[US][CAN][everywhere?] Google is Giving Free Money

Thats right you heard correctly. If you are the owner of a Google Chromecast, Google is giving you $6 to use in the Google Play store. there are also some different offers but who is going to pass up free money! From what I have seen it is only for US residents. 

 

 

if the offer works for you and you are not in the US or in CAN. just tag me and let me know and ill adjust the title. 

 

 

 

The Chromecast is not an expensive device, and it's even cheaper when you consider all the free stuff Google has given out to owners since it was released. In fact, the Chromecast has probably paid for itself and then some. Right now you can get a $6 Google Play credit if you have a Chromecast on your network, and you can do it multiple times if you have more than one.

To redeem the credit, simply head over to the Chromecast offers page and let it search the network for your device. On the phone you check through the Chromecast app. Most people see five offers, one of which is the $6 credit. That's the one you want, obviously. The others are mostly trials of various services (see above). If you have more than one Chromecast, refresh the page and do it again.

This is general Google Play money, not just a movie credit. It says, "Enjoy a Valentine’s Day movie rental," but all Google Play dollars are created equal.

Thanks for that! Sadly I am already a Google Play music subscriber, but the free movie + $6 is nice!

For $35 it's worth it to get one, I'm amazed how much I use mine, even just to stream music to my surround sound.

No, the 90 free days of music is only available to new subs. But there is a code for Xmen on mine, pretty BA.

Needs to look for Chromecast on the network

 

Chromecast needs to be on to be detected

 

Chromecast plugged in to downstairs TV's USB port so is only on when TV is on

 

TV is off

 

I'm upstairs in bed

 

ugh

"Rawr XD"

Chromecast is amazing, one for each room.

 

However, I'm also interested in the Fire TV Stick by Amazon.

Thanks, I happen to own one and redeemed this offer just recently, however I'm fairly sure that these offers are on the box and Google makes it fairly obvious once you've set up your Chromecast that there are offers available like this and more.  Anyways, still a good deal, people who missed the stuff on the box will benefit from this post.

 

P.S.  If anyone has a Chromecast that they bought around Christmas and is reading this, redeem your offer soon!  I bought mine at Christmas from Walmart and this deal was about to expire when I redeemed it!

My life is consumed by CS:GO, even though I'm not exceptionally good at it.
