The holidays are upon us again, and what do you need when you battle door-buster sales and crowded malls? How about an app that can scan any barcode or QR Code to help you find the very best prices, deals, and local prices?

Now you can with the ScanLife Rewards Sweepstakes which allows anyone with the Android or iOS app to win an iPad Mini with Retina! We know they are tough to find, and you probably have a better chance of winning one from us, than getting it from your weird uncle.

The only problem was that the technology in camera phones was no where near read to read them, so we put it on the "shelf." Fast forward to 2009, enter the auto-focus camera!!
