Verdict

The winner is…Google Shopping.

Despite the aggressive Microsoft ad campaign and glaring lack of Amazon results, Google Shopping is still the best overall price comparison experience on the web. It appeals to both casual and power users and is very flexible and easy-to-use.  With any price comparison research, it’s best to consult multiple sources, including the stores directly like Amazon and eBay and price tracker services like CamelCamelCamel.

Of course, you’ll also want to visit Ben’s Bargains to find the lowest prices on the web, day in and day out, and to sign up for Deal Alerts. Good luck on your searches and remember to never pay retail!

    Joe, thank you for the review of shopping comparison sites. I totally agree with your conclusion that we still must look at multiple sources to find the best price. With that conclusion in mind (and me being the Ghetto Dog that I am) I must say that, as good as Ben’s is and despite the special place it holds in my heart, I frequent two other deal sites in addition to Ben’s.

    Go Ben’s!
