Can I Get This Cheaper Online? Text Frucall

855 views

Frucall upgraded its free instant comparison shopping service for cellphones so now all you have to do is send a text message. Simply text "fru" and the product barcode to a special number and get the results back by text.

Also, Frucall mWeb offers a "streamlined" version of Frucall.com for you to use on a web-enabled cellphone.

The text service is in beta. Registered Frucall users can email support@frucall.com to get access. — BEN POPKEN

I heard about this a couple months back, but never got around to trying it. I'm more likely to use the voice service since I have minutes aplenty, but the computer voice isn't always the easiest to understand. I love that it includes estimated shipping in the prices, though.

That's an incredibly good waffle iron! It will make you very happy!

You can already do this with Google's (quite excellent) text message search. Just send a product name followed by "price" or a UPC or ISBN to GOOGLE (466453) and you'll get 3-4 web prices from Froogle.

Google SMS, yes!

Another alternative is the PriceGrabber.com WAP site. No registration required.
