by It’s that time of year again, Apple’s 12 days of Christmas (not the generic holiday term) where the Cupertino giant gives away freebies starting from the 26th December. To get your daily freebie all you need to do is grab the app from the and I’d recommend leaving on push notifications to get alerted when the next freebie lands.
This is the third year that we’ve tracked the free offerings Apple has bestowed upon us. Check out the 2011 giveaways and 2012 giveways< to get an idea of what’s in store for us this year. Day 1 : iTunes Festival: London 2013 – Single – Justin Timberlake
Day 2 : Africa Episode 1. Kalahari. Apple hasn’t listed todays gift for £12.99 – or whatever it might equate to elsewhere – it is definitely listed for free. Yes, tapping view gift takes you to something priced at £12.99, but that isn’t the gift.
Take a closer look at the image above, where “Kalahari” is clearly displayed, an episode from the BBC series “Africa”. Tap on the same episode when you’re sent to the iTunes Store and you’ll see that it is indeed a free download. Apple’s mistake isn’t pricing their gift, Apple’s mistake is not taking you directly to the episode that’s free.

‘Will you marry me?’
I think of you, then. I think of you every day. But usually in the quietest part of the morning, or the darkest part of the night. Not when my boyfriend of two years has just proposed.
