The success of Black Friday and Cyber Monday indicates the start of yet another very busy holiday shopping season for many of us. Good thing your mobile phone can be a powerful ally in getting good deals.
I listed some of the mobile sites of major shopping search engines so you can do your shopping while on the go and avoid the crazy crowd. Don't forget to bookmark your preferred sites so you won't have to type it again and again.
Mobile sites
Barcle.com
This is a new site where you just need to enter the product's 12-digit barcode and it will let you know the shops selling it for the lowest price. I hope this will enable barcode scanning via camera phones for typing barcodes can be very tiring.

I believe it should say “http://m.ebay.com” for eBay.

Barcle is a great tool ! Amazing to have a way to do online shopping while in-store and be sure that you are checking the right product. With the UPC there is only one right answer. I found Barcle smart and easy to use.

I just tried out this barcle site on my cell. I was about to buy an ipod touch on at Target and I found it at Circuit City for 20 bucks cheaper. Too easy! I am sold on this!

Barcle was easy to use by entering the UPC. The format is perfect on my cell. (I found probelems using Amazon.) Plus I really like that they don’t ask for my personal information.

I have gone through all these 8 mobile websites, which are easy to remember and masters in own field. Any one can relay on these websites for their secure shopping network and also well managed information regarding the mobile products.
