by User, 3 years agoIt does save money on occasion, but the constant pop-ups of useless info are really annoying - and there's no option to disable them without disabling the entire extension. Useless info being things like: 'you found the best deal!' or 'doesn't work for this page' or whatever. The ONLY time I want a pop-up is if there's opportunity for savings in excess of some threshold value of the item cost; say 5% or $5 - could be user variable in the settings! It'd also be great to be able to blacklist some vendors, like ebay. That said, I'm surprised there are so few users of this add-on. I wonder if there's a better one that I'm not aware of...

- Rated 4 out of 5by Falling Rock, 2 months agoWas trying to place an order to a perfumer website. It offered the item for $70.++ (am uncertain of the cents, while the $70 part is correct; this was a coupon discount that the product vendor was offering a half hour ago.) When I tried to place the order, the CNET app put up an overlay on the vendor's webpage, and eventually produced a result of ~ $87.19 (again, cents uncertain) based on a vendor's retail price of ~$109.00. I tried to return to the vendor's page that had the $70.++ and after CNET repeated its overlay, it then produced a resulting discounted $76.29 (approx). So, I am about equally displeased with an apparent bait and switch from the vendor and with CNET's apparent adding about ~$11 to the lowest price. However, it's better than the others, so. I will lie and let live.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13275194, a year agoThis was a useful and desirable extension when it simply helped find the best prices for items purchased online. But they added a feature that pops up on almost every website offering cash back. I don't want or need cashback on all of those websites. But there is no way to disable the annoying cashback popup that now emerges constantly. I therefore found myself forced to remove this extension completely. Suggestion to developers: allow users to toggle the cashback popups on or off.

posted 2 years agoI am sorry that your Snapfish experience was unsatisfactory. CNET Shopping provides savings on your purchases, but any issues you have with a merchant, you should take up with that merchant. - Rated 4 out of 5by Surory, 2 years ago
