Shop Smarter with Social Media by using Twitter, Facebook and more to find the perfect looks and save big online.

Charlie Graham, founder and CEO of Shop It To Me, an online sale-alert e-mail service and Web site, wants to help you make better use of your time, particularly time spent shopping online.

Shop It To Me, launched in 2004, was born out of Graham's love for all things sale: "I'd always find out about sales after the deal was over," he says.

From an idea to a successful business. Shop It To Me now has over 2.5 million subscribers who receive daily e-mails with links to items available both on sale and in their sizes from over 100 retailers, including Nicole Miller, Miu Miu, Ralph Lauren and Nine West.
