The Best Price

admin — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 10:15:09 +0000

TheBestPrice is the ultimate solution to save money and compare prices in real-time, while shopping !

Whether or not you use price comparison services, you’ve probably noticed that the same product is found at very different prices according to online dealers. Now always buy at the best price and do not miss the bargains!

Discreet but watchful

Don’t change your habits. TheBestPrice works with 300+ online retailers and will only notify you when a cheaper price is found for the product you’re currently seeing. Get disturbed only when you’re about to lose money !

Automatic and real time price comparison

TheBestPrice uses a browser icon (a shopping cart icon next to your address bar) to indicate when a better price has been found, or if you have found the best price. Just by looking at TheBestPrice icon you will know if you’re making the right decision !

Save time and money

If TheBestPrice indicates cheaper prices (green color) , a single click on the icon will display the full list of online retailers selling the same product and their corresponding prices. Click on your preferred merchant or offer, it will immediately lead you to the right destination.

Useful in all circumstances

For some reason TheBestPrice may not detect the product you’re currently watching. Never mind, you can still use the embedded price search engine : click on TheBestPrice icon and enter the product keywords. Never leave the page you’re on again !

You can also highlight a page text selection and click on TheBestPrice icon : it will automatically search corresponding products in our database.

Summary of TheBestPrice browser icon color codes :

GREEN badge : the same product is cheaper somewhere else

BLUE badge : the price is equivalent on other retailers

ORANGE badge : the price is higher on other retailers

Shop smarter and let your browser do the job for you !

TheBestPrice is a breakthrough in shopping tools. We’re working hard on it by adding new features and merchants every day. Don’t hesitate to send us your comments and suggestions, help us to never lose a deal again !

Important : TheBestPrice currently works with US, UK and French main retailers. We will add more countries very soon !
