I like Shoplet. It allows me to access many stores.

I've been using Find Hidden Discounts to find discounts associated memberships and other daily deals. I can quickly determine if I can get discounts through my AAA membership, credit card, employer, professional association, driver’s license, and others without having to reference each individual benefits website. Now there's an app, so when I'm already out shopping I can find the savings information when I'm waiting to check out. In fact, thanks to the app, I have been able to combine discounts with my coupons for even more money off. There are two versions of the app. One app is free and comes with advertisements. The other is $0.99 and allows you to turn off the ads.
