5 favorite phone apps

Hey friends.  How is your home screen looking these days?  I have found myself with more apps than ever. I do a good amount of downloading and deleting but still have several screens worth.

1.  Since I had the baby, I wanted to be more accountable for eating and activity to drop the baby weight and like the free app, My Fitness Pal.  I wasn't one of the lucky ones whose weight just "melted right off" with breastfeeding so I am having to do it the old fashioned way.  Booooooo

2.  Another new fave is the free app INK that allows you to create custom greeting cards and mail them, all from your phone.  You can send as a postcard or greeting card with envelope and they have lots and lots of great, modern templates and they mail them for you.  

3.  Another good app is EBATES.  I am new to the app but my sister has been using for a while and gave me the tip.  You click on the site, find stores you shop at, activate the coupon, cash back, or rebate and shop away.  I have averaged $8-$15 each purchase and they send you a check.  I think it works but them splitting discounts with you.  I have used Neiman Marcus, Sephora, and Nike so far.

4.  This is a great idea but I am terrible at remembering to use it.  I have the Target 5% off card and you can save even more if you use the CartWheel app.  New deals come out on Sunday.  If I sit down and browse then, I am good.  If I am just dropping in for a shopping run, forget it.  I cannot seem to remember to use the app.

5.  This app was saved for last as my fave.  The Hangouts app is something I use with my nieces to text back and forth.  It lets you send pics, send stickers (emojis) and even works as a phone.  They have only called me once.  It was 4:15AM to tell me they missed the baby and asked me to send more pictures.......at 4:15 in the MORNING.  On a school night.  haha  They got their tablets taken away for a week but I couldn't stop laughing.  My sister couldn't believe it.  I feel so bad for telling on them because it was for such a sweet gesture.  We had to set boundaries of no calls from 10:00pm-8:00am.  

I also love the typical social media apps but everyone has those already.  Except my husband, Mr. Anti Social Media.  :)

Hope you're having a super week.  It's still raining raining raining here so we are left to just snuggle up inside.  I am not complaining.
