SnipSnap is a handy coupon app for mobile devices that will make sure you're always able to snag a deal on the go. The premise of the deal-finding app is that your phone's camera becomes a replacement for scissors, making it so that you can snap photos and SnipSnap will automatically convert text, images and barcodes into mobile-friendly offers that can be redeemed on-screen.
Instead of carrying around piles of coupons, this app makes it easy to load clippings into a phone and to save, all you have to do is pull up a coupon and show it to the cashier when it's time to ring up your purchases. Plus, once coupons have been mobile-optimized, you can take advantage of expiration date alerts to make sure that those coupons don't go to waste.
