Has anyone found an iPod App that works like a price book. Especially for range of prices. (Even though you once got potatoes for 10 cents a pound, 40 cents is still a good deal?) I am in California and the prices are always changing. An app called UnitPrice is the only one that I’ve found that is close but still I would like it to a bit more than just record prices. Switching between ounces and pounds would be good too to compare club stores to the local market.
