InstantCouponsHere.com announces setbacks shoppers may face while using online grocery coupons

San Antonio, TX (PRWEB) April 19, 2012

Users of online grocery coupons have more to think about than the weekly deals and sales as InstantCouponsHere.com announces the move of some grocery stores to end their double coupons policy. According to Brad Tuttle from Time.com Ralphs and Kroger recently changed their couponing policies as a strategy to lessen the amount of money being taken away from their cash registers by savvy shoppers who pay next to nothing all thanks to the use of online grocery coupons.

The move by the popular southern California supermarket is met by a lot of outrage from shoppers who rely on online grocery coupons to stretch their budget. As of April 1, Ralphs no longer accepts double manufacturer coupons. To take it even further, the rewards program on gas is only usable in select gas stations and exclusive to customers with a Ralphs Plus Visa. These tough policy on online grocery coupons changes come mere months after the Texas branch of Kroger also ended their double coupon offers.

Many customers reacted violently to this move and express bitter disappointment. According to them, they are shopping at these establishments because of the money savings that they are getting but now that these stiffer guidelines for online grocery coupons are being imposed, they will proceed to shop at other grocery stores.

Aileen, 57, says, “Because Ralphs kicked the doubling of online grocery coupons, I’m also kicking them out. What they don’t realize is people are going to their stores for the double deals. I’m sure they will lose a lot of loyal customers, not just me.”

The founder of ConsumerWorld.org, Edgar Dworsky verbalizes the bigger fear of shoppers who use online grocery coupons, ““The worry is that other supermarket chains around the country will follow Ralphs’ and Kroger’s lead, since this is such a copycat industry. With the economy so tight, many shoppers count on the extra savings that double coupons provide to help stretch their food budget.”

This is especially true for shoppers who have been hit the hardest by the recent downturns in the economy. People who have lost their jobs or are forced to take shorter hours and the only way for these people to cope is through adopting money savvy strategies like the use of online grocery coupons for their shopping. There is no way they can chase the rising prices of food and other basic commodities because the rate of salaries remain static and grocery stores adopting firmer rules for online grocery coupons will affect them harshly.

In the same way, it is notable how other grocery stores are not cutting their double deals but are enforcing confusing rules and policies with their online grocery coupons. There are stores who limit the number of online grocery coupons being accepted to only four per transaction and others put caps on the number of times a person can purchase a single item with online grocery coupons in a day.

Decline of Comparison Shopping Engines

Jasmeet Sawhney asked:




Comparison shopping or ability to compare prices was (and to a large extent continues to be) one of the greatest innovations since the advent of internet shopping. Why? Because it put shoppers in control of the single most important shopping insight – ability to find the best price. So, understandably, comparison shopping engines (CSEs) were once a rage. But, they are constantly losing their clout with advent of new technologies and pressure from players like Google and Amazon. Here are some of the factors that are taking away CSE traffic:

Search engines are investing on their own shopping platforms – Google and Bing continue to evolve their own product search platforms. In addition to standard product information, they are enriching product pages with content like product reviews, videos and related products. There is a clear conflict of interest when it comes to product related search results. And, guess who wins? It is definitely not CSEs.

Amazon marketplace – This may come in as a surprise since we are talking about comparison shopping. But, Amazon Product Ads drives more than 4% of CSE traffic and it is growing at a good pace. For most categories, traffic from Amazon is very high quality with high conversion rates.

Social Media and Mobile – All of us know how social and mobile technologies are changing our lives. They impact all aspects of digital landscape and online shopping is no different. This is just the beginning – traffic from social and mobile platforms will explode in the next 5 years.

Ability to comparison shop on online retail sites – This is slowly becoming the new hygiene factor for online retail sites. Most of the big retailers already offer this feature. But, I highly doubt that shoppers can be fooled for too long. It is not difficult to discover that almost all prices from competitor sites are either higher or within 98% of the price listed on the site offering this feature.

It is clear that comparison shopping engines are under a lot of pressure trying to keep their market share. But, there are some bright spots as well. The second generation CSEs are fairing much better and continue to grow at the expense of their older counterparts. In the next post, we’ll discuss how CSEs have evolved and what newer entrants are doing to grow their traffic.

Price Comparison Sites Help You Find the Cheapest Deal

Dominik Macinger asked:




When consumers buy items off the market, your instinct will quickly tell you to compare prices. Indeed, this is part of the human nature to compare everything but this behavior serves you well when buying items on a limited budget. Conducting a detailed research of the products available to choose from is therefore an advantageous trait that anyone can have during shopping.

Even if it meant having to visit one shop after another, consumers would be willing to go through such hassle for adequate price comparison. This is believed to be the most efficient way to get a general consensus of the market price and find ones that offer highest affordability without sacrificing product quality.

But with the advent of the internet and price comparison websites, doing your research for various products you intend to buy can now be conveniently done right at the comfort of your own home. Thus, even when you still have your sleeping clothes on, you can conveniently shop for the items you want since all you need is your computer and an internet connection.

Even when it is convenient to shop from one product website to another, online comparison sites take that benefit to a new height by gathering all those information you need in one place. Hence, it saves you more time in comparing prices to get the cheapest deal since you have them all in a single website. It therefore suits modern shoppers and those who are budget-conscious to use these price comparison tools to identify where the best rates are. In addition, you no longer have to physically visit one shop to another just to survey those information to make your life that much easier.

Indeed, online shops aren’t the only ones that offer price comparison opportunities. There are shopping comparison sites that are specifically intended for this sole purpose. When you log into the site, you can access basic information about the product you want such as list of manufacturers, prices, product category, existing discounts, related products, among others. These services applies for all types of products that are available online. In some cases, these sites can even provide access to software and other tools to further enhance your ability to make efficient comparison.

If you are interested to find out how rates can vary and to gain a deeper understanding of the benefits of price comparison, it is due to the stiff level of competition between merchants and retailers. Hence, price range for certain products on the market can fluctuate from time to time. In some cases, discounts are made available due to marketing policies. And unless you research about these information, you can never unlock your ability to find cheap deals.

It is also for this same reason why several manufacturing companies resist price comparison sites since the latter points out the merits of the product and company, while at the same time raising into the buyer’s attention the shortcomings of the product. However, consumers benefit the most from these services as they can generate an honest assessment of the product to help out their buying decision.
