In the book, The Secrets of An Intelligent Consumer, I write a lot about what supermarkets and mega markets sell. (Mainly foods but many other products as well) Many people think that all one has to do to save money is to go to a giant retailer or an advertised sale. Although many bargains can be found at giant retailers, they are not the least expensive prices on everything that you purchase in these mega stores. What they do have is a fantastic marketing strategy and many ingenious gimmicks that pull the wool over consumers’ eyes. The book reveals many of these gimmicks and ploys used in every market and promoted sale. Once you are in the know, they seem easy to spot. In addition to the book, The Intelligent Consumer Website will let member shoppers enter their observations and purchases into a database that every user can see. Members will be able to confer with those they that have the same shopping circles and buy the same products. You can utilize the permanent personal record keeping feature, so you know exactly what you purchased, when and where you purchased it, and what you paid for it. The database will automatically tell you where you can buy the items you want at the lowest price in your area. You can adjust how far away you want the database to retrieve the information. Incentives such as points will be given to members who participate. Reading the book will not be necessary to save money using the website, but reading the book will have you save the most money when using the site. Go to intelligentconsumersite and opt-in and we will let you know when the site is fully operational. Meanwhile read this great article to glimpse a little bit of info that may help you. The book will spell it all out for you. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-440800/Exposed-tricks-supermarkets-use-make-rip-offs-look-like-bargains.html
