How Can You Get a Great Memorial Day Deal on DealDash?
The only way to get a great deal on a DealDash auction is to bid, of course! For today, Sunday, May 28th, the bids on DealDash are only .13!!! This is an excellent time to stock up on bids, however, it’s possible that the prices might go even lower tomorrow on actual Memorial Day – You’ll just have to wait and see!
There’s also an excellent DealDash promotion going on right now called “Free Auction Weekend.” This is a bit of a misnomer, though, if you win an auction you will be charged 1 penny. This 1 penny is a transaction fee and applies to all free wins.
Free auction weekends are a great time to get a deal because you can set as many BidBuddies as you like with the number of bids to reach the BIN (Buy It Now) price without having to worry that you will go over the value. Setting a BidBuddy is the only way that you’re going to win auctions with any regularity. The BidBuddy truly is your best buddy when it comes to DealDash auctions!
