When December 26th rolls around, and the items we purchased full-price just days before drop to staggeringly low prices, we wonder why we even bothered shopping before the holidays. Post-holiday sales are a glorious thing... and yes, they're a little frustrating, too. But if you prepared ahead of time with Hukkster's new in-store app, you could be in for a real treat.

Hukkster has previously enabled users to tag items on stores' websites and receive email notifications when the items go on sale. The new version of the app, however, makes things enticingly simple for those who prefer in-store shopping. All you have to do is enter the style code of that pricy cashmere sweater you're dying for, and Hukkster will notify you the very moment it goes on sale. Could smart shopping be any easier?
