iTunes Vouchers – Suckers Pay Full Price

Just a quick one tonight.

Over the last few months, I have noticed various outlets selling iTunes vouchers for some percentage off. Usually, it’s 10% off (as I have seen at BP and a couple of other places) but at the moment Dick Smith Electronics is selling iTunes vouchers in-store for 20% off until 2nd July, 2010.

I don’t know who is absorbing the price reduction (bearing in mind Apple gets a 30% cut of the app purchase price and a different percentage for content) but I reckon it is times like these that it’s best to stock up on credit if you buy a lot of content or apps. Sure, it might be a pain having to buy up front but the savings aren’t anything to sneeze at by any means.

I guess the same premise extends to other purchases. Inevitably, there are stock take sales, “end of financial year” sales, post-Christmas sales, etc. If you can hold off on a significant purchase, you might save quite a bit as well as gain access to longer interest free periods.

In 2012, I obtained my Masters of Science in Information Technology through the University of New South Wales @ The Australia Defence Force Academy (UNSW@ADFA).

I was also part of an online community known as the Panasonic Insider Crew in the capacity of “Insider Guru” for Panasonic Australia where I interacted with other tech enthusiasts and find out more about Panasonic's latest gadgets.

I love technology, gadgets, and the Internet and maintain a keen interest in these areas locally, nationally, and globally. I hope by sharing my views on these topics that people will receive an honest point of view from someone with a genuine interest in these topics.
