I love my apps! I generally don't keep games (I have a couple for my 3 year old) on my phone, because I don't like to waste that precious space on apps that aren't making me money. Here are 5 that I have on my phone. I'm not sure if they work in other countries, as I'm in the US. Receipt Hog This one you can scan your receipts and are awarded "coins" for each receipt. There is a limit of 100 coins per week that you can earn and 1000 coins = $5. Walmart Savings Catcher This one is included in the Walmart app and easy to use. Just scan your receipt and Walmart will price match anything you have bought to stores in your area. The money can be loaded on a gift card or loaded to an American Express Bluebird card. Shopkick This app awards points for walking into certain stores, as well as scanning specific items. 500 points = $2 in gift cards that you can use at Target, Walmart, Starbucks, etc. Mobee This is a really cool app that pays your to do short evaluations, mystery shopping style, at certain stores like Staples, Walmart, Target, and Best Buy. You can redeem points for gift cards or Paypal. Swagbucks The Swagbucks app allows your to earn points and enter codes on your phone. You can also download apps for Swagbucks.

I have heard of a few of these. There is one more I have heard of - I think called Parabus? Or something similar that does rebates. I have an appright now that pays a little bit - a couple bucks a month - called Slidejoy. have you heard of that one?

I could only find Parabus for iOS, but that's pretty cool. I have an Android.

@cpefley Good that you made it clear in the first paragraph itself! You guys are fortunate enough to have such apps which pay your for shopping. In India, this thing has got some time to mature, so till then, I will just collecting different reviews from different shares!
