Review: Pebble.com

I'm a certifiable SHOPAHOLIC. seriously. It's so bad that at one point Z threatened to take my debit card to work with him. (and all I could think was... "ok that leaves me the checkbook, extra checkbooks, and ID to withdraw money so how does that stop me :) " heehee)

I still carry a deep LOVE for shopping but have gotten way more thrifty since having Caden. I'm addicted to coupons and ALWAYS try to find the best deal. Which is where Pebble.com comes in.

Pebble.com is "a search-based online shopping comparison site that has a Q&A forum integrated in each product results page so users can ask other users questions about a particular product and get an answer right away. Most consumers make purchase decisions without getting all the information they need, which is a huge detriment in our current economy. But with Pebble.com users can get all the information they need to buy products and shop for the lowest prices online."
Pebble.com is awesome! I wanted to test it out... So i decided to search for our last big purchase, a nice umbrella stroller! We bought the Joovy Kooper in Appletree at Babies-R-Us at $199.99. I learned many things from my search. First of all, there is a variety of prices for the stroller, ranging from $50 cheaper than I purchased it for to $100 more expensive! I also found out that there is a rain cover and a travel case! So awesome, since lately we've been doing quite a bit of traveling! The search also gave me the information that it has a 5-point harness, can hold children 26-50 lbs, prices, and where to locate!

I also asked a question. When I purchased the stroller I didn't really think about it not having a snack tray. I asked Pebble.com if there is one available. It popped up with a message letting me know that my question will be reviewed shortly. I will let you know their response when I receive it. So far I have not been able to find a snack tray on my own.

All-in-all I think that Pebble.com is a great site! I will definitely be checking it for prices BEFORE I make purchases from now on!

(p.s. And yes, I love this stroller also...)

I leave you with a question.
