****** UPDATE ****** 12th Jan 2003 - Well my op is only just over a couple of weeks old and guess what? Shopsmart.com is no more!! That's it, gone, finito. There's a sign on the site thanking everyone for their past support and then suggesting they use Kelkoo.co.uk instead! I'm gutted, as I used to love this site. However, I have used Kelkoo before and have no problems going back in Shopsmarts absence. Shopsmart is dead - Long live Kelkoo! ****** UPDATE OVER ****** Shopsmart.com When I first saw this site about three years back, I honestly thought that it would soon be one of the most visited ... more

I’ve discovered another price comparison chart (well, to be honest, I read about it in a magazine and felt I had to take a look!). A few weeks ago I wrote an opinion about kelkoo.com, and recommended it if you wanted to compare prices online before you buy. There is a very similar site at uk.shopsmart.com. Both sites work in a similar way – and are FREE to use. You don’t even need to register with them to gain access. You simply select the category of product you are interested in, and search for the item. After a few moments you will be provided with a list of suppliers for ... more

Sleeping around is bad. Shopping around is good. Shopsmart exploits the latter of those two statements, and allows you to compare prices for a product in several of the largest online retailers, which is great. Though it isn't without its problems. Shopsmart's interface is pretty easy – you type a title, artist/author or similar into the search box and select the relative product type, and the Shopsmart engine provides all the matches to your search. Once you've found the item you're after, you click on "Compare Prices" and you see what the item costs at various e-tailers, including the ... more

This is a fairly useful site. The idea behind it is simple but good enough. There are dozens of internet shopping sites and even though the internet is supposed to be much faster than trudging around in rainy, busy streets it can still take too long to track down what you want to buy and find it at a reasonable price. Shopsmart (www.shopsmart.com) urges you to shop smarter, not harder. It presents two methods of searching for your ideal Christmas (or any other) gift to you. o) By keyword search, this is the search engine way of doing things. Type in something suitable, for example, the title ... more

This is an excellent shopping portal, with just a few clicks of your mouse you are on your way to finding what you want, when you want it and with 'Shopsmart's' price search , at the cheapest prices possible! I have used this one many times and have recommended it to many people. You wouldn't believe some of the price differences out there for the exact same product, that's where the beauty of 'shopsmart' comes in, taking the headache of searching and saving you, sometimes, £20 or more depending on the product you are after. Don't believe me? Then try it for yourself!! ... more
