A bit older, but still the best price comparison app around. If you're in a store, you can scan the barcode or take a picture of an item you are interested. Within seconds, you will find out if Amazon or one of its merchants offers the product for a better price. Retailers in 2011 complained that consumers were effectively using their stores as showrooms, and purchased competitor products from within their stores. While this is admittedly tacky, the method is not going away and ultimately brings down pricing for everyone. eBay also offers the Red Laser barcode scanner for iOS and Android for free, and there are several other independent competitors.
