Share - to e-mail address option

Is it possible to get a share to e-mail option, where you can input a person's e-mail and a bargain is sent to that address. At times I want to show someone and just want to send them a link to the bargain so they can check it out.

This would be helpful out and about when you may not have a dedicated mail client on your mobile device.

  • if you've got facebook you can always like the deal, then repost it to your friends account.

    • Yeah, not everyone has a Facebook page and more so I want to send it to people I'm not facebook friends with.

      • true, i'm just thinking people might not appreciate the link. When i see an email that says something along the lines of "Hi Davo, Rumbaar things you would enjoy this website" I think wtf has he signed me up for.

  • Good idea. I believe we did have this at one point using the Sharethis widget.

  • Yes we were using AddThis before which has an email option. We stopped using it because it slows down page loading every now and then (it can't do asynchronous Javascript loading).

    It's likely that we'll go back to something like AddThis rather than build our own email-sharing option. Just need to figure out whether there's a way to make it load faster (and not stall the page when their website slows down).

    • Ah cool. Good luck with getting it working again and not having it adversely affect the site.
