What is the value of iStorez to me?
As a consumer, there is too much information on the internet and too much information coming at you. It is hard to find the shopping information that you need in a general purpose search site. A comparison shopping site is good for research, but not useful if you want to browse across stores. If you subscribe to shopping newsletters from various stores or brands, your email Inbox soon gets cluttered up, impossible to manage and you can never find what you need. The iStorez site offers a one-stop solution, where you can browse across a wide variety of stores and check out the latest and relevant promotions and store items, as well as create your own personal mall so you can tailor what you see to what you want!
