Hello, shoppers! This week’s Shopping Simplified is about the Shopkick app: a must-have for Android and iPhone owners.
This app allows you to find exclusive, must-have deals at great stores, like Macy’s, Crate and Barrel, Target and more. Select your fav stores and Shopkick will keep you posted on everything going on there.
But here’s the kicker (pun intended…). If you visit any of the app’s partner stores, even if you just check-in without buying anything, you earn great savings, ranging from cool gift cards to free movie tickets and more.
Seriously, all you have to do is walk in to any one of the stores (a few more examples? Sports Authority, Wet Seal, Best Buy), wait a few seconds with the app open, and then leave with new rewards!
The points you collect are displayed in “kicks.” The more kicks you have, the more rewards. You can unlock iTunes gift cards, restaurant vouchers, gift cards to your fav stores and tons more.
It’s super easy to earn kicks and reap the benefits!
Happy Shopping!
