theFind.com is Gone - A Sad Day for Comparison Shoppers

Finding the best prices for a specific item online can be a bit of a challenge. If you do a simple Google search for the product the most popular sites pop up first and more affordable sellers are easily hidden. In the past I used www.thefind.com's superior sorting feature to find the best prices but when I tried to use it today I learned that it is now going to be absorbed into Facebook's Advertising department. Oi vey! I am so irritated.

In the past similar sites like Google Shopping just haven't worked as well for me. When I'm looking for something that rarely goes on sale I usually look up the item's price on multiple search engines. 7 times out of 10 I am able to find a cheaper source for that item on theFind. Google shopping seems to leave out quite a few vendors. I've done searches in which Google Shopping finds about 30 vendors while theFind found over 100 vendors.

Unfortunately this is not an April Fool's joke because apparently the site went offline on 03/13/2015 according to their Twitter page. I hope that something comparable pops up soon. I am really going to miss this shopping tool!

***Happy Spring shopping***
