Re: What did you spend you 25 dollar credit on?
I haven't spent my $25 yet. LOL! My wife also got an N7 and even though she is looking for a good book to read on it (having finished the 3rd book of hunger games) she can't find anything she likes. I have the same problem with books. I read all the good steven king and dean koontz novels and I don't like any of their more recent books, so I'm stuck for a good read. I don't buy apps (except rarely, and they tend to be under $5)

Minecraft... let me tell you it does not have Redstone, so that might be a big letdown. If you just like making structures, its worth it. As I've said in other posts, you can refund it for fifteen minutes(or 2 days if you email Google), only once after you buy it.

Re: What did you spend you 25 dollar credit on?
I bought Tablet Talk and the first 8 issues of the new Rocketeer series. Other than that I'm having a really hard time finding things to buy. There haven't been any good sales lately. I have a lot of other apps and games from previous sales. Amazon always matches Google's prices on books so unless it can't be had from Amazon, I probably won't buy it.

I clearly love the Nexus line......

Re: What did you spend you 25 dollar credit on?
I bought a bunch of music. Couldn't tell you exactly what, but I hit a sale of a bunch of albums I like, bought 3-4 albums, and now sitting on $4.03 (I tried getting one app, Tab Pro, but it kept crashing, so I got a refund).

Don't forget if you create an account in Google Wallet and add the google card, they'll give you another free $10 too!

Re: What did you spend you 25 dollar credit on?
You can get a screen auto/lock rotation app that also works on the home screen... for free! "Screen Orientation Control" from the play store.
I spent my free $25 only on 2 things so far.
1. Beautiful widgets HD Not sure if I really needed to spend the money on it the day I got my N7....but I did with some regret now after getting to know android and the N7.
2. Nexus Media Importer. Use external flash/usb drives with NO ROOTING! This was the best purchase so far.
At this point, I am waiting to see things appear in the next 2-10 months before I use up the free store credit. Because I have seen apps come up for free that were the same type of apps that were once pay apps.....I will hold off and only use my credit for something I really need or seem worth while.
I don't play games on the N7 as I find them to be extremely boring on a 7 inch screen and do not want to use external control devices. I have several PC's to play games if I need.
I was tempted to get one of the pay keyboard apps....but I like the voice command on the stock keyboard and have not found any pressing needs for a diff keyboard yet. I do not type that much besides limited emails and find the voice to text software extremely useful and works very well in the mean time. - 08-27-2012, 10:05 PM #16
Just buying things I'd have bought anyway. Comic books! I was reading comics using comixology on my triumph and have been using my credit go keep up with deadpool, saga, and morning glories! :-D

I got... Tapatalk.. Asphalt heat.. Beautiful widgets.. Six axis controller. And if there was anything else I can't think of it. I've got about $16 left. I think Google wanted us to spend this money a lot faster than some of us have. Lol.

Re: What did you spend you 25 dollar credit on?
I bought Great Little Wargame, Reckless Racing and Smart Office 2. I wish we had the option to buy movies but sadly that is not the case so at the moment I'm waiting for either Google play to offer that function or Netflix to allow downloads............

OFF TOPIC POST:
I do the same thing, only Barnes and Noble. I have a ton of DRM free epubs that I can open in their app, too. Just seems to flow together pretty well, for me. Besides, you can usually find ebooks in either of these for less than the cost of Google's offerings (I have no idea if my grammar came out correctly in that last part).

Re: What did you spend you 25 dollar credit on?
I bought the Vulkano Flow app for 12.99 (for my Vulkano device, which is sorta like a slingbox, well it's exactly like a slingbox), plus a few of those 2.99 CDs, and a couple games, but the main thing was the Vulkano app.

Re: What did you spend you 25 dollar credit on?
I've spent most of my credit on Gaming and PC Magazines. They are only 99 cents! Sweet deal considering it costs a ton more at the store.
