Sccope unveils the truth about retailer price reductions

14/01/2009 by sccope

The January sales may be coming to an end but retailers are still making further reductions to entice their customers during this difficult time. Mobile and online price comparison service Sccope can make your money go further this January by leading you to the best bargains on the market. 

Since the 2.5 per cent VAT reduction in December, some retailers are slashing prices by as much as 70 per cent to prevent customers shopping elsewhere. However companies are struggling to maintain a profitable level of sales and so price cuts may not be quite as aggressive as they appear. According to Sccope, prices have been cut in a large number of categories but not across as many products in those categories as it may seem.

Consumers can use Sccope to find those hidden bargains across retailers for products including consumer electronics, console and PC games, books, DVDs and children’s toys. Simply select your product, then use Sccope to find the retailer with the lowest possible prices. Sccope’s saving tips for January include:

  • Want to keep the whole family active without paying expensive health club fees? Purchase the Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii) from Tesco Direct and save yourself over £14.00 compared to Littlewoods
  • If you haven’t got the console already, save a whopping £75.00 when you buy the Nintendo Wii from ShopTo.net compared to other retailers
  • Can’t get enough of those couture handbags? Save over £30.00 on the Sex And The City box set by visiting Amazon where you can buy the set for just £54.98
  • If you’re more of an action fan, purchase the 24 season six box set for just £17.98 also from Amazon and save £25.00 compared to other retailers
  • Get the stylish iPod touch 32 GB and save a massive £109.00 by purchasing from The BT Shop for £259.35 rather than at Computacenter Express

Sccope can be used even if you’re out shopping on the high street by simply texting your desired product to 62555 and Sccope will reply with a text with where to find the cheapest prices.  If you are an iPhone user you can try Sccope.com/iPhone from wherever you are. Sccope only delivers results from the most trusted retailers so you don’t have to take a risk with unknown outlets. Top retailers on the site include Amazon, John Lewis, Waterstone’s, Currys, Dixons, Tesco Direct and Borders.
