Okay, so one of the reasons that I started All-Abode.com was to help people save money.
Cooking – obviously, not eating out you are saving money
Cleaning – making your own products? much cheaper
Organizing – when you’re organized you save time. Time = money
Entertaining – why rent out a bar when you can have people at your place?
So, I was totally psyched when I was making a return for a client at The Container Store and one of the register sales people told me about Yowza. It’s a free app for the iPhone that gives you coupon codes for stores while you’re in them.
Really, it is a tricky thing to cut out coupons and have them with you. Sometimes I’ll run into a store and be peeved that I didn’t have my coupon with me. So this is a great service – provided more stores catch on.
You download the app for your iPhone or iTouch. (Apparently they are looking to do it for other phones and mobile devices, but aren’t there yet) Then you put in your gender and age and they tell you what deals are available to you within a 15 mile radius.
This is pretty great in general. In particular it’s awesome because you get 15% off anything in the store at The Container Store. I would like it if there were some more stores on there, but considering I was at The Container Store four times in two days last week, it’s a pretty good deal for someone like me. (If you are a personal organizer I highly recommend you download this app!) So if you need empty bottles for cleaning supplies, or just a little basket or something, you might as well get it 15% off.
So I wanted to spread the word about that. Check it out!
