We officially launched our wallet feature in ShopSavvy 5.0 on November 21st, 2011, but unofficially we released the feature on September 19th. The first non-employee user created their wallet and immediately bought an item for $30.90 from Buy.com.

For those of you who haven’t heard about our wallet here is a quick explanation: The wallet feature allows consumers to convert their local purchases to online purchases without leaving the application to visit an online retailer’s website.
