I’m unsure about whether or not I’ve mentioned this before, but I have an iPhone 3GS. For those of you unaware, this means that I was able to upgrade to iOS 5, but unable to use quite possibly the best new function of the operating system, Siri. Prior to being purchased for iOS integration by [...]

reozta — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 01:34:08 +0000

With Christmas being less than a week away, I thought I would call everyone’s attention to a fun, quirky little app called Magic Santa. This app give users the opportunity to fill out a short questionnaire and have a personalized video from Santa sent to you. I have attached the test I did for the [...]

In my search for an app that serves as a coupon manager, I stumbled upon an app called “My Mini Wallet.” My Mini Wallet is a step above Track My Coupons in that it the coupon manager includes an option to include a picture of the coupon. My Mini Wallet still requires users to input [...]

Are you the ‘check-in’ type of social networker? If so, you might enjoy Oink. Oink is an app for iPhone that allows users to rate their experiences out in public. The purpose of this is to give people who are unfamiliar with the area or items that establishments sell an idea of where to go [...]

Review: Digital Receipts by Proximiant

reozta — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 03:10:41 +0000

I recently stumbled upon the app, “Digital Receipts.” The concept of the app is that when you go to a store, you receive a ‘tag’ from the store and when you check out, your receipt is sent to your phone rather than it being printed. Unfortunately, I can’t exactly write a review for it. You [...]

Review: Track My Coupons

Everyone is trying to save money these days. One of the easiest ways to save is to utilize manufacture and store coupons. For several months I’ve been clipping and saving on items here and there. And, especially now that I’m purchasing holiday gifts, I’m trying to take advantage of all the savings opportunities available. Unfortunately, [...]

This time of year brings certain Christmas traditions to mind. Watching Christmas movies like Rudolph, hanging candy canes on the tree, wrapping presents while listening to Christmas music – these are all a part of my holiday season. In the spirit of the season, I want to share two of my favorite holiday songs that [...]

On 11:23 p.m. on Thursday, November 24 (Thanksgiving Night), I stepped into line at an entrance to our local mall. My mission? To visit our Old Navy store located within the mall. Because the store did not have an exterior entrance, I picked an entrance that was close to the store. The entrance I chose [...]

Use Strategy…and apps…on Black Friday

reozta — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 03:00:14 +0000

Black Friday. It’s a term that sends men screaming for the hills and women dashing for the stores. It’s a day that retail stores wait for all year. It’s a day that screams, “COMMERCIALISM!” to the world and expects you to bow down before it. I have been a Black Friday shopper and a Black [...]

I’ve wanted to review the iZON camera ever since they came out with it. On November 15th, I finally got the chance to use this camera and iPhone app. I was so excited to get my hands on this device. I would almost say I was like a kid on Christmas morning. I’m about to [...]
