ShopLocal consists of a national website, and a nationwide network of co-branded ShopLocal websites, initially including more than 140 Gannett Co., Inc., Knight Ridder, Inc., and Tribune Company websites.

ShopLocal uses a zip-code search engine that allows users to find stores within a specific radius. Shoppers can search by product category, store or brand name. The site is updated daily to reflect current sales. It also allows consumers to create personal shopping lists online that they can print and bring to stores. In addition, consumers can set up e-mail sale alerts for key items and stores.

At launch, ShopLocal.com and the ShopLocal network will feature dozens of the nation's leading retailers, including mass merchants, home improvement retailers, office products superstores, electronics retailers, home dicor stores, and department stores, as well as local grocery stores.

Has anyone heard of Stepup.com? They are still in BETA. I added a product to check it out but wasn't able to get too far. Currently no images are able to be uploaded. I believe they are testing with some large e-tailers though.
