SHOPPING PAGES

SF "Search & Find" Uptown updates its on line shopping pages with new specials and product highlights every month. By bookmarking our shopping pages, you can zip in to browse around a wide selection of shopping sources without filling in any forms or providing any personal information.

In today's PC Desktop world, "bookmarking" means "Adding to Your Favorites". That's what we hope you'll do - is add some of our key pages to your favorites, revisit us often, and even Contact Us to introduce yourself as a visitor.

If you return to the site, you'll often find new information posted or new files added in each major product and service area at least once a month, sometimes more often. You may wish to bookmark specific vendor pages we've created, or may prefer to bookmark our shopping index or product search page.

All of the online stores we feature are specially selected for their unique products, special benefits or information features useful to customers, or proven brand quality and familiarity to most American households.

If you want to find products that you don't see featured on our site, let us know and we'll do what we can to add new sources closer to your shopping interests.

If you would prefer to do your on line shopping under the umbrella of a single source or at least reduce the annoyance of multiple ID's passwords, you may also contact us about your shopping interest and we'll try to recommend options to simplify things for you.

When you choose to shop at the stores we link to, if you pass through one of our own sfuptown.com page links to go there, we may receive an automatic commission. Your customer relationship is with the store site where you place your order. Our role is that of a publicizer.

We are not employed by, nor representatives of the stores we link to, nor the manufacturers or providers of associated products or services. So we have the freedom to choose which vendors, products and services we highlight, with no bias in making our selections about who to "partner" with.

Many of our on line features at this site are free information and entertainment items. We've developed an extensive set of shopping features in order to offset the costs of maintaining the site. You may find many of your online shopping needsalready satisfied by other sites. But we appreciate any time that you choose to go through this site to connect to the stores that we link to.

We get frequent email requests for information. Despite a high volume of email, we do read and respond to all email's individually. We're not equipped to do individual searches for people. But we are able many times to offer suggestions (web links or search tips) to help our visitors get closer to what they want.

When you contact us, it helps a lot if you supplement your inquiry with some background info on yourself, especially your geographic area, occupation or profession, and some of your personal and Internet interests. This gives us composite profile of our visitors overall.

By the way - We don't share any individual visitor information with anybody else. That's our privacy policy: Nobody else gets any information about our individual visitors. We also keep our group mailings to just every 2-3 weeks, and fewer than 50-100 people at a time. No deluge of info. No mass distribution. Every message we send out is either individualized, or customized for a small group sharing similar interests.

Recently we added a set of links about consumer aspects of online shopping in our main features directory. These are intended to help give visitors an idea of the kinds of info they can research on the Internet to make educated judgements in regard to consumer protection, security, and other online shopping related issues.

So thanks in advance for Adding Us to Your Favorites. And here's to wishing you a safe, profitable and educated on line shopping experience!
