A new iPhone app, Yowza, developed by Heroes Matt Parkman character Greg Grunberg and powered by Sysco’s relationship with 400,000 retail customers will make saving money a lot easier and a lot less cluttered.
Rather than fooling with a stack of coupons at checkout, those with an iPhone (or iTouch) simply show a digital coupon and the savings is automatically deducted from the purchase price.
Retailers that have already signed with Yowza!! include Sears, McDonald’s, Finish Line, ESPN Zone, The Container Store, Islands Restaurant, Sports Authority, Rubio’s Fresh Mexican Grill, Pier 1 Imports, REI, Saks Fifth Avenue, Regency Shopping Centers, California Pizza Kitchen, American Golf Corporation, Cavallo Point Lodge, Marmalade Café, Traditional Jewelers, American Car Movers, Aveda Salon/Spa, Inner You Pilates, JRK Hotel Group, Cheeseburger Restaurants, Kiehl’s, Midway Car Rental, Santana Row Shopping Center, Seaton, Jill Roberts and many others.
Yet another blow to the Sunday newspaper.
