A little over a year ago we told you about the website created by one Aussie to help us all make sure we’re getting the best price on our next TV – JB Buddy has since expanded to include many more products across Australian retail stores. Now, we’ve partnered with JB Buddy to keep the service running and grow what it offers.
When I launched the EFTM TV Buyers Guide earlier this year, the idea was similar, but focussed around how people shop – price, size or type of TV. That process showed me how much work was involved in maintaining a database of products and prices.
It was then that we turned to JB Buddy’s creator and looked at combining forces. For many months, the real-time and historic data shown for all the TVs on sale in Australia today in the EFTM TV Buyers Guide have been powered by JB Buddy.
And now, we can announce that we’ve partnered formally to ensure that JB Buddy is powered by EFTM for the long term. The site’s creator “KC” (we’ll keep his anonymity for now!) continues to develop and maintain the site and will be part of the EFTM family!
JBBuddy.com has grown a lot in the last year, and now allows you to compare prices on anything from laptops to air fryers, always finding you the best price.
As with the EFTM TV Buyers Guide, JB Buddy does not operate on any affiliate commissions. You search, you find, you buy, we’re happy. We make no money from your decision – unlike most comparison and search sites on the internet.
Anyone can search for a product without an account, but a free account will get you unlimited searches.
In the near term we’ve got plans to offer even more, so stick around and get ready to save!
I was one of the very first backers of JB Buddy, chipping in my ‘beer fund’ to support the ‘Lord’s work’. So it’s exciting to now formalise that support for the long term.
In the days ahead you’ll see some tweaks to the site’s branding and general content, but the principles of JB Buddy remain the same – only good things are coming!
So, don’t hold back, sign up, be part of the price-comparison and gadget-saving community over at JBBuddy.com!
