Earlier, we wrote about shopkick , a company with a different take on the whole check-in revolution as it relates to retail. But it's one thing to read about it, it's another to see it. That's exactly why shopkick invited several members of the press to a Best Buy in San Francisco this morning to see the app in action. As you can see in the full 15-minute walk-through video below, the execution is impressive. The minute you enter a Best Buy location, your phone recognizes it and you get points and a message that there are deals available at this location. You can also use it to scan items and get more points and other potential deals.
