WHAT WE ASSUME YOU KNOW BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD:
We assume that you know what penny items are.
We assume you know what store this app is for.
We assume that you know that UPC codes are very important and critical to finding the correct penny items. (you shouldn't penny shop based off only images).
WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THE STORES YOU VISIT WILL HAVE PENNY ITEMS.
THIS APP IS NOT A PRICE SCANNER, it's a Penny Scanner.
***The Penny Scanner's performance is based on the frame rate of your camera on your device. (Which means older devices such as an iPhone 4S and older model iPods/iPads will scan slower using the Penny Scanner than new devices that have considerably better cameras.)

I Want My $3 Back
This app in my opinion is a scam. They charge you for an app that is not advanced. Before you buy the app it has pictures that show you what the app looks like. It’s not like that… don’t fall for it. Lots of blurry pictures. The beginners video makes the screen go black and you can’t see it at all. The haul photos have blurry pictures like I said and some are clear but there are no comments or descriptions like in the app preview. You can get lost. False advertisement for sure and it’s slow. Lastly if you want to contact them you are directed to Facebook where you will see a message that says page can not be found. Very upset….
