Retail Me Not



We never head to the register without loading up RetailMeNot's app. Punch in the store where you're shopping and the app will come up with a list of in-store and online discounts you can use. You can redeem in-store coupons right from your phone, save and share coupons with others, and get deal and expiration alerts so you never miss a sale. If you want, the app will also alert you whenever you are in the vicinity of a good deal.


Price: Free


Available on Apple and Android devices [5]


I have looked at different apps two of which are apps to help students and the other two for discounts and places to eat as I felt they were a good way to compare the two and they both show how much you can fit into an app with a simple and workable design.

Here I have looked at 4 different websites and looked at how they are built. I have looked at these websites to see how navigation and how complex they are. I've looked at two different college website a website to purchase things off of to use as a comparison of what is needed  on a site like hat and what isn't needed on a college/uni page and the last a university page. I  like the navigation of image 2 and 4. I  feel image 1 is a bit to busy with to much images appearing at once.  I also like the layout of image 3 as it is simple and clear.
