All you need to do is scan a barcode or type in the name of an item and you’ll find out, if the offer in front of you is worth taking.
Check Online
If you don’t have a smart phone, do a little research online, while heading out for shopping. Visit some online stores and compare prices of your desired product. Also you can keep a print copy of the best price product page, so that you can show it to the shopkeeper, as a proof that the product you want is cheaper online and ultimately to get some bargain.
Discount Vouchers
