Why Price Snitch?

Online shopping is great. It’s the way of the future. It can save you a lot of time, as you can shop 24/7 and you can find items online that you may not be able to find in stores at your local mall. However, if you’re looking for an item on sale from a particular store, then you may have to repeatedly return to their website to check its price.

Wouldn’t the whole online shopping experience be better if you could be told when the item you want is on sale?

If you’re like me, you are already registered with several online shopping websites in the hope that the store will email you when they have a sale. But then do you get frustrated when you receive an email saying something like “25% to 50% off All Toys” and in the fine print it says excludes Lego, Barbie etc etc? Those exclusions are so frustrating because if you had signed up with the online shopping site to buy Lego for your son or nephew, then that email is ultimately worthless to you.

Here’s another example of an email I’ve received in the past “Half price off women’s clothing” and in the fine print it says “selected styles” only. This may be even more frustrating than the above toy store email, because it means I have to go to the store’s website, search for the item I want and then manually check the price to see if it’s on sale.

That’s where PriceSnitch comes in. we’ve developed a one stop shop where you simply register with PriceSnitch, follow the simple three step process to get set-up and each time you find an item on ANY online shopping website you want to buy from just mark it, and we’ll send you an email when it goes on sale. Oh, and we do it for FREE. It’s then up to you whether you buy it or not – there’s no obligation.

 

How is PriceSnitch different to other price comparison websites?

Firstly, we don’t compare prices between stores. Those websites compare prices for a select range of goods from a finite number of stores. Those sites generally have niche markets too. Some will specialise in electronics, others will specialise in clothing or health and beauty. Those websites however only compare between certain stores, usually where they have an affiliation and receive a share in the profits.

PriceSnitch will alert you of a drop in price of any product that is available on any online store.

You tell us what item you want to buy from any online shopping store and we’ll let you know when the price has dropped. It’s as simple as that.

 

What can you shop with using PriceSnitch?

Anything! But here are some ideas:

  • Toys – now here’s a biggie. If you’re like me, I have my children, their friends and several nieces and nephews to buy toys for at Christmas and for birthdays. When I’ve selected the toys I want to buy for them, I just wait for those items to go on sale and buy it.

 

  • Baby – be alerted to deals on cots, car seats, baby clothing, baby linen.

 

  • Electronics – looking for a new phone, TV, laptop, tablet

 

  • Clothing and shoes – kids, women’s, men’s

 

  • Homewares – towels, bedding, dining ware,

 

  • Furniture – beds, sofas, dining tables and chairs.

 

  • Tools and hardware – lawnmowers, toolboxes, ladders, drills

 

  • Home renovation – paint, brushes, gardening tools
