money Saving Shopping Apps and Reward cards
Money Saving Apps and Reward Cards are great tools to use when shopping. They'll make navigating the deals easier and help save you some money in the process! Some of the savings are instant — others require you to build up the savings, and when it reaches a certain dollar amount you're able to cash out. Either way, these apps are worth exploring, downloading, and giving a test drive:
The Amazon App has so many features, and many of them will definitely help you save money. My favorite is the Deal of the Day, which features a popular item available at a substantial discount. This feature gets beefed up between black friday and Christmas, with more deals, lightning deals, and other offers.
The Trending Deals section of the app will let you know what other items people are finding and snapping up. I've seen items over 90% off in this category. While that isn't the norm, checking it out can result in some fantastic savings.
Prime Members get some amazing perks that they likely don't even know about. For example, you can upload images of you comparing certain outfits with their “Outfit Compare” feature. Super fun!
Make sure you download your local grocery store app and look into a store rewards card. For example, for me it's the My Cub Rewards card. With most cards like this, you can download the app, pair your Rewards Card number, and use it to explore in-store savings as well as check out online coupons you can use.
Add savings to your card by logging into your rewards account and adding coupons from the weekly ad, coupon book or the coupon section of the site. No clipping or snipping coupons. You can also use the app to order groceries and create shopping lists.
When you shop at CUB Foods, hand the cashier your physical rewards card or have him or her scan the barcode on your app. Savings come off automatically. Plus, you will receive your fuel discount on qualified purchases.
You can sign up for a CVS ExtraCare Card online or in-store, as well as download the app. Use it to earn rewards both in store and online.
In the store, rewards will print at the ExtraCare Card Center or on your cash register receipt, wherever you scan your card first. To get them online, create a CVS.com Account and attach your ExtraCare card when prompted. Then sign in to your account and go to the My Savings & Rewards tab in My ExtraCare to print your rewards.
You also have the option of loading select digital coupons right onto it from the CVS site. The coupons will then automatically deduct at the register when you checkout. This will help eliminate the need to print coupons at home.
