Virgin Mobile teams up with Slifter for location based shopping

Virgin Mobile USA is trying to make things a bit easier on you. They’ve teamed with Slifter for a location-based way to shop. The application allows customers to search products (from among 300 million) and find local availability, as well as directions to the closest store. It’s like shopping online, only you get the joy of instant gratification.

“Virgin Mobile USA is excited to bring another great solution to our members. We think that the Slifter site is amongst the best mobile shopping experiences available today. Its a blending together of search and location information that really gives our members an advantage in finding the products they want, at the right price, at the most convenient retail location, said Wes Radez, Director of Mobile Content, Virgin Mobile USA.
Virgin Mobile customers can nab Slifter with their VirginXL or mobile Web plans. It won’t cost anything on top of that. I’ll see if I can test it out while I’m reviewing the Arc this week.]]>
