We may be a bunch of grown-up yahoos around the WGUB… but even our hearts are melted by all things Disney. Hey, It’s the American way!
To show us their appreciation for a change, Disney’s iPhone App department (of course they have one) is giving us one of their coveted… and normally $2… apps for FREE, TODAY ONLY!!! It the ToyHopper – Gift Ideas and Toy Finder app. It’s a joint-effort app between Disney and Amazon.com (yeah, we forgave them since they took that book down) to take all of that hardened Holiday shopping crap and melt it away with an easy-breezy virtual shopping experience! Now you can go to the mall to simply sit on a bench and laugh at everyone else. See, iPhones DO RULE!!!!!
Check out how Disney themself explains the app… right after the video:
