RetailMeNot is a deal site that enables you to find coupons and discounts at tens of thousands of nationwide stores. Whether you're looking for deals on clothes, accessories, furniture or food, its slogan is "Save when you want, where you want," and its mobile app delivers it all.

You can search by specific store, popular items, or just by category, and then the results will be sorted by online and in-store. In-store coupons can be used by showing your screen to the cashier so he or she can scan the bar code. Coupons can be made available for use later by saving them with a one-tap button. Additionally, you can share any good deals you find with friends via the usual social-media outlets like Twitter, Facebook, Google+, or even e-mail.

The app has a built-in browser that makes using online coupons a snap. No more finding a deal, navigating to the Web site, finding the code, and then entering it manually. Just tap on Use Coupon when looking at a deal and the Web site for that company will load. Then, when you get to the text box where you enter a coupon, just touch the coupon code image at the top of the screen to paste it. It's really that easy. The only thing missing is the pinch-to-zoom ability on Web sites you load, as mentioned on Android Police.

One of the best features offered by the app (aside from saving money) is that there are no fees or signup process. This means you can download a copy of the app and start using it now without any other setup. Sound good? Check it out and leave your thoughts in the comments.
