WEWS
Click on the link above to watch the video that I filmed with WEWS ABC channel 5 with Jenn Strathman about barcode applications that find the best deal at online and brick and mortar stores when you scan the barcode. Great feature to use to save time and money!
How it works is easy. Just get the free app and then scan a barcode. For instance, I scanned a Monoploy game and it gave me the prices at a variety of stores. The best prices it showed was $10 at Wal-Mart and $10.09 at Target.
Now I got a kick out of this. The story aired on Tuesday, December 14th. That’s not what I got a kick out of. It was that the story just before mine was about someone finding something in their toilet! And that something was a squirrel! Anyone that knows me knows that I write about squirrels and I have a childish fascination about all things that emanate from posteriors. The stars lined up for this one. Good thing I Tivo’d the whole hour of the show. I plan to watch the segment about the squirrel jumping out of the toilet more times than necessary.
