Consumers Flock to the Virtual Mall on the iPad with “Catalog Spree”

Just one week after its release, Catalog Spree, a brand new catalog shopping experience for the iPad, has risen to a Top Ten Free Lifestyle Application in Apple’s iTunes App Store. Catalog Spree has also registered remarkable consumer engagement, with over one million catalog page views and an average shopper visit time exceeding 20 minutes. To celebrate, Catalog Spree will host its first demonstration for the general public in San Francisco at the upcoming Gdgt Live show, to be held Friday, May 6 from 7:00-10:00 p.m. PDT at the Metreon Shopping Center. Tickets are free and can be reserved here: http://features.gdgt.com/2011/03/20/gdgt-live-returns-to-san-francisco-on-may-6th-/ Stop by the Catalog Spree booth for a chance to win a $200 gift card to a Catalog Spree retailer – and get your photo snapped with Ms. Spree.

The release of Catalog Spree is well timed for Mother’s Day — the perfect app to pre-load onto Mom’s new iPad (other mom-friendly apps we like and recommend can be found on our blog). Catalog Spree is also the perfect place to prepare for the summer season. Catalogs such as NapaStyle, Tea Collection, Artful Home and Birthday Express will provide everything needed for the best summer celebrations. Catalog Spree is also rewarding hard-working moms through a partnership with Deal Seeking Mom to give away gift cards to any Catalog Spree retailer. Please visit the Deal Seeking Mom website on May 4 to participate.

Catalog Spree’s virtual shopping mall delivers a beautiful, fast and engaging place for consumers to quickly shop, share and browse through a variety of catalogs, with several new catalogs set to be released very shortly. Going far beyond any app from a singular retailer, Catalog Spree for iPad loads instantly and allows people to make purchases from multiple retailers, while also saving and socializing favorites on Facebook. Visit our website to see a video demonstration of Catalog Spree.

The application is now available for download from the U.S. iTunes App Store. For more information on Catalog Spree, please visit www.CatalogSpree.com.
