Save money using shopping apps

Saving money is easier than ever with free, downloadable cash-back applications available on smartphones. These must-have apps put money back into your wallet.

GetUpside provides up to 25 cents per gallon cash back on gas at 1,000+ gas stations up and down the East Coast. In just one month, I saved $5.72.

Use Walmart’s Savings Catcher app by scanning your store receipt and earning money back if competitors have lower prices. In one year, I saved $130.97.

Shopping through Ebates earns cash back on retail purchases. Get over 40% cash back at 2,500+ stores.
