With the holiday season fast approaching, finding the best deals can be a challenge when shopping online .There are so many different retailers these days, it’s often hard to find who has the best prices. That’s where Google Shopping.
If you're not familiar with it, it's essentially a Google Search with shopping results. Google searches the web for retailers that carry the product you're looking for. In some cases, you can even buy the product directly through Google without having to visit the store's website.
To use Google Shopping, you can go to the website. You can also search Google for a product and then click the “Shopping” tab. (Google Shopping is available anywhere you can access Google.)
There are a few ways you can compare prices on Google Shopping.
- Search for your product on Google and then click on the “Purchases” tab.
- Select the product.
- On the product page, you will see a small section that shows the price on a scale from lowest to highest.
- Below the scale is another useful tool. If you have a little time before you buy the product, you can enable “Track Price.” Then Google will notify you of any price drops.
- The scale is a good place to start for price comparisons, but Google Shopping can go even further. On the product page, click on the “Compare Prices” option.
This will open a list of all the retailers that sell the product online. At the top, you'll see some filters to narrow down the results. The menu lists the price, price reductions, tax, and shipping costs for the product.
