Hi Sara,
I use Digit-Eyes it's an app on the iPhone or other idevices. The cost of
the app is 19.99. It's worth the cost. This is what there website says: What
is Digit-Eyes? Digit-Eyes is a unique iPhone app that enables people who are
visually-impaired or who have problems reading to identify items using their
iPhone, iPod or iPad. Digit-Eyes reads manufacturer's UPC and EAN code and
tells you the product name -- and often the full description, usage
instructions and ingredients -- in 10 languages. Using Digit-Eyes,
inexpensive off-the-shelf office supplies and a standard inkjet or laser
printer, you'll be able to record audio labels or make text labels that are
read aloud by your phone.
You can also buy there washable labels to use on Clothes or other items
without a barcode. The best part is that if you do scan something and it
does not come up someone can record for you what it is and you can send them
an email asking them to add it in. I like that you can print your own labels
and not have to pay for more like you would with the penfriend and if you
buy there's you can wash the labels I think is cool. Here is the website.

Good luck.
