Competitive Shopping Quick Facts

• Bids cost $1 each

• Each bid increments the auction price by $0.01 (a penny)

• Each bid resets the auction clock to the 10 second mark

• There is one winner per Competitive Shopping round

• Every Competitive Shopping round offers a Buy It Now option

• The Buy It Now price is the retail price minus the total value of spent

   bids.
Competitive Shopping Example
 A $25.00 Amazon gift card sold for only $2.50 in a recent Competitive Shopping round.
 The winner was able to purchase the gift card at a substantial discount of 90% off the
 retail price.



                                                      $ 2.50                       (Competitive Shopping Price)
                                                      $ 25.00                      ( Retail Price)


In total, there were 250 bids. With each bid costing $1, plus the final value price of $2.50
the Competitive Shopping round generated $252.50 in gross revenue.

The net profits earned in this Competitive Shopping round was $252.50 - $25 = $227.5

Because the Buy It Now option allows a user to apply the total value of their spent bids to the Buy It Now price, net profits may be lower
depending on how many users elect to use the Buy It Now option.
Conclusion
•   Competitive Shopping offers consumers an entertaining & new way to shop
    and save with multiple merchants.
•   It enables consumers to compete for substantial discounts on popular high-
    priced products such as: gift cards, smarphones, tablets, notebooks etc…

•   Consumers can apply a bid before they buy strategy to possibly win their
    desired product(s) at substantial discounts of up to 95% off the retail price.

•   It has the potential to greatly increases our partner merchant’s net profits.

•   It will increase our partner merchant’s retail sales via Buy It Now.

•   It enables each member to earn a permanent monthly store wide discount
    from 2% to 50% once per month on any product from any of our partner
    merchants.
