Technology Review

In today’s society, time and money are both being squeezed significantly. Americans are working harder for less money, spending significantly more time at work than ever only to make ends meet. The increased hours at work leave people with less time to conduct personal, everyday business such as running to the bank, getting the oil changed in the car or even grocery shopping.

Plus now that many people are working with less money, finding a bargain is a priority. With so little time, but less money, where can consumers find relief?

Relief is on the way and it’s spelled Z-A-A-R-L-Y. The Zaarly marketplace hit the web only a few months ago and already has made a meaningful impact on numerous lives. Celebrities such as Demi Moore are tweeting its praises and the site has received investment funding by heavy hitters like Ashton Kutcher and Paul Buchheit.

What’s the big deal? Zaarly is based on the notion of joining local communities together for the buying and selling of not only goods but also services. Too busy to grab your favorite sandwich during lunch but still need to eat? Zaarly can help! Login to the system, tell it what you want, when you want it and what you’ll pay, and your request will be posted within the Zaarly marketplace community. The system is real-time so giving someone a few bucks to grab your lunch is a realistic transaction.

What if you purchased an item, didn’t love it but allowed the store return policy time to lapse? Instead of having to live with the item, post it on Zaarly, name your price and let the business begin. Competitively priced items go fast so you may find yourself in the middle of a bidding war–there could be worse things!

With so many turbo-charged busy lives running on a strapped budget, Zaarly may be the country’s saving grace for many. The system provides the user with not only ways to save money but time–no other mechanism before has been able to help with that aspect.

Also, test driving Zaarly is free and easy. Create your login (your email address) and a password in order to get started. Once you’ve logged in, you can explore your neighborhood local classifieds and post and respond as often as you like. So yes…Zaarly will be a success…in fact it already is.
