Posted by Vinson on Feb 2, 2009 in CrowdSourcing SLIRM- Shop Like It Really Matters is the first crowd-sourced grocery shopping list creator. Using this exciting Web site is free. Select the products you want to purchase and select the grocery stores where you normally shop. The prices may already be in the system. The Web site creates printable shopping lists. Each list contains the items you’ve selected sorted by which store has the lowest price for each item. This is the first of its kind grocery shopping comparison program ever. Food is one of the most expensive parts of the average budget. With food prices continuing to soar, SLIRM will become an important part of the grocery shopping practice. It’s simple to use. It only requires that you enter the prices for the items you’ve purchased to update the prices in the system for everyone else. Add new products. Add new stores. Encourage your friends, family and neighbors to use this valuable tool. The more people who use it, the better it works and the more money you will save in the future. The program is in beta test now. It is completely functional but requires that early adopters add new stores, products and prices. It will continue to remain free. About Ted Coombs.
