MarketWatch has posted an article “PriceSpider.com Helps Consumers This Holiday Season.” It is a report that PriceSpider.com which is backed by Neudesic has been featured as a valuable tool for shoppers.
By all accounts PriceSpider.com can truly save people money.
Pricespider.com has extremely active search engines that continuously search for the best deals that are going on. Further, you can share information with family and friends.
PriceSpider.com helps a shopper find a lot of prices for a large shopping spree or will help find that one special present at the lowest possible price.
The beauty of the technology is that you are capable of monitoring a large number of products at once.
PriceSpider.com allows consumers the chance to get updates via e-mail anytime a price changes on a specific product or specific products.
Additionally, you are able to get a six-month history of any product’s pricing.
I visited PriceSpider.com and have posted the link at the end of this article. It is amazing.
The information there tells you when deals are posted and also, you can find out how they compare on another site; even on a comparative site like Amazon. For example you can find out the time posted of a particular product; you can find out what the going price has been; you can find out when the change occurred; you can find out what the price is of the nearest offering and the going retail price.
Perhaps it seems this is a year when a service like this isn’t necessary because retailers will reduce prices because of the economy. I don’t think so.
While the press has been trumpeting dismal news that is not what I am experiencing.
Our local paper’s headlines on November 29th, 2008 exclaimed of Black Friday shopping “Mall Mania.” Further, I went shopping for an hour and came home because the stores were so crowded. It seems that PriceSpider.com is still what we need.
It seems so long ago that you simply went downtown to department stores to get gifts. I remember riding escalators up six floors and seeing Santa. People would be scurrying along sidewalks often in paths where there had been recent snow.
There were always moving figures in the store windows.
In those days we didn’t have the ability to monitor prices minute-by-minute.
PriceSpider.com is a great service especially this time of year. While there certainly isn’t the aura of past Christmas shopping, you can definitely get more for your money.
