Apps Make It Easier to Shop ‘Til You Drop

Shop ‘til you drop, only easier. There are lots of apps to help you find deals and stay organized this holiday season. Our favs are:

• Shop Savvy scans an item’s bar code (or you can search for it) and locates the best price near you, tapping into its list of 40,000 stores.

• RetailMeNot features printable and scannable coupons for thousands of retailers. With location access on, the app alerts you to deals near you.

• Mint gives you quick, clear visibility into what you’re spending using color-coded infographics. You can also opt for alerts if you exceed your budget.
