Ugenie: frugal shopping

by Penny Saved on November 22, 2006

This one’s for all you super uber frugal people out there.  You and anyone else who wants to save a little money.  Ugenie is your next shopping site.

You’ve never seen a shopping site like it.  They specialize in bundling items together from different merchants to find your best price.  Currently, they search 35 merchants.  Consider that if you’re looking for a bundle of 2 items, that’s 35^2 different ways they could be bundled.  That’s 1225 different prices.

Then they pick the one that’s lowest, taking into account for taxes,shipping, and coupons(that they find) and gives you the best bundle.

The company just received $5 million in funding earlier this month and is looking like it’s going to be around for a while.  The founders are all deeply experienced with sites like Amazon, Yahoo, and A9.  Great resumes for a suggestive shopping site.

Did I mention that you can import your Amazon wish list?  Yep.  Great idea and a great site.
