If you're one of those people who's super into clipping coupons (or downloading them), this app is a must. Tons of coupons for retail stores, that you can access straight from your phone.

If you do a lot of shopping at the mall this is probably an app for you to have. The app has a decent number of coupons that are valuable but the vast majority come from stores you'll usually find only at a mall. JC Penny, J Crew, Carl's Jr., Coldwater Creek, the list goes on.
In some cases the view coupon button simply takes you to the website of the store in question, showing you a link to the deal listed there. In some cases that store wants you to print the deal to use it. Hmm... that's a problem. I want the coupon to simply be on my phone, either scannable or with a coupon code.
Because I tend not to shop at the stores in question I haven't had a chance to see if these coupons work but with the differences in how these are being presented and the amount of information spread (or lack thereof) at most retail outlets I question if the salesperson who is ringing you up is going to know what to do with your phone coupon.
Worth a try for a mall shopper but probably not worth it for anyone else.
Coupon Sherpa has coupons from a TON of retailers and it also lets you mark businesses as favorites for easy access. One thing to note: not every store will honor a coupon on your phone. The app allows you to send that coupon to an email address, so before heading out, I recommend printing it, just in case!
