APPS THAT SAVE: ERRANDS MADE EASY

Find the Best Price: Out shopping for shoes when you suddenly remember you need a wedding shower gift? Use SaveBenjis.com to search by keyword for a list of nearby retailers that carry, say, a nice set of 400-threadcount sheets. Alternatively, scan the barcode of a book, lipstick, blender, or anything else you're eyeing to find out if other nearby stores or websites are selling it for less. ($1.99 at the iTunes store)

Find Local Yard Sales: Yard Sale Treasure Map pulls local yard sale listings from Craigslist and even maps your route from one to the next. (Free for iPhone at YardSaleTreasureMap.com)
