Continuing with the parade of awesome app sales for Memorial Day, Gameloft has slashed 85% off two of their hottest titles.

iOS Universal: The Dark Knight Rises $.99 (Reg. $7)
iOS Universal: The Amazing Spider-Man $.99 (Reg. $7)

For other app deals check out EA’s massive sale, over 55 games for $.99 and our latest app roundup.

Update: The deal is now live.  Head over to Best Buy to save $50 on any iPhone with a 2 year contract.

Beginning this Sunday, Best Buy will be extending a $50 discount on every current iPhone offering when purchased with a 2 year contract, reports AllThingsD.  This promotion is said to make a 4 week run and will drop the price of an iPhone 5 down to just $150.

Historically speaking, iPhones do not typically see many discounts until they near the end of their life cycle when retailers try to clear old stock.  But the iPhone 5 has been on sale a couple times already, as low as $127 from a Walmart in-store promotion.  It’s believed that increased competition from low-cost smartphones and retailers attempting to drive traffic into stores are catalysts for these promotions.

The 9to5Toys team is expecting more heavy discounts on Apple products all weekend to celebrate Memorial Day, be sure to stop by and see what’s happening.

Update: Both deals are going in/out of stock frequently, it is best to keep checking.

Earlier this week we found that Walmart was offering the current generation iPod nano refurbished at a heavy discount.  Now Walmart also has a refurbished iPad mini 16GB WiFi for just $250 with free in-store pickup or $5 shipping.  That is the lowest price we have ever seen a refurbished or new iPad mini go for from a reputable seller.  Other models are also available including AT&T / Verizon cellular versions.  The iPad mini features a 7.9″ screen, front-facing camera for video chat and a 1080P HD video recording rear camera.  Available in black and white.

Also available, iPad mini 64GB WiFi (Brand new) for $450, $80 off retail.
