State Bid Packs

Have you noticed the new state bid packs on DealDash.com?

We do not have to reside in the featured state to qualify to bid on a special state bid pack. However, each customer is allowed to win only one of each bid pack auction. I like that limit because then more customers have an opportunity to win.

I also like the featured state bid packs because each one provides interesting information about the state that I might not know. I enjoy reading and learning about the states because it takes shopping on DealDash above and beyond the usual experience. Whenever a shopping site does that, it enhances the overall shopping experience.

Let’s take a look at some of the featured state bid packs so far:

  • Colorado: Featured bid packs for Colorado include 300 bids, 1,869 bids and 2,776 bids. One interesting fact DealDash listed about this state is that Colorado Springs has more sunny days than any other place in the country.
  • West Virginia: Featured bid packs for West Virginia include 178 bids, 900 bids and 1,700 bids. One interesting fact DealDash listed about West Virginia is that it has the longest steel arch bridge in the world, with a length of 1,700 feet.
  • Florida: Featured bid packs for Florida include 245 bids, 700 bids and 1,300 bids. One interesting fact DealDash listed about Florida is that it has more beach area than any other state with a total of 1,300 miles of coastline.

Back to School Shopping

This may be a good time to do some “back-to-school” shopping on DealDash.com.

One place to start is by looking at all of the high-quality pen sets that DealDash now has to offer. So far, I won two of the pen sets and they would make any student proud to add to their “back-to-school” supply.

Everyone can always use a pen that does not skip. The pens on DealDash will write the first time, every time and are very dependable. Best of all, the pen sets I won came in individual gift boxes, so it makes the perfect gift for any grandparent to give to their grandchildren.

Deal Dash also auctions off many other items that students might need when they return to school. Below is a list of some other “back-to-school” items that we can shop for on DealDash:

  • Reading glasses
  • Watches
  • Umbrella
  • Rain boots
  • Ultra-terrain hiking shoes
  • Journal w/pen and nice leatherette cover
  • Handmade shoulder bags
  • Men’s and women’s leather belts
  • Waterproof backpack
  • Apple iPad Wi-Fi 32 GB
  • Apple iPad Wi-Fi 4G LTE 256 GB

Now is a good time for you to make a list, too. Start shopping for your children and/or grandchildren. You just might get some great bargains and make a child in your life very happy.

Check Out the Dashboard

Why should we check out our “Dashboard” on DealDash.com?

If we open “My Dashboard” we will see a list of items on the left side:  Dashboard home, Badges, Public profile, Buy bids, Buy It Now history, Transaction history, Bidding history, Won auctions, My orders, Redeem gift card, Account details, Bookmarked auctions and Contact support. In other words, “My Dashboard” is the place to go to find out just about any information you might want or need.

For example, I wanted to know how many total auctions I won since I first started shopping on DealDash on Feb. 8, 2012. By clicking on “Account details,” I learned that I won a total of 789 auctions because DealDash kept track of that information for me.

I also wanted to have some more bids, but it was not yet in my budget to purchase any more bid packs. By clicking on “Won auctions,” I was able to earn 20 more bids simply by providing two simple reviews of two auctions I recently won. This is one of the easiest ways to earn extra bids. All we have to do is look for the offer in green letters, click on it, give a star rating and write a few words saying what we thought of the product. If we won an auction product that we did not yet receive, this is also the place we can go to track our winning items to find out when they will arrive.

If we want to update or change what we wrote in our “Bidder Bio,” all we have to do is go to click on “Public profile.” That’s where we will have the opportunity to update this information. This is also where we can update our icon or photo.

“Badges” is another one I like to check out once in a while. It’s fun to count the number of badges I have already completed. It’s also fun to look at the badges that are almost completed. Sometimes I only need to win one or two more specific auctions to win a new badge. That helps me to plan ahead and decide what auctions I might want to win next.

“My Dashboard” makes everything so easy to find because DealDash keeps track of all of this data for us. Check it out sometime.
