Have you ever wondered how DealDash comes up with their promotion ideas? I have. If you have not been bidding on DealDash for a while then it may not seem as much fun. To someone like myself who has been bidding for nearly 2 years, I see what promotions are being offered and they are always unique and timely.
This last weekend auctions are free to the winner. This means that an auction may go for more than the card is worth, it could be a $25 card and sell for as much as $26.50 or more. The winner though only pays $.01 to check out their win. What a great offer to their bidders and to a new person, how fun to have to only pay a penny for your win.
On top of the free auction wins, DealDash is also offering the 3X your clock for free bids. Since the clock normally winds down by 10 seconds, it takes 6 bids to get one minute off your free bid clock. With the 3X offer, you get 30 seconds off the free bid clock for every bid you make. This is TRIPLE what you would normally get. What other penny auction sites do this? And, free auction wins too?
I think the creative people at DealDash do an excellent job of keeping bidders on the edge and always interested. The auction items are always something we want, like an iPad, iPhone, flat screen tv’s, and the gift cards are for restaurants and stores all over the USA. I have to give credit where it is due, this site really does do the best job in engaging everybody young and old in trying to win an auction. DealDash has free shipping too so you never pay any more for your auction win than the final price. Great site, great bidding, bids are often on sale, what more could a bidder want? Thanks, DealDash, this works for me!

The Best Deals On DealDash June 10th to 16th
What did you win on DealDash last week? If you are just getting started with penny auctions and haven’t won anything yet, it’s time you get started. If you are wondering what kind of deals DealDash offers bidders check out the Best Deals on DealDash for June 10th-16th.
June 10th: Do you know how rewarding and exciting photography can be? If you are a budding photography who recently bought or won a Nikon dSLR you may be jealous by this sweet deal on a 50mm prime lens – the Nikon Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G AF-S Lens for Nikon DSLR cameras. A prime lens is the choice of many portrait photographers for the crisp clarity and shallow depth of field giving the background a soft glow. This is the same awesome lens that was won by DealDash bidder Bailey1040 on June 10th for just $0.30 – Seriously, 30 cents!?! for a $200 lens? Yup! Even if Bailey1040 were to be the only bidder placing say 30 bids at $0.15 a bid Bailey1040 would have only spent $4.80 total to win this and we know this winner spent way less in bids.

June 12th: Danny916 will be cool this summer thanks in part to this great deal he got on this brand new AC unit – but it’s not so much the price interests me about this auction, take a look at Danny’s bidding status message:
“Deal dash is an amazing challenge, each bid takes thought, do it, don’t do it, oh h— just do it. DD is large in teaching patience, don’t have any left. Good luck to all of us.” This SPT 12000BTU Portable AC with Heater sells for a buy it now price of $496. Danny916 won it for just $28.33
June 13th: On June 13th we see another status message by bidder Tampobn who says before she bids “”Hope that everyone is having a great day…. Please let me time run down and please stop over bidding and stomping, Have my daughters wedding coming up. so looking for gifts for home and yard.” Intimidation? Possibly. She’s stating intent and telling others not to bid against her. Really not something I’d advise to do. She did however win the Nostalgia Retro Series 60-Can Party Cooler Fridge for $18.01:
June 14th: Forful will most likely be baking up more than cookies this summer with her brand new KitchenAid Onyx mixer won for just $13.70 in collective bids and a final, waived end price. Not too shabby considering the KitchenAid has a $450 value!
June 15th: Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2 10.1-inch with 64GB Memory, Black Buy it Now price: $700 sold for only $54.01, plus the winner, desdecker didn’t have to pay anything for the end price because DealDas

Back to intimidating statuses on bidder’s bios: ”
“I check and see how many bids a person has put in. After I look it up . I play fair and nice and back out . Why cant others be as kind??”
Well, the name of the game is DealDash – you won’t always be able to score a deal if you are always looking for a deal. But this brings us back to our bid on bid packs and stock up point. This $200 bid bid pack was sold for $0.73 on Amazon.
Did you win this past week? If so let us know what you won and what you will do with it!

Preserving Your Summer Garden Bounty
This season gardening has become more popular.
If you have your greenhouse up and your garden started you are most likely on your way to a wonderful bounty of fresh vegetables, and/or fruit this summer.
What do you do with all of the yield?
Well, first of all the best thing would be to give away excess to friends of family, but another option would be to preserve your produce and store it for the winter months.
The best ways to this are 1.) canning and 2.) dehydrating.
Canning

If you plan on having a lot of tomatoes, cucumbers, jalapenos, the best way to preserve them to enjoy later would be to can them. As a beginner to canning you should really start small with a batch of tomatoes or berries.
Watch this great video Canning 101 to learn how!
For more info on canning you should check out this highly-rated book on canning at Amazon.com for just under $14. It’s jam-packed with 175 recipes. Use an Amazon gift card that you win on DealDash to save!
Dehydrating

Dehydrating is a process that dries out water from something and extends its life for quite a long time by doing so. You can dehydrate carrots, peas, snap peas, tomatoes (sun dried tomatoes anyone?), apples for apple chips, banana chips, peaches and more!
There’s a wide variety of dehydrators for sale on DealDash.
The king of food dehydrators has got to be the Excalibur with stainless steel + a timer. It’s great because it has a temperature control and rectangular sheets instead of the circular dehydrator. It just works better and is great if you are into healthy eating and a raw foods lifestyle where you don’t cook your foods over 104 degrees. You can make great kale chips, flax crackers, raw burgers, dehydrator bananas, mangoes, apple, strawberries and make your own fruit leather. The Excalibur is a one per user item, meaning it can only be one once by each bidder. And the past two auctions it has sold CHEAP with prices around $1.00 total!
As you can see below, and by using the search function to look up the food dehydrator auctions at DealDash.com, DealDash has a variety of dehydrators including a Nesco American Harvest 400 Watt Four Tray Dehydrator, Elite Gourmet 5-Tray Dehydrator, L’ Equip FilterPro Dehydrator, Presto Dehydro Digital Electric Dehydrator, Waring Pro DHR30 Food Dehydrator, Total Chec TCFD-05 5-Tray Food Dehydrator, a Nesco – Snackmaster Pro 700, and more. You can get alerts by clicking on “Alert Me” and DealDash will notify you when the auction becomes available for bidding.
According to the Energise for Life website, “The dehydration process retains almost 100% of the nutritional content of the food, retains the alkalinity of fresh produce and actually inhibits the growth of microforms such as bacteria.”
Do you can or dehydrate? If you would like to be sure to check out these auctions on DealDash. Good luck!
