Goby (area events)
KidMealDeal (this one is a bit limited)
Cheap Gas
Flixster (area movies)

WootWatch (if you are a Woot! -er)
USPS Mobile (locates nearby POs)
Shazam free (for when you want to know 'what song is that?' playing on the radio)
IMDB (for when you want to know 'what else has this celeb been in?' LOL)
YouTube

I also have all the area news apps -- CBS11, Dallas News, WFAA, etc

For fun:

Words with Friends
Sporcle
Angry Birds (totally worth the dollar!)
Tap Sudoku
NYT Crosswords (only the archives are free but there are still lots to play)

Then I have a bunch for the kids.

Enjoy! :)

I don't have an iPhone, it's an Android. But I recently got an app called Grocery iQ. Just looked it up and it's available for the iPhone as well. I haven't gotten into using it a whole lot yet, but it's a very detailed grocery list app. You can scan bar codes & it will add the item to your list. It puts items in categories (i.e. beverages, dairy, etc.), and you can add items to lists for specific stores (and add in the price, aisle it's on, etc.).

Haven't had time to use it much & setup stuff, but seems it would be helpful once it's setup!

Was about to also suggest Google Shopper, but looks like they don't offer it for the iPhone. Maybe later?? lol It scans book, CD, & DVD covers as well as barcodes to look up info.

And of course, games :)

Peekaboo Barn for my 17 month old. It's a "toy" I always have on hand. And I love GroceryIQ. You can scan the barcode on your lotion (or any product) and it puts it in your grocery list. I scan everything when we run out before I throw the pac away so I don't forget to buy more.

Red Laser (it scans bar codes of any product and tells you where you can buy it the cheapest - super handy for larger purchases!), Mixologist (a bartender app, LOL), and Urban Spoon (finds good restaurants close to your current location).

As a busy mom and busness owner, I find I need apps to keep me organized (and keep my brain "plugged in!!") LOL! the two apps I can't live without are ToDo and Grocery Gadget. ToDo is a very advanced to do list with all the uber cool tweaks I love- like making categories, settng alerts, moving and rescheduling tasks, and more. Grocery Gadget is AWESOME for the budget conscious shopper in the home. You can completely customize this app: add prices and pictures to each item, shop by store, category, etc, It let's you see how much money is in your list before you even get to the store!
These two apps are such time and life savers that they are my top 2. For relaxing and music, I love Pandora!!
