Google Remember back in December when Spotify offered that three-month subscription for 99 cents? Mine ran out just a few days ago, so this is some seriously serendipitous timing. For a limited time, you can get a three-month Google Play Music subscription for $3. That works out to just a buck per month (math win!) …

TextNow I first spotted this deal late yesterday, and it’s the kind of thing that tends to melt the Internet — so I don’t know how long supplies will last. While they do, however, TextNow Wireless has the refurbished Motorola Moto G smartphone for $14.99 (plus around $9 for shipping). That’s not your subsidized price in exchange for a two-year …
