Every so often, people browse the Internet and the Mac App Store to try and find useful things to add to their app arsenal, but sometimes it's hard to find discounted apps that you really want to get. For
App Deals for OS X, the
MacNN staff has compiled a list of apps for your Mac that are either a great bargain, or even free for a short while.

We use -- and really like -- the various photo-enhancing apps from Macphun, so when there's a sale on some of their very best apps, we want you to know. Currently, the company is offering Snapheal (a brilliant item-removing tool), Tonality (outstanding B&W effects and filters), and Noiseless (does a great job of eliminating "graininess" in photos) for $8, $10, and $8 respectively. All three are 4.5 or higher-rated apps, and normally sell for $15, $20, and $10 (again respectively). They work as standalone applications, or with Apple's Photos app, so there's just no way to go wrong with these. Check them out and pick them up on sale.
