Many online stores already started their discount offers for Black Friday. Here are some apps for pre-Black Friday deals.
If you plan on venturing out in the wee hours after Thanksgiving , or have your eye on a particular online sale, your iPhone can be a great aid for finding that sought-after gadget or scouring for additional discounts from specific stores. The following apps can help you hone in on what you’re after, so you can get back to what the holidays are supposed to be about instead of spending time in a mosh pit of commercialism gone mad.
TGI Black Friday
TGI Black Friday (free) compiles listings from the Internet and published ads, which you can sort by store or category, or search for specific products. The search works pretty well; it pulled up several different models of Chromebooks when I typed “Chromebook” into the search bar and was similarly accurate with other product searches. If you find something that you’re interested in exploring later, save it to a dedicated list inside the app.
Black Friday Shopping (Free)
The mobile app for BlackFriday.com—called Black Friday Shopping (free), fittingly— is like a digital collection of those thirty-page weekly newspaper sales guides you get in the mail.
SnipSnap (free)
It's great app to have year round, not just on Black Friday. You can use it to digitize all your coupons by taking photos of individual paper coupons so they’re always at the ready when heading to the store. It also has a social element—other users can share their coupons to a community stream, which you can then snag and add them to your own database.
Cartwheel by Target (free)
This app simplifies all of Target's coupons and discounts by placing them all within the app. Scroll through to find deals you like, then tap on the item to add it to your “cartwheel,” which is the holding pen for your saved coupons.
Google Express (free)
Why venture out into the cold and crowds if you don’t have to? The holiday shopping season is as good a time as any to try out Google’s nascent shopping service.
