Tip: Cell Phone Purchase

Choose your cell phone merchant wisely. I'd like to share you a tip from FONcentral.com on their side of story about why FONcentral beats Amazon regarding wireless purchases. As they pointed out to me, there are three very important differences when price comparing among cell phone merchants. Here the case of FONcentral vs. Amazon:

1) UPFRONT COST - Many phones that FONcentral carries require no upfront out-of-pocket cost. Most, if not all, of Amazon's phones require the customer to pay an upfront cost. This is very important in the mind of the consumer. If you can receive the phone for free now as opposed to recouping the cost after the rebates are received 6-8 weeks later, invariably you will almost always choose the first option.

2) FREE 2-DAY SHIPPING - All of FONcentral's phones are shipped free anywhere in the USA via 2-Day Shipping, always. Amazon 2-day shipping varies but is usually around $12.00 per item and Amazon's free shipping (when they offer it) can take up to 5 days to receive the item.

3) FREE ACCESSORIES - FONcentral always offers free accessories with every purchase. This may include free in-car charger, leather carrying case, hands free earpiece, USB cables, etc. This is not offered by Amazon.

Another important difference is FONcentral maintains its own fulfillment warehouse and call center. Thus, it processes, activates, programs and packages all orders. And, unlike Amazon, provide customer care on all purchases. Customers at any time may contact FONcentral at 800-973-0691 or by email for an immediate response. Amazon only offers email but no phone support for your order.

Announcement: Browse myJaco and Earn Amazon Certificates

Amazon gift certificate is back! Read on.

Last month, we reminded you that you can find at myJaco.com a rewarding program that rewards you by browsing on a site, free to join, and has a good tracking record. myJaco.com is committed to make the program better by experimenting and listening to members. For those of you don't know about myJaco Rewarding Program, it was launched in late 2004. Since then, the program has given out many gift certificates to hundreds of members. The most unique aspect of the program is that it does NOT require any purchase, all you have to do is to get in line by registering with myJaco.com and browse on the site for your shopping needs. Every week, members accrued top points are contacted and rewarded with an online gift certificate.

For quite some time, myJaco Rewarding Program chooses to reward members with GiveAnything certificates redeemable at many participating stores with extra deals. Over time, we heard from some of you that you prefer Amazon certificates for one reason or another. We listen, and here is the change - effective immediately for coming new winners, $5 Amazon certificate will be the reward.

Amazon did not offer generic dollar off coupon in year 2004, and we do not expect to see one this year either unless they change their promotional strategy. In that case, myJaco will sure cover the deal. Alternatively, you can simply use the $5 Amazon certificate rewards offered by myJaco.com to slash your basket price. The Amazon certificate can be deposited into your personal Amazon account, thus stackable toward your any purchase at Amazon for millions products. Remember, check current Amazon deals out before purchasing, you'll also accrue myJaco Points by browsing on myJaco.com. Enjoy!

Online Shipping Fee

I've seen the Big-O advertising all over the places these days. Starting today, Overstock.com is experimenting with $1 shipping. The idea is because Overstock says it generated more sales during the $1 shipping promotions than any other time. An added benefit to this is that $1 shipping can be combined with any coupon or deal/discount found on myJaco.com. This is a necessary step for Overstock to counter Amazon Premium program from Amazon. Amazon Premium cost $79 a year for buyers to get unlimited 2-day express shipping on over a million in-stock items, or extra $3.99 per item for overnight. Once you pay the $79 annual fee, there will be no minimum purchase required for the express shipping delivered to you. You can sure save some shipping fee if you're an Amazon frequent buyer that you buy at least once a month or more, or you can share such program with up to 4 family members. Other merchants offer free shipping rarely, or require minimum purchase in most cases. For a list of merchant currently offering free shipping, go to myJaco.com and do a coupon search with the following term:

Tip: In-Store Coupons

Questions came once in a while from readers asking whether online coupon codes can be printed and brought to a store for redemption. The short answer is NO, for the majority of stores do not accept arbitrary format of discount code printed from your store. Imagine what if every one come up with their dreamed discount and print out their own coupon and ask the cashers in store to honor it. It will be chaos. Instead, online coupon codes can only be redeemed at a .com store in most cases. During the checkout process, most likely there will be a text box where the special coupon code can be typed in, and you will get the discount if all the requirement is met. That is basically how an online offer works.

Some merchants are putting efforts to build a distribution network of printable coupons, so coupons can be searched upon, printed out, and redeemed at a local store. For example, book store Borders often offer HTML link to printable coupon pags where coupon can be printed out and redeemed at a Border local store (check availability here). Other creative approach was tested by Gap last week to email the printable coupons to consumers. We at myJaco actually provided a special service on request to participate in such promotion for Gap. However, not many stores have followed this endeavor, probably because very few has national presence as Borders or Gap.

Nevertheless, consumers do want to access coupons, in a way that is easy to access and procure, something that is widely accepted. For this, Entertainment Book is more than just the in-store coupon book, it's "The Ultimate Savings Membership" as the company behind it says. Depend on where you live, you have the potential to save up to 50% on local entertainment, dining, lodging, and more with the Entertainment Book from Entertainment.com! It is a coupon book and it works just like you expect it should. At their web site, you purchase a copy of the Entertainment Book for your hometown or a city you visit regularly, and you'll receive literally hundreds of coupons to area businesses that will save you money on just about everything you do and need, from donuts to show tickets to hotel rooms and more!

Starting 3/1, Entertainment Book is offering 50% off ($12.50 off $25 listed) retail for the first time this year when you purchase an entertainment book online.

Tip: The Incredibles

Google has rolled out a great movie search this week at google.com for you to locate showtime. It's incredibly fast and user friendly. I gave it a try with 'The Incredibles' in mind and wonder what kind of reviews are with it. All it takes for the answers is going to Google, in the search box I typed,

movie: the incredibles

Boom! I got a link to 64 reviews and 2 locations showing The Incredibles near my office in zip code 95112. Links to the theater locations are also available that take me to Google's new map service. Google map is extremely easy to use. It's fast, and it's easy to shift your view too.

Pretty cool. How about other movies showing near me? No problem, just ask Google,

movie: 95112

As a result, dozens of showtime near me were returned on screen. If you want to locate the best deal for The Incredibles DVD pre-order (available on 3/15), come to myJaco.com and search for,

New iPod only at Apple.com

Apple has announced new iPod Minis now starting at $199 for the new 4GB model, $249 for the new 6GB model. Both models feature up to 18 hours of battery life (longer than previous models). The previous old 4BG model is now $179 at Amazon. The new iPod mini comes 4 different colors - in bright and vibrant new pink, green, and blue. In addition, 2 new iPod Photo models were just introduced to the market: 30GB at $349 and 60GB. These new models are only available at the Apple.com store at this time. Free Shipping and Free Personalized Engraving still apply. Wonder what Apple might come up next? Rumor says that Apple might be interested in buying up TiVo. The speculation caused shares of TiVo have shot up 17% or more, but Smith Barney analysts don't believe that Apple is interested.
