Comparing prices with ShopSavvy

You may have heard me allready ranting on about this new great Android application called ShopSavvy, it’s developed by a Texas based company called Big in Japan, inc

Check out the video below.

The video below is an advert for the G1 and features the shop savvy application.

The below video shows you how to download Shopsavvy (Formally goCart)

Here is an introduction to the application:

Check out the application, in my opinion its one of the best apps on the t-mobile G1 right now.

Reading an article on Gadget Tell about how huge Shopsavvy could potentially be they say ”

The Big in Japan guys want to build partnerships with retailers.  Here is the scenario they imagine.  You go into a brick and mortar store and see an item.  You use ShopSavvy and find out you could get a better price elsewhere.

The retailer/partner who works with Big in Japan would offer a price match or lower price and send that info to your Android phone.  When you go up to the register, just swipe the barcode from your phone.

I’ve got to say, that is a very cool scenario.  I’m sure I am not the only one who would love to dispense with delayed gratification and be able to pick up an item in a store at a competitive price.

In case the price-matching plan does not pan out, Big in Japan is also looking to bring one-click shopping to your pocket.  These sound like great ideas and I am excited to see what they do next”

Amazing eh?
