Rather Be Shopping with Mobile?

Online coupon site Rather Be Shopping has launched an iOS app, in time for the approaching 'Black Friday' sales frenzy in the US.

The app enables users to search a store for coupons and then display the coupon on their iPhone to be scanned directly by the cashier upon checkout. Consumers will have the option to search by category and store name, and will also be able to find coupons for restaurants in addition to retail stores.

“With Black Friday approaching, we couldn’t be more excited with the timing of our mobile app launch,” said Kyle James, Owner and President of Rather Be Shopping. “Now, whether you’re at the mall or surfing the Internet, you’ll be able to find the latest bargains and save your family hundreds of dollars during the holiday season.”  

An Android version of the app is expected in 2013.
