First-of-its-kind Website Saves Consumers Significant Time and Money With a Free
Service That Finds the Lowest Price for Any Product at Stores Such as
Staples.com, Target.com and Borders.com
SAN DIEGO--(Business Wire)--
Extrabux.com, a cash back and coupon website, today announced the incorporation
of comparison shopping, making it the first, fully integrated online comparison
shopping engine (CSE). Taking the ease of online shopping to new heights,
Extrabux.com is the first CSE to combine coupons, cash back and comparison
shopping at one online destination. Through its free service, Extrabux.com finds
shoppers the lowest possible price on millions of products while also granting
cash back on everyday purchases at over 1,500 online stores, such as Petco.com
and Macys.com. 

Before Extrabux.com, getting to the lowest price online was often a
time-consuming, frustrating and inefficient experience as the discounts needed
to find the lowest price for a product were spread across multiple websites.
Extrabux.com solves this problem - and saves consumers significant time and
money - by aggregating these tools into one comparison shopping website that
incorporates discounts from online coupons and cash back to show the lowest
possible prices on millions of products from thousands of top online retailers. 

"Eighty-seven percent of consumers prefer to shop at retailers that offer a
discount or coupon - and this number continues to increase given the economy,"
said Noah Auerhahn, co-founder of Extrabux.com. "With so many people shopping
online, it is very competitive and retailers are vying to attract customers by
regularly issuing coupons and incentives. Extrabux.com takes the work out of
shopping online, tracking all of those discounts and rewarding consumers with
coupons and cash back at rates as high as 30 percent of the purchase price. With
Extrabux.com, the previously fragmented online shopping process is now
completely streamlined." 

According to eMarketer, in 2008, 144.2 million consumers spent $227.6 billion
dollars shopping online. In 2013, even with the current recession, 177.7 million
consumers are expected to spend $319.1 billion dollars shopping online. This
growth is driven by increased consumer confidence in online shopping,
improvements in security, and technological advances that improve the online
shopping experience. The tough economy is also driving more online shoppers to
compare prices and seek discounts. 

Extrabux.com currently works with over 60 percent of the top 2,000 online
retailers to offer consumers the best products at the best prices - along with
coupons and cash back on everyday purchases. By integrating discounts from
online coupons and cash back, Extrabux.com shows lower prices than other
comparison shopping websites on millions of products.

Extrabux.com for their online shopping needs find combined savings tools all at
one online destination - saving them significant time and money. Because
Extrabux.com shares its commission from each purchase, online shoppers receive
