Top 7 iPhone Apps for Christmas Shopping

Best iPhone apps to save you money while shopping this Xmas

'Tis the season to be jolly, of course, not least after waking up on December 25th to discover an iPhone 4-shaped gift poised seductively under the tree with your name on it.

Contrary to popular belief, though, Apple's wireless wonders are neither assembled in Santa's Grotto, Lapland, nor shipped via carrier reindeer.

So, to aid overworked parents during the Christmas period, Qi presents the best shopping apps on iPhone.

No need to even leave the house, as this collection of the Top 7 iPhone shopping apps does all the heavy Xmas loading and saves you money in the process!

	eBay Mobile eBay Inc.
	There's so much available for sale on eBay nowadays, from imaginary friends to Lionel Messi's chest hair, one wonders what price Qi could attract at auction? Don't answer that. Freshly updated in time for Crimbo, eBay Mobile's valuation has soared, thanks to push notification alerts and a Reminders tab. Bid farewell to physical stores forever.

	Amazon Mobile AMZN Mobile LLC
	Both the Amazon Mobile app and its UK counterpart were the welcome beneficiaries of a barcode scanning facility in a recent update, bringing the online retail giant's offering in line with rival eBay's. 'Remembers' is the killer feature, though, allowing punters to snap items on the go for later viewing. Buy, buy!

	iBank IGG Software, LLC
	Instead of doling out free wonga via some secret iSlot - which Qi is almost certain you were hoping it did - IGG Software's app helps you monitor daily Xmas expenditure and stay on top of that all-important payee list. You know the one: Apple, Toys R Us, Hamleys, TomTom, British Airways, The Ivy. Hang on?!?

	RedLaser Occipital
	Described by its developer Occipital as 'impossibly accurate', RedLaser definitely caught the eye and wallet of one eBay Inc. (of imaginary friends fame!) earlier in the year. Search for and compare prices across hundreds of thousands of retailers using its state-of-the-art barcode recognition tech. Even without autofocus.

	So, you've exhausted every idea known to man, woman, and beast for Auntie Betty's stocking filler this time around, yet you need to stuff it somehow. Why not send her a token of your love wrapped in a dollar bill form, courtesy of PayPal? And while you're there, donate a few bucks to our favourite charity...marked Qi. Why, thank you.

	Tesco Finder Tesco.com R&D Team
	Measured by revenues, Tesco is the fourth-largest retailer on the planet, trailing only Wal-Mart, Carrefour, and Metro in the moolah-making stakes. And if you happen to live in the UK, there's one nearby. Guaranteed. The supermarket chain's iPhone app lets you check store inventory levels and product locations BEFORE leaving home. Every little helps.

	Gift List (Free Edition) Gennubi
	When shopping on iPhone for sister-in-laws, next door neighbours, dogs, and mistresses (oops), it's awfully easy to lose track of time, money, and...Where was I? Yes, Gennubi's Gift List eliminates this annual aggravation by ticking off purchases for individual recipients. No more awkward silences after Nanny opens up an Ann Summers winter collection by mistake. And faints.
