Discounted iTunes Gift Cards from Select Stores

Itunes_redeem
Rather than using my credit card to pay for songs and apps on iTunes I usually use discounted gift cards. At the moment select stores are selling $50 iTunes gift cards for $45. To apply an iTunes gift card to your account, go to the iTunes Store and on the home page select the Redeem link from the Quick Links menu on the top right of the page. When prompted, enter the redeem code and your balance should be increased. Hopefully, you have a store in your area selling these discounted gift cards. That's a 10% discount on songs and apps. Let me know if you have come across other iTunes discounts out there?

Whistler Blackcomb Live App

The ski season is here and the snow at Whistler and Blackcomb has been incredible. The week I was there it snowed 7-12 cm each day. Best of all I downloaded the Whistler Blackcomb Live App for iPhone and it's awesome. You can track your season Edge Card passes, when you use them and how many you have left. The App has lift status, snow conditions, weather status, weather cams and best of all using GPS it can track every run. The run tracker tracks speed, vertical, distance and shows each run on a map. I have not been able to put the App down even when I am not skiing so I can see the conditions on the mountains and look forward to my next trip. So have you tried out the Whistler Blackcomb Live App?
