#4: Amazon Price Check

The next time you are out shopping and your child starts begging for you to buy a particular toy, just give the one-word response: Amazon. Amazon’s prices are ultra-competitive, often under-pricing the competition in just about every category. How do we know this? We have the Amazon Price Check app—a simple little tool that can save you big bucks. Use your iPhone to scan the bar code on any item at any store and Amazon will search its inventory to let you know what it would charge. Add in free Super Saver or Prime shipping that gets your item to you within two-three days and suddenly buying online makes a whole lot of sense.
