Tip For Better Online Shopping
There’s a new cost-comparison shopping site out there, like no other shopping search site on the web. It’s called Ugenie and it’s true to its insigne: “unlock hidden savings”. It’s been given top rating by new-web-company-tracker Techcrunch. Here are a few reasons why:
1. Bundled-up Bargains – The site’s engine finds the cheapest way to buy the exact items you want from one or more merchant sites. Here’s how it works: The site considers how much each item would cost, bought individually or in combination with your other items, at 35 different online market places. If you are searching 35 vendors for 3 items, then that’s 42,875 permutations. The service can handle bundles of up to 15 items. It ranks vendors based on the bottom-line price (including shipping, taxes, and any coupons that can be found online). Plus, if you are likely to save more money by buying another item the site thinks you will like, it will recommend a bundle with those items included.
2. The Bundle of the Day – Every day, the site displays the most popular deal of the day. When I checked the site, the bundle included a ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Wall Calendar, CD, and Season 2 DVD for US$46.72. That’s 53% off the $101.15 list price.
3. No Preferred Placements – The site doesn’t take money from merchants for preferred placements, which means that its prime concern is just finding the cheapest price out there on the items you want.
