Amazon Appstore turns one

It’s been quite awhile since Amazon set foot into the Android app business by launching its own app store – the Android Appstore. Today, Amazon announced the Appstore’s first birthday and to commemorate it, they’ve decided to give Amazon customers a whole week of deals for some of its most popular apps. Today, customers will be able to purchase Plants vs. Zombies at 67% off – that’s $0.99 for one of the most popular games available on the store.

Tomorrow, Amazon will be announcing two more app deals, three on the third day, and so on for the whole week. Besides app discounts, Amazon will also be holding a Birthday Giveaway that will award a Kindle Fire to eight lucky winners who enter the sweepstakes by March 31^st. It looks like there’s going to be something for everyone in this weeklong celebration. If you’re keen on finding out which apps are being given away or discounted, or you want to enter the sweepstakes, head over to Amazon’s website for more details.
