Are you scrambling to finish (or start) your holiday shopping? Don’t worry! These apps can help you select, buy and save money on perfect gifts for your family and friends.

If you’re stumped about what to get your adolescent nephew, for example, El Gifto can make your life easier. The free app suggests presents based on age, gender, interests, and yes, even the recipient’s ego. It lets you set price limits too so you don’t accidentally fall in love with an $800 purse you never knew you needed.

In the era of huge holiday sales Christmas starts earlier every year. With Thanksgiving this Thursday, retailers are gearing up for the now infamous Black Friday Sale, the busiest shopping day of the year.
