Announcement posted by Lasoo 07 Dec 2011
With just 19 days left until Christmas, Lasoo.com.au is also a great place to head before you shop – find what to buy, and where to buy it so you can enjoy your Christmas shopping. The website also has hundreds of Christmas Catalogues from Australia’s leading retailers, giving you great ideas for everyone on your list including work colleagues or people who prefer unusual gifts.
With over 500,000 products listed from Australia’s leading retailers, Lasoo.com.au is Australia’s largest shopping website, and predicts more than two million unique visitors will use the site to help them during the busiest retail period of the year.
“Lasoo has all your Christmas gifts covered, whether you are shopping for your kids, your sister or a Kris Kringle gift, by planning ahead shoppers can reduce the stress that is often involved in choosing gifts for other people”, said Dan Salter, Commercial Director at Lasoo.
Now your relatives and friends can create and email their own ‘Shopping Wish List’, which means no more unwanted presents for those who are hard to buy for. Lists created online are automatically synced to the Lasoo Mobile App to access when on the go.
With one in four Christmas retail-related Google searches being made on a Smartphone device[1], the Lasoo Mobile App is a useful shopping tool enabling users to search across hundreds of catalogues, products and brands at their own convenience.
“The Mobile App is great for those that have limited time to do research as they can browse through catalogues as they catch the train or wait for appointments, and is particular useful when a person is already at the shops and needs to access a saved list”, said Salter.
The Lasoo Mobile App is available for free download from the iTunes store and is also available for Android and Windows 7 devices.
