Coupon and Saving Apps

Websites and Apps that help you save money on things you are buying.

Yowza!! – (Free, iOS and Android) instead of paper coupons it will notify you of deals in your geographic area, a lot of the deals come straight from the retailer and are available nowhere else.

Checkout 51 – (Free, iOS and Android) pretty much the same thing as iBotta but it has different rebates, what is nice is that sometimes it will be on a generic item like milk or bananas. {again, full disclosure I have this app too} http://app.lk/AaP
