match. you don't have to guess if you are getting the best deal possible. what about shopping in a store , in person? we don't see that as often. >> i know, if you are in my favorite bay area store like target, walmart, or best buy. download the stores app. while shopping, use it to scan the barcode of the item you want to purchase on the shelf. it is almost always lower. and sometimes hundreds of dollars lower online. take a screen grab of that i pressing the volume and power button at the same time on ios and android devices. show that photo to the person checkout, and they will give you the lower online price. they said amount, call up the website where says, yes, they will.

also, price matching is a good one for those stores as well. >> reporter: that is what this is. this is price matching 2.0. very neat. we know headphones, smart phones, video games are popular for the holidays. what are the unique gadgets that you found this year? >> there are so many. i have hundreds of gadgets. i have gone hands-on with almost 100 in the last week alone. one that stands out due to the times we are living in is this. this teaches kids ages three and up, social and emotional learning skills. he touch the little foot and it guides children through breathing exercises. you inhale when the light gets brighter and exhale as it fades. it is a very relevant tool. i have a friend that has been using this with one of her little ones since we started to try it out together. it has worked some major wonders. another one i recommend is from the world largest prolific pc maker. this

is the idea pad duet, five in one tablet. it is very versatile, and it is solid for work or streaming. it also has 11 hour battery life. it starts in the $300 range. i typically say, don't bother with a laptop if it is under $400 or $500, but this is an exception. these guys are making headlines for the standout sales during the holidays. there is this a little tony box. this is a top-five trending toy that i really like because it is screen free. any time you get kids to use more of their imaginations, and a little less screen time, it is always a win. this is super new. you can use the other figures with it and the brand-new plushy's that came out two weeks ago. these are deals in the $70 range. >> that is cool. we have so many cool kids toys this year.
