CoolSavings.com Enhances User Experience With Launch of CoolDeals and Redesigned Site

CHICAGO, Oct. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Today CoolSavings.com [www.CoolSavings.com], an online savings destination where budget-conscious consumers find free grocery coupons and offers from their favorite name brands, announced new enhancements, including an exclusive daily deal product, CoolDeal, and an easy to navigate site redesign. Also today, news of the site's benefits was featured on The Balancing Act, a celebrated morning show on the Lifetime Network.

The new feature, called the CoolDeal, spotlights one exclusive offer from a national brand for CoolSavings members, but only for a limited time. This discount group-buying model has a proven track record for both brands and consumers, with many popular sites offering local deals on everything from gym memberships and restaurants to skydiving and pedicures.

To date, CoolDeals have come from brands such as Mrs. Field's, AMC Theatres and Starbucks. In a recent study from CoolSavings entitled "The Evolution of Couponing," 78% of consumers said they prefer purchasing entertainment deals (such as discounts on movies, dining, etc.) via the daily deal method.

To accommodate the new CoolDeals, CoolSavings has unveiled a new web design. Now it's even easier for consumers to find the savings they need—whether in store or online. Bargain hunters can save by taking a CoolDeal, printing grocery coupons, browsing offers from local or online merchants, comparing prices on specific items, and more. Further, consumers can now narrow their search by categories such as Babies & Kids, Clothing & Apparel, Dining & Entertainment, Groceries, Health & Beauty, Home & Garden, Pets, Seniors and Travel.

"CoolSavings.com is entering its next phase as a leading website which helps consumers save how they want to, on what they want to, every day," said Emily Girolamo, Vice President of Marketing at CoolSavings. "The new CoolDeal feature and the site redesign reinforce the importance of convenient savings—which is the core message of CoolSavings—savings made simple."

This morning, Girolamo was featured on Lifetime TV's "The Balancing Act" morning program to talk about getting the best deals and savings from one source, CoolSavings.com. "The Balancing Act" is America's premier morning show about women, for women, and trusted by women, and the majority of the CoolSavings.com audience consists of those that control the household budgets – moms.

Girolamo explained how the website offers deals on name brands and features free grocery coupons, savings tips, daily deals, and more ways to save when planning your family budget.

CoolSavings.com is a pioneer in online savings. Founded in 1994, the company has consistently provided a robust savings destination for a variety of consumer segments – specifically, the coveted mom consumer group.
