Store News Is The Easiest Way To Find Mac App Store Deals

If you’re not a regular #MacStoriesDeals reader (you should be), here’s a nice Mac app that will help you find the best offers available in the Mac App Store. Store News, a free app available here, allows you to check for deals of free and paid apps in a simple to use interface that brings offers and price drops to the desktop.

The app doesn’t seem to rely on the usual AppShopper infrastructure (the one we love and rely on to curate our daily deals section), instead it aggregates what are considered the best offers from the developers. The app is streamlined and comes with three tabs in the top toolbar to switch between all apps, the ones available for free and paid apps. A blue button similar to the Mac App Store “Buy” one will open a new tab in your web browser, allowing you to launch the Mac App Store and download what you want. Store News also displays previous price before the price drop and a percentage of how much you’re going to save with each deal.

Store News is a pretty good way to stay up to date with offers in the Mac App Store. Combined with AppShopper and our Deals posts, it’ll help you achieve the ultimate deals hunter setup on your Mac. Go download it here.
