......The Story of egazing.com

The goal of egazing.com is to save you time and money by being able to go to one place to quickly gaze at current bargains to decide which store will get you the best bang for your shopping dollar.

Each day, the staff at egazing reads over a hundred emails to bring you special offers, sales and deals from over 250 stores. Our motto is "Why pay full price?" and we do our best to make sure that our readers get a deal.

Use our shopping guides throughout the site to give you shopping suggestions as to the most popular items and to assist you with gift ideas.

Most importantly, we created this site, because as consumers we saw bargains all over the web, but at times the internet can be so overwhelming that finding the "real bargain" can cost more in time that you end up saving in dollars.

By showing you which department store has free shipping on bath towels this week or by showing you which clothing store has 20% off your purchase, we hope to help you make the decision where to shop without having to visit 6 or 10 stores before you even get to the best part of the shopping trip, which is picking out the stuff!

Happy Gazing, and please let us know how we can improve this service for you in order to save you more time and money.

The Personal Shopper Service that helps you find your bargain. Anytime you can't find what you are looking for, let us know! We do this every day and will be happy to help you locate that hard to find item.

Why we are different
Our spotlight feature came about because as we would visit stores and shop for a deal we learned that very often, the best price is not shown at the price comparison engines!

These engines do not usually include a discount from a coupon code, a free shipping deal or a 2 for 1 special that makes the 5th or 6th store on the list actually the least expensive!

We compare current offers and the comparison pricing to help you find the lowest price to your door.

There are many websites that have lists of coupons, and many sites that have lists of deals, but as we viewed all these websites, one thing kept coming out. There were not many suggestions as to how use these coupons to your best advantage.

Just pop in to egazing.com and read our "In The Spotlight " section and you are on your way. Either you found a bargain you like or you didn't, but at least you know in under 5 minutes!


Finding a True Bargain
Most people we know are proud when they can say they got a bargain on something worthwhile. At the same time, those people are most proud when it didn't take them all day to find it.

A bargain (at least to us) is when you can get the best brand name merchandise at the best prices available from a store that you know and trust or has been recommended highly. A bargain is not about getting something for a low price that is made cheap but only lasts a short time.


So many deals it's overwheming
Have you ever felt like the web offers so many ways to pay less than full price, but it is too easy to get distracted and not actually end up saving any money at all? A sale over here, a bargain over there.......
a flashing ad that says "save $10 NOW"......if you're not careful, you can spend your whole evening looking at bargains and coupons and never actually buy something!

Search, look......... search, look......."Oh, look at that!"
you find something that you want to go see but has nothing to do with your original search .......... next thing you know, you've spent too much time! You end up just turning off the computer without ever actually buying something. It is too easy to shop the on the web that way. In fact, that is exactly the way we used to shop on the web. So many cool things.......so little time.......Sound familiar?

When we first started shopping on the web, it was overwhelming to see all the bargains, coupons and deals and that was how I shopped. Then, we signed up for all the newsletters from the stores. We soon learned that we did not have enough time to read them all and we can't tell you how many times that we read a newsletter 2 or 3 days later only to find that a great deal had expired the night before. Hasn't that happened to you?

On top of that, our mailbox was getting filled up with all kinds of junk that we didn't want and didn't sign up for as some of these companies sold my email address. We still wanted to know about all the deals and bargains and coupons, but we didn't want everything that came with it. Talking to friends we found that we were not the only ones that thought this way.

Save yourself some time and money with this free website
We visit the stores every day and we still get all the newsletters. Only now, we pass on the news so that your mailbox doesn't need to fill up and we have more fun today than ever before, sharing all this with our readers.

Stores you can trust, always Safe Shopping

We make a huge effort to unlist any sites that do these things and only to work with honorable stores and merchants that you can trust.

Some stores on the web have resorted to popup ads and installing tracking mechanisms or software programs to supposedly "help" you shop.

Another big reason egazing.com was put together is that although technology has come a long ways and opened many doors, it has also brought out people that are less than honorable in their intentions.

It seemed that all too often we would go to visit some of these so called "bargain" sites only to get 10 popup windows and sometimes, even worse, these sites would install some stupid software program on the computer without even asking if we wanted it. After 3 hours of cleaning out the computer and vowing to never visit that website again, our trust was wearing thin.

Any store or website presented on egazing.com will never install hidden programs or send you to websites with a dozen popup ads!

We will never lie to you intentionally. At the same time, we reserve the right to be wrong or stupid when it comes to telling you about deals. There certainly are times when a coupon expires early or a store pulls it and we appreciate it if you let us know if you find one of these.

Thanks for being a reader

While we work many hours searching for deals and putting together suggestions, this site is for you, the reader.

Please help make the site better by telling us what you like and don't like. This is a small company that takes all suggestions to heart.

This is also a chance for us to say thanks to all my readers because unlike a shop where we can personally thank my customers, a website impersonal and you do not get the chance to talk with the readers.

So, "Thank you for Visiting! and Happy Gazing!"
