Every week an I find an App that makes me say 'Wow, I can't believe they have an App that does that!' This week's App is no different. Savvy.com has an App that will actually save you money even after you have purchased something and taken it home!
Imagine that! Not only do retailers give you coupons and deals and other incentives to buy, now there's an App that will give you money back even after you buy!
What the App does is simple; Once you purchase, upload the info of your purchase into the App (it's actually quite easy) and the Savvy App will then keep tabs on the retailer where you purchased to see if your item then goes on sale. If it does you will get a notice telling you it went on sale and at what price. Once notified, just go back to the store with your original receipt and get back the difference! Genius!
The 3 main services the Savvy App provides are:
1- My Buys. This monitors the purchases you've already made, using your shopping receipt, to ensure you
received the best price possible for that item. If a price drop occurs, the App will alert you.

2- Deal Maker. Savvy will monitor exact items you are interested in, at the price
you want to purchase it for. Simply pick your price and they will ping you as soon as your target
price is reached.

3- Watch List. This is for noncommittal Savvy shoppers wanting to keep an eye on a product they
might want to purchase. Using the App will 'watch' the item for you and let you know if there is a deal
available.

Retailers such as Home Depot, Sears, Victoria's Secret and MANY others are teaming up with the new Savvy payment protection App to offer shoppers the best prices before and after they make a purchase.
The App, which is available on iPhone and Android phones, insures that customers will pay the best price possible by navigating retailers’ price adjustment policies and sending notifications of any savings automatically.
Launched four weeks ago, the App already has over 20,000 downloads. An Android version has just become available and is heating up the Android Market.

Samantha Fein, vice president of marketing at Savvy.com, Los Gatos, CA, had this to say about their new App. The Savvy App fills the need that consumers have to be able to ensure they receive the best price possible for items they have already purchased."
Amazing.
This is an App that I definitely recommend.
Happy Holidays.
