With the vast array of products available on the market today, being sold from multiple outlets through various channels, shopping for the holidays oftentimes proves overwhelming and time-consuming. Shopping smart, with regard to both time and money, becomes a skill in and of itself.
Just in time for the holiday season, the new mobile app Shop for Kids by TimetoPlayMag.com makes shopping for our little ones easier, smarter, and less time-consuming. By simply scanning the UPC code of a product you find yourself interested in or typing the product’s name into the app’s search bar, this mobile shopping tool immediately provides you with a complete product profile, written and videoed expert reviews demonstrating how the product works as well as its pros and cons, and a rating based on various factors—including fun, learning curve, quality, and ease of assembly and instructions. Moreover, the app provides you with real-time, online price and availability at major retailers—such as Wal-Mart, Toys “R” Us, Target, and Amazon—ensuring that you make the most educated shopping decisions possible.
Shop for Kids features filters for gender, age, type of product, and price range to narrow down your search. In addition, the app allows you to bookmark favorite products for future birthdays and other special occasions, as well as to share your favorites via Facebook, Twitter, email, or even text message.
