Ways You Can Save Money Using Your Apple Device
With all of the new apps that come out every day for your Apple Device, it can be hard to choose which ones to download. If you aren’t careful, these apps could cost you a lot of money each year. What’s worse is that many people use these apps for a few days and then forget about them because they are not what they expected or because they are more interested in some new app that has come out. This habit could end up costing you hundreds of dollars each year, but what you may not realize is that there are apps that can help you save money instead of spending it on useless apps. The following are just a few of my favorite apps that do just this.
Coupon Sherpa
One of my favorite ways to save money is with coupons. You may think that saving a few cents here and there isn’t worth the time it takes to find these coupons, but this is why this app is so wonderful. It can give you paperless coupons that can be used at store outlets. These stores can scan the coupon off of your Apple device or enter in the code very easily, and all of these coupons are free when you have the app installed. You can also load these coupons directly to your store loyalty card for convenience. At the end of your shopping trip, you may be surprised how much money you can save.
GasBuddy
Are you sick of paying for a tank of gas only to drive by a station five minutes later that has a low price advertised? The GasBuddy app could help you avoid this problem. The app makes it easy to see what gas stations are charging in your area and help you choose which station to use by entering in your city or zip code. In this free app, the prices are uploaded by other users in real time, so you will know the prices are recent and be able to help others find the lowest gas prices as well.
Skype
You may not have thought about it, but using Skype instead of making a call could keep you from wasting your precious plan minutes. While you can’t use this app all the time, it might be a better option than calling when you can connect to wireless internet. Instead of using your plan minutes to call your family on a business trip, you can Skype with them instead, saving you money at the end of the month if you don’t go over your allotted minutes.
Hulu/Netflix
These apps could save you money on your monthly entertainment budget. Netflix will allow you to watch many movies and TV shows for only $7.99 per month, and Hulu Plus will allow you to watch your favorite TV shows faster than Netflix for the same monthly payment. You can even attach your Apple device to your television to watch your TV show or movie (though, Hulu Plus has only compatible with the iPad right now).While you may not be able to watch your favorite shows in real time, these apps give you the option to save hundreds each year when you replace that monthly cable bill of $75 or more with the $15.98 it will cost for both of these subscriptions each month.
Trapster
Are you one of those people who just can’t seem to avoid traffic tickets? Then this is definitely the app for you. Trapster always has the latest information about red light cameras, usual speed traps, and traffic information. Again, this app relies on information posted by others who have downloaded the app, so you can return the favor by telling others about what you know. However, you should also be aware that this app won’t tell you about ever police officer using their radar gun at any given time, so you should still drive safely.
