Their main feature and indeed the oldest is the basic catalogue of coupons and deals. Searching for an item or a particular store will turn up results well into double digits that could save you up to 50% in some cases. You can see a small proportion of the offers out of a total of 28 which I got for searching ‘books’. Typical examples include ‘50% off’ and ‘4 for the price of 3’ and so on.

They have also launched a new feature called ‘Locker’ which now gives you the ability to store the deals you found online. Beside every offer there is a button which reads ‘Watch This Offer’. When you click on it the offer is added to your locker which you can retrieve at any time.

What I liked most about the locker was that you didn’t have to register. All of your items would be stored online for you once you were using the same computer. To use different computers and for added security it’s recommended that your register.

Features:

• Thousands of offers and coupons.
• Ability to save your offers online.
• No registration required.
• Hundreds of new promotions uploaded daily.

Enter Amazon Discount Finder, a search tool to find Amazon discounts. It lets you search for discounted items by category and discount range (ex. 50% and more).

1. Pick a category, say Computers
2. Pick a discount, maybe 60% (and above) off!
3. Click “Find Amazon discounts”.

Please note that what you get with discount finder is different from Amazon coupons. Here you’re seeing items that were reduced in price. Sometimes it happens because the item is no longer in demand, other times it can be due to a price mistake. Whatever it is you’re very likely to find a bargain deal here.

Another great feature that most Europeans will probably like about this tool is that it works for non-US Amazon sites as well. It supports Amazon.co.uk (Unted Kingdom), Amazon.ca (Canada), Amazon.de (Germany), Amazon.fr (France) and soon Amazon.jp (Japan).

The price lookup utility uses an item’s UPC or ISBN to search for the minimum prices as listed on various websites (Amazon, Half.com, PriceGrabber). The search results are returned and displayed in an easy to read table that allows you to compare prices and basically see if an item is a great buy or not.

What is a UPC (Universal Product Code) or ISBN (International Standard Book Number)? Well it can be thought of as the barcode number associated with a certain item or product. Since most products have a barcode associated with them essentially any item can be easily looked up by simply typing or scanning in the UPC (or ISBN) and submitting it to be processed.

Feature:

• Retrieve the minimum price from several websites using an item’s UPC or ISBN.
• Contains four search modes (single item, batch, mobile, sms) for looking up an item.
• Search as many items in any of the versions (single item, batch processing, mobile, sms) as you like.
• Results returned and displayed in an easy to read table.
• Results clickable and will take you to the listing of that item on the associated website.
• Download and save your table of searched items for your records.
• Mobile version: stripped down version of the same utility but for easy viewing on mobile devices.
• Sound notifications for mobile devices (just enter the number and listen to see if an item is a good buy).
• SMS feature: Text an item’s UPC or ISBN to hunter@thrifthunting.com and receive a text message back with the results.

Note: Use of the “hunter” utility on ThriftHunting.com is free but some features are limited to upgraded members once the trial period expires (don’t worry there will always be a free version for processing items, it just might not have all the bells and whistles). Also note that for the “SMS” feature standard text messaging fees may apply depending on your mobile service contract.
