Shoppers Advantage Ranks Top Holiday Gifts of Week

Posted on: Wednesday, 17 December 2008, 04:20 CST

NORWALK, Conn., Dec. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Santa's helpers at Shoppers Advantage -- a leading national online discount shopping service -- are at it again, busily making their list and checking it twice for the weekly Elf Alert, a ranking of the hottest gifts of the holiday season. Tops on this week's list: the iPod Nano, which knocks off the Wii Fit.

In light of the economy, more cash-strapped consumers are comparison shopping and deal hunting, searching online to find the lowest prices on hot ticket items. With more consumers aggressively seeking low prices, the popularity of online shopping is rising. Shoppers Advantage is poised to see its orders rise this year, by providing low prices on hot electronics, housewares, appliances, toys, and everyday items.

To help track the hottest gifts -- and best deals -- this season, Shoppers Advantage has created the 2008 Elf Alert, a weekly ranking of the hottest gifts in the land.

Shoppers Advantage offers online shopping, which means significant savings for consumers. The company's special partnerships with manufacturers allow club members to save 10-50 percent off manufacturers' list prices. Members also receive 3.5 percent cash back on their purchases, just for shopping online, as well as a 60-day low price guarantee which offers them a 200 percent refund of the purchase price difference if they are able to find an item elsewhere for less.

Consumers can also give the gift of savings to their friends and family by giving a membership to Shoppers Advantage or other membership clubs such as www.greatfunonline.com or www.travelersadvantage.com where they can save on entertainment and travel.
