shopping with them! This deal will expire Sunday, December 1, so you have plenty of time to take full advantage of this promotion.
NVIDIA is the latest company to jump on the Black Friday bandwagon and is now offering its very own high-end Android-powered handheld gaming system, the Shield, for $249 (that’s an impressive $50 discounted off the retail price), together with a free carry case worth $39.99 and two free games to get you started — Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode 2 and Expendable: Rearmed.
