There may come a time when you feel like grabbing yourself one of these devices, but are feeling a tad too stingy to fork out the full amount.

There is a hidden gem of a spot on Apple's official website (near the bottom left of the Store page) where you can find refurbished goodies.

There is free shipping on all of these refurbished devices and they come with a 1-year warranty.

Please do note that these refurbished devices are often from previous generations, so check carefully before you buy!

Sick of reaching for spare change to buy the daily paper? Have an iPad? "The SMH for iPad" is an excellent app with an intuitive interface and even contains video content. Apparently it's only available for free until December (after which it will cost $8.99 per month), so get it while you can!
