myBantu, a free personal assistant for iPhone and Android, has enhanced its coupon feature to help shoppers save more this Christmas shopping. Online shoppers can ask myBantu for their favorite shopping item, select what they like and order myBantu to fetch online coupons before making the purchase. myBantu gets relevant coupons by scanning the online world, social networks and even by requesting users friends. The users can also ask coupons of choice – restaurant coupons like Papa Murphy’s Pizza, Thai Cuisine etc, local coupons for Car Wash, Carpet Care etc., shopping coupons like Canon Printers, Wireless Devices etc., or Store Coupons like Disney Stores, Walgreens, Groceries etc. they like What is best thing about this feature is that shoppers can also directly ask coupons for their favorite dealers.


Many consumers these days are time-pressed and online-savvy, which means they have high expectations about speed, convenience of service. myBantu cuts paper coupons out of shoppers life with the ease of instant coupon redemption on the shopping spot. Unlike Search engines, myBantu will generate only three to nine relevant recommendations, and save the user of browsing through thousands of blue links. myBantu gets coupons for almost anything, be it restaurants, local stores, services like car wash or spa, or even discounts on electronic items like laptops, cameras and smart phones. With this new feature, shoppers can just ask myBantu for their coupon of choice, in their own natural language.

Choose a healthy cereal for breakfast

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

“Aim to select cereals that are high in fiber, ones that are made with whole grains,” says Sandra Affenito, PhD, RD, CDN, an associate professor in the department of nutrition at Saint Joseph College.

Not all ready-to-eat cereals are healthy. Cereals made with refined grains have no fiber and those made with whole grains have more. Some have excess sugar and some none. A recent paper published by Cambridge University suggests that some ready-to-eat cereals lead to obesity.

A good breakfast cereal should be low in sugar, and have no saturated fat and trans fat and still taste great!  Given below are most consumed cereals and respective nutritional data. Read them before you buy them.


     General Mills Basic 4

     General Mills Cinnamon Toast Crunch

     General Mills Honey Nut Cheerios

     General Mills Lucky Charms

     Kellogg’s Corn Flakes with real bananas

     Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes

     Kellogg’s Frosted Mini Wheats

     Kellogg’s Raisin Bran

     Kellogg’s Rice Krispies

     Post Honey Bunches of Oats

And one more thing. Did you know that myBantu can find coupons which will save upto 90% on the above. Use the keyword “Coupons for” and add the item name. Ex: Coupons for Honey Nut Cheerios.

Stay healthy. Eat healthy.

Repair Your Skin Damages While Looking Forward to Winter

Friday, September 23rd, 2011

Autumn is a season of transition for the skin; and it’s time to repair the summer damages while we prepare for the winter ahead. Characterized by harsh winds, decreased humidity and a cold climate, lack of good care will give the skin a dry and flaky look as the season drain its moisture content. Here are some tips for you:

  1. Do a skin peel and let go all the dead cells and hyper pigmentation of summer.
  2. Drink plenty of water to prevent dehydration and restructure your diet so that a healthy skin is maintained.
  3. Apply a heavy moisturizer with SPF protection so as to resist the dryness and the left-over UV rays of summer.
  4. Remember your feet; they are going to be stuck inside your boots for the coming months.
  5. Ask myBantu to give you the best recommendations for the season with regard to skin care products, salons, dermatologists etc.

Example 1: Dermatologists nearby


Example 2: Buy skin care products for Fall season


Example 3: Skin care studios around

Wine Festivals: A Journey from Grapes to Glass.

Monday, September 19th, 2011

The feeling of weekend is the same everywhere; fun and frolic, kith & kin. But the seasons of the year add different colors to it. This weekend let it be the color of Fall, the season of harvest, with a prevailing  mood of gladness tainted with a tinge of melancholy related to the looming of a chilling winter.

It is the season of Wine Festivals. Why not get in on the tradition of tasting the vintage this weekend? Take myBantu along with you when you take a long drive through the country roads where the nature has painted herself in beautiful shades of green and yellow. Ask myBantu to find the wineries around, give your taste buds a feast and enrich your collection with your favorite vintages.

For all those shopaholics out there, myBantu also brings good recommendations on hand painted wine glasses, wine gift baskets and lots more.
