LOS ANGELES, Jan. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- PriceGrabber®, a part of Experian®, is making it easier and more convenient for consumers to find local deals in their area with DealGrabber, a new mobile application specifically dedicated to the local deals category, deals.pricegrabber.com. DealGrabber is available free of charge in the Apple® iTunes® store and is an excellent way for consumers to browse thousands of deals in their area from a variety of local deal Websites, including Groupon®, LivingSocial®, Restaurant.com®, Eversave®, Gilt City(TM) and many more. With more than 10,000 downloads already, the DealGrabber app has quickly become a go-to shopping app.
Instead of sorting through cluttered inboxes filled with daily deal emails, consumers are now able to efficiently sort through thousands of deals in one place. The app makes it easy to browse for deals using a map view, a list view or a hybrid of both. In addition, users can view detailed information like category, price, value, location and expiration date. Shoppers also can get their friends in on the fun and share their favorite deals on Facebook®.
"With the tremendous growth in the local daily deals marketplace, PriceGrabber saw the opportunity to save consumers time and money and offer local daily deals all in one mobile app," said Graham Jones, general manager of PriceGrabber. "PriceGrabber has been perfecting the process of aggregating the best price on millions of products from thousands of merchants for more than 10 years. When we entered the local daily deal space in June 2011, it was a natural progression for us. Developing a mobile app specifically for our local daily deals category brings the convenience of our local daily deals Website into the pocket of the consumer."
