Nov 2-8: B1G1 Kodak Photo paper at ODP/OMX

For the shopping week of November 2-8 in 2014, at Office Depot and Office Max brick and mortar stores, they are running a “Buy One, Get One Free” (mix and match) promotion on Kodak Photo paper. Prices range from $12 to $40. Availability may vary from store to store. How good/bad this deal is depends on the actual prices of the photo paper which are not mentioned in the ad, so it is a YMMV… The promotion is in their weekly ad for their brick and mortar stores. I don’t know if it will also be available on their websites as well…

Free Premium Photography Apps: Lapse It Pro, BeFunky Photo Editor Pro, XnInstant Camera Pro, Plex (ends Sat PM)

Amazon has another free premium app promotion. These are apps that you have to otherwise pay to get. This promotion is good until the end of day on Saturday 11/1/14. A total of 40 premium apps are participating. You can scoop up as many as you want (including all of them). The photography-related ones:

If your device is not compatible with the app, you can still get it by using a web browser. When the popup tells you that the app is incompatible, just tell it to go ahead and scoop it up… Another helpful thing, the latest version of the Amazon Android (Google Play) app is now able to sideload your Amazon-purchased Android apps, so you don’t have to install the separate Amazon AppStore app… You may need to have at least one Android device connected to your Amazon account before it lets you get any apps. I haven’t tried this with a disconnected account in a while, so I don’t know if they changed this…
