Shortcuts E-Coupons Go Mobile

Electronic coupon service Shortcuts.com, which cuts the paper out of coupons by linking them directly to grocery store savings cards, has launched mobile version of sorts.

The new Shortcuts.com Mobile lets shoppers choose electronic coupons using their cell phones. This means that instead of having to use a PC to select which coupons to activate before heading out to do the grocery shopping, consumers can make the decision on-the-fly while browsing the aisles and click to have the savings offers downloaded to their savings card. Consumers can also search for coupons by category.

To take advantage of the AOL-owned service, new users first need to sign up at shortcuts.com on their PC before logging in from a cell phone.
