they should add a feature for us "users" to add photos and scan from products that dont show up when we scan from there databases

one thing i would really love is the ability to add notes once an item is saved to a wish list. this way i can remember if i saw something for a lower price at a local store taht isnt in the database.

Just thought I'd start by saying I love the program... it works great, but I did have a bit of trouble today using it at Walmart and Circuit City.

First Wall-E, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Cool Hand Luke, and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang BluRaywere not in stock at the Roseville, MN circuity city store... which was fine, I wasn't aware until this thread that local results are supposed to check the inventory. More important was that they had the Wanted BluRay was not the listed price 19.99 from ShopSavvy, but was 34.99. Tried even scanning the UPC in store, and it showed up as 34.99...

Ran into a similar problem at Wallmart, where the only thing of those movies in stock were Wall-E, however Wall-E and the Pixar Short Films Blurays were showing up as $5 less on my phone than in person. Unlike Circuit City, where the prices in store matched their online price, and did not match the ShopSavvy claimed price.... Walmart's online prices matched the ShopSavvy prices, but did not match their in-store price (and for an odd policy reason, they do not match their own online prices).

Also, Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid (Blu-ray) is not sold in walmart stores, it is online only, however the ShopSavvy program pulled up a local find.

Not trying to complain, overall, still love the program, but wanted to let you know some specifc examples of some issues that I've experienced.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.. we use a lot of 3rd party price aggregators to back our database and unfortunately they aren't always 100% accurate.. It's a tough problem, not all merchants make it easy to find out if they have items in stock or not, etc..

Yeah I scanned a can of beer (Budwieser product) and was told no matching products located... Beer, Wine and liquor needs to be a priority. I hate driving to stores to find out they are closed, don't carry it or whatever. I'm not a wine drinker and one of my guests asked me about a selection so the idea popped in my mind to use ShopSavy and to my embarrassement it would not locate or provide any details for anything beer/wine related.

What's up with the reviews if you can't even post one? Found that to be very odd when I was going to post a review on a product. So where does these reviews come from and why is the sort by rating and ads taking up 50% of the viewing space for reviews? I think because this is a phone app that the reviews should come from peoples handsets and not some 3rd party site that we don't have access to.

That shop on the go banner in the footer looks like ads... I finally clicked it. You should just make that another menu selection in the program itself so it flows easier. I feel like I am using two different products which makes navigating a bit harsh.

Other than that, it's a good start. I hope to see some really good improvements as I would love to get a lot of use out of this to save me time. Thanks.

I would love if you could use it as a grocery list (or other shopping list). I could scan some of the groceries I buy and hopefully it would keep them in a list. When I need them I can check mark them and then as I put them in the cart I can either uncheck mark them or scan them and it won't delete them from the list but rather mark them in some way to distinguish between the things you still need to buy and what you already have.
By the way, your program is my favorite on the Android OS. Very neat to show to people and a great shopping tool . Just wish it could do a shopping list as described above.
Thanks
