To Buy or Not to Buy?
Sometimes during the gift purchasing process we pick something up that we are unsure about, especially when it’s in a field we know nothing about. Tools and car accessories are two things I know nothing about. I once bought a drill per the recommendations of a store clerk, and it didn’t last longer than a year. Luckily, there are apps to help put your mind at ease. Before you buy you can check unbiased reviews about a variety or products and find out if you need to keep looking or if you've found the perfect item and can check it off your list.
Check out Buy or Not (FREE)
You can also try the Consmr app (FREE) for more product reviews.

Get Around and Don't Get Lost
If you're doing most of your shopping on foot or by car, you should definitely check out MyCityMyWay (FREE). it will help you navigate through the holiday traffic and even help you find some good eateries in the area to refuel.
