Every weekend someone will decide to give away a paid app for free for a few days/limited time ...

In the past I just search the top 100 apps and will find at least 1 or 2

But with the burst of so many apps now they don't appear in the top 100 ...

What do people do to find these free paid apps?

Thanks

Appsgonefree.com website is what I use. Its pretty good as they don't bother with too much rubbish, only somewhat quality.

I use appadvice.com's rss feed through blogtrottr.com with a filter for the words "free apps" set to check every 24hrs and email me the result.
