DealDash is an online penny auction site with users winning items and taking home a substantial savings, but did you know that there’s a chance that you could get items for nearly free on DealDash?
This week DealDash is hosting their Santa’s Giveaway Sale!
All auction items are free – meaning the final end price of all items will be waived if you win them!
Since you have to still pay for the bids, so would the items really be free?
If you win bid packs for much less than the retail price of bids you can win items for even less, but not completely free – but there really have been amazing deals this week on this penny auction site! Bids are currently reduced to $0.16 down from the standard $0.60 per bid.
What are some of the items you have won on DealDash and what did you end up paying for them?
If you have already won items be sure to snap a photo with them and send it in to DealDash via Facebook and you could be eligible to win 1,000 free bids.
Take a look at some of the items that ended today on DealDash:
LEGO Duplo Creative Play Build and Boat Fun – ended with 38 bids from all bidders and the value is $25
GoPro Hero3+ Silver Edition Camera ended for $50.58 – on the higher end, that means 5,058 bids were placed by all bidders – if all bidders’ bids cost them $0.16 a piece this auction would have received over $800 in bids – valued at $369, but since more than 2 bidders bid the winner did win this for way less than retail.
Perry Ellis Men Cologne valued at $34 sold with only 5 bids from all bidders
$10 Panera Bread gift card (you’ve got to have their tomato soup) sold with 80 bids total from all bidders.

Then a luxury makeup brush set valued at $24 took in 326 bids.
A Hamilton Beach Classic Stand Mixer sold with only 9 bids placed by all bidders – valued at $37
and then a 40 bid pack sold and all bidders placed a total of 11 bids!?

1. Bonsai Trees
Bonsai trees are said to give good luck and it’s always good to bring greenery into a home, especially in the winter! Bonsai trees are miniature versions of real trees. They are specially trained to grow in a miniature form. This California redwood is very similar to a redwood that one might see in the old growth forest of Muir Woods or elsewhere!

A gorgeous keepsake willow basket is filled with a variety of gourmet delights ranging from Barnier Herb Marinated Olives & Sourdough Nuggets to Lindt Chocolate Truffles and white chocolate macadamia nut cookies.
