You can listen to my reviews every Monday on Moore in the Morning at 6:45 am and follow me on Twitter here for more great apps.
For the past five days Google has been running a major app sale. With each new day they've dropped the price on a dozen apps to just 25 cents. They're not easy to find at first, and after 24 hours Google removes each daily list while the sale price seems to remain for a day and a half, so I'm listing them here for easy reference.
Today is the last day of the sale and since the point of this for Google was to celebrate 25 billion downloads from their store, it could be awhile until we see another like it again. If you're reading this on Sunday, the apps from day four should still be on sale. If you're reading this on Monday morning, all that's left is the list below and you'd best grab them before the afternoon arrives and the sale comes to a final close.
