Q. What are the tabs for at the top of
the page?
A. The
"Products/Stores" tab is the home page.
To get back to this page, just click on the "Products/Stores" tab. The
"Products/Stores" tab allows you to browse products by
either clicking on a category (or subcategory) or by using the search form
and drop
down menu at the top of the page. You can also search products
by store or catalog by clicking on the "
to Stores" link in the grey bar which takes you to an
alphabetical list of stores and catalogs and new search form. You can
browse products at a specific store or catalog by either clicking on the
store or catalog's image or name, or clicking on the # of products
listed under the merchant name.
You can switch from searching by
category (or subcategory) to search by store or catalog by clicking on
the "
to Stores" link, or switch from searching by store or catalog to
search by category (or subcategory) by clicking
on the "
to
Category" link, and vice versa. You will notice that when you are
searching by stores and catalogs that there is a listing under each
merchant of the # Products, #Categories, Store Info, #Coupons .
#Products are the number of items currently in the database. #Categories
are the number of categories of products sold by the store or catalog.
#Coupons are simply current
promotions (which are in addition to or supplemented by those found under the "Coupons"
tab below and or posted on twitter). Top selling items can be found of the stores under
Store Info for many of the merchants listed. There are literally several million products to
search for or browse so you should find what you are
looking for.
Window shoppers will love this part of the site.
You can sort the search results by Best
Match, Low to High, price High to Low price, Product Rating or Store
Rating (please see the User
Agreement regarding any Store Ratings appearing on this site). You can also change the appearance of the results to List View,
Grid View or Text View. Just look for the drop down menu and icons like
those shown below which are located at the top and right side of the
results page.
A. The "Amazon" tab allows you to browse, search
and buy products from Amazon. You can search for products using the
search box or use the menu on the right side to browse different product
categories. Amazon has competitive prices and shipping costs and is one
of our favorite places to shop.
A. The "Coupons" tab provides links to coupons and price drops at the
listed stores and catalogs. If you look through the coupons, you're sure
to find some big price drops and great values for your money which is
now more important than ever. In addition to the coupons and price drops
found under this tab, there are promotions under the "
to Store" section of the "Products/Stores" tab above.
You can also find current promotions posted on twitter. Just click on
the
twitter logo at the bottom of the page.
If you have an RSS reader, you can click on the
RSS logo
at the bottom of the page as well. If you don't have an RSS reader (or
one built into your browser), we've reposted the RSS from twitter on our
site: (click
here). (Now there are links near the top of the Coupons page
under the search bar to both Twitter updates and the second set of
coupons). Value oriented shoppers will want to check back for new offers
often because promotions change frequently and sometimes last from a few
hours to only a day or two or while supplies last.
A. The "Compare Prices" tab allows you to
search and compare prices among different stores and catalogs. This
saves time when you are don't feel like looking up the price at several
different stores and/or catalogs. The default search is
randomly generated when you click on this tab, but you can search for many other products and
compare prices too!
A. The "eBay" tab allows you to search eBay
for current auction items. The results page returns three sets of results in three
separate price ranges up to the maximum price that you establish. It will provide up to
10 results in each price range. Give it a try, I think you will find the
results
useful. The default search is "Beatles" with a maximum price of
$500. Clicking on a link here will open a new page in eBay featuring the
selected product.
A. The
"Shop Direct" tab provides tabbed categories of stores and catalogs
with direct links to many popular retailers. This is a way to quickly jump
to a retailer based on the types of products that it generally sells.
This is especially helpful if you already generally know which store or catalog
or category you are looking for. If not, it can provide some good ideas.
For example, there are about 30 shoe retailers located on the "Shoes"
category tab. Since these links take you directly to retailer's site, it
will have the most up to date information on available inventory and
active promotions.
A. The "Google" tab is a custom Google
search engine which searches across a select group of retail stores and
catalogs. You might consider this searching option if you can't find
what you are looking for. We've tried to
include as many stores and catalogs in this custom search index as possible.
