Hi Mr. SlickDeals!

You may think about automatically synchronizing the in store flyers of all leading retail outlets.

You may try first with electronics retailer giants then move on to other.

For a prototype you may consider BestBuy & Circuitcity. Also there should be a way for users like us to compare the price between these stores for a given commodity X.

Please note that I am not asking you develop an application like price grabber. I am only asking you to do a real time synchronization of in-store deals of all leading retailers.

Thanks,
LKDash

AFIK they weekly deals/circulars don't have a text version. if any user takes the time to type up there own list of weekly deals, mods usually sticky it.

ArjunSr: Software can read text from BMP files and these are all interactive pages. It's very much possible to sync these pages. It's pretty simple.

Then I'm sure they would be very grateful if you took care of that for them. If not, stop being lazy and read the ads. They're only a few pages each. Seriously, this is just sad.
