Mobile Apps To Help You Save Money

In my previous post "The Importance of Couponing", I referenced apps that help me with my couponing process. Listed below are the apps that I use to not only help me find the best deals, but also keep my couponing organized. I use iOS operating systems, but some of these apps are compatible with iOS & Android.

Shopkick

I like shopkick because if you are going shopping, you get points just for walking into stores as well as scanning items in the store you're in. Those points can be used towards gift cards to your favorite stores and websites. You are not even obligated to buy anything in the stores you enter.

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shopkick.app

Groupon

Most people are familiar with Groupon, but for those who aren't, you get amazing deals anywhere from 25%-75% on item, trips, as well as activities in your area. I have used many a groupon for things like spa days, date nights, even electronics. You can even purchase them as gifts.

RetailMeNot

The awesome thing about this app is that it provides you not only with coupon/discount options for nearby stores, but you can also look for promo codes if shopping online. It will also let you know the success rate of said discount/promo code.

Coupons.com

Coupons.com is by far my most utilized app. I can go on my mobile device and select what manufacturers coupons I would like to use, then I can go on the website and then print out my coupons. There are different categories you can choose from, and you can even set up loyalty cards to assist you with your savings. I use this app/website almost weekly.

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coupons.ciapp

Keyring

This is another app that helps me out almost on a daily basis. This app I have actually been using for years. Instead of keeping your keys with you and saving all those millions of rewards cards, you have one place where you can store them. you just enter or scan your rewards card, and whenever you enter that store, your barcode will be duplicated in the app. The store can scan your phone and you take advantage of the savings.

iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/key-ring-reward-cards/id372547556?mt=8
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.froogloid.kring.google.zxing.client.android

There are many other apps that can be used to help your daily savings. Please feel free to download these apps to see how they help you with your daily savings and please feel free to share how they have helped you or other apps that you use.
