A group of e-commerce start-ups are pinning their hopes on Facebook, Inc. to become an e-commerce powerhouse that can stand up to Amazon.com, Inc. and eBay, Inc. Moving closer to going public, Facebook will come under more pressure to perform and find new sources for profit growth and rely less on advertising income which accounted for 85 per cent of its 2011 revenues.F-commerceSome business minds are of the thought that e-commerce on Facebook will be the answer. BeachMint, Yardsellr, Oodle, and Fab.com are start-ups that are introducing innovative ways to persuade Facebooks users to shop on-line as well, not just to stay connected with their friends.

Save with CouponCodes4u!
A lot of people have been affected in some way by these difficult economic times. When having to deal with high gas prices, the growing cost of everyday food items and the fear of being laid off, everyone is looking to save every little bit that they can. However, it’s easier said than done at times. When we first had our daughter, my husband and I had to cut back on most of our spending just to be able to combat the ridiculously high cost of formula, diapers and baby food. Now that she’s a toddler, she’s eating us out of house and home, plus growing out of her clothes at an alarming rate. I realized early one that the best way to save, even if it’s just a little bit, is by using coupons. While trying to find a better alternative to the Sunday paper coupons, which are seriously lacking these days, I found tons of online coupon sites…the best being CouponCodes4u. CouponCodes4u has the most impressive and accurate list of coupons, FreeHot Coupon Codes, and discounts that I’ve ...

However, the negotiations for the current contract renewal were unsuccessful and Walgreens was removed from the program as of Jan 1, 2012.
