DealDash Tips Get Your Head in the Game

DealDash

Getting your head in the DealDash game is important. If you get distracted you have less of a chance to win. Here are some tips from DealDash to get your head in the game.

No one should be bidding distracted, but that’s just what people do sometimes, and then wonder why they didn’t win the auction. When you are able to get (and keep) your head in the game while you are bidding on DealDash it really increases your chance of snagging a big win! Read these tips on staying focused and enjoy your time bidding on DealDash.

Choose the Best Time for you to Bid

Many people have said that they like to try to bid either late at night or early in the morning to get a good deal. This might be when DealDash has fewer bidders, that’s true, however, if you are unable to focus and stay awake during these times then they really aren’t the best time for you to be bidding, even if there are fewer bidders. So choose the time that works best for you, even if it’s a time when DealDash happens to have more bidders. Let me tell you one thing, you aren’t able to win an auction if you’re falling asleep at the keyboard – unless you booked a BidBuddy, of course.

Minimize Distractions if Possible

If you live in a crazy-busy house like I do with lots of kids and a couple of pets running around, then you know it’s important to minimize distractions. Bidding while older children are in school and younger ones are napping can be a great time. With the warmer weather coming up soon, a great way to minimize distractions might be to send the kids out into the backyard or onto the deck to play with outside toys. I like to keep things like Play-Doh, chalk, and bubbles as outside-only toys. This way the kids are excited to go out on the deck and play with them since it’s not an everyday activity for them.

If You Do End Up Distracted

Sometimes you just can’t help but fall asleep or get distracted while bidding. If you accidentally place too many bids and fall asleep, or you aren’t paying attention and bid way too much, then you have BIN to save you. If you aren’t familiar with BIN, it means “Buy It Now.” If you are bidding in any auction on DealDash and you don’t win, you can purchase the item at retail price and DealDash will give you all the bids back. After you have completed the transaction then DealDash will return your bids as well as give you free shipping on the item.

We love to share our DealDash knowledge with all of the new (and not so new) DealDash bidders. Read on for a recap of the best tips from last week, from the DealDash Tips Blog.

Be Pampered from the February 17th Blog

The theme of February 17th’s blog was all about the pampering items available on DealDash. The top tip of that blog was a list of some great pampering items that can be won from DealDash. Here is one of my favorite pampering items available from DealDash:

“Bathrobe. DealDash offers a spa-style bathrobe that features a velour exterior and an absorbent terry interior. These bathrobes are up for auction in both white and gray. This is another item that’s great for a man or a woman. They are comfortable, roomy, and extremely high-end.”

 Remember Your Budget from the February 19th Blog

The blog on February 19th was regarding tips for everyone to keep in mind, in other words, the basics. There were a few excellent tried and true tips in there, but the tip to remember from that blog was to set and stick to a bidding budget. From that blog:

“You’ll need money to buy bids, pay final auction values, and also do any BINs (Buy It Now) that you deem important. Make sure that you stick to your budget, and don’t go over because then you will be short on your bidding budget for the following month.  ”

Exciting Promos from the February 20th Blog

February 20th’s blog was all about fun promotions that are run periodically on DealDash. Barbara wrote about a few different promotions, but a Mother’s Day one was her favorite. From the blog:

“Another one of my favorite auction features from the past was the Mother’s Day two-for-one special. Winning shoppers not only won the auction product for ourselves, but we also won a second one to gift to our mothers. ”

Birthday Fun for Everyone from the February 21st Blog

February 21st’s blog was all about birthday items that you could win or BIN. There’s something for everyone on DealDash. You have to think carefully about who you are gifting, though. From the blog:

So think about who you’re surprising. Are they a baby or toddler? A child or teenager? A young adult or middle-aged person? An elderly person? There could be some cross-over gifts, for sure, such as gift cards to restaurants, but for the most part, people from these different stages of life probably would appreciate different types of gifts.

DealDash Tips to Give a Birthday Surprise

dealdash

How many people do you know that are having a birthday this year? Everyone! Here are some tips to score some birthday gift surprises on DealDash.

Do you like to give your friends and family birthday surprises? DealDash has just about anything that you need to get someone in your life a birthday surprise, from a 1-year-old to a 90-year-old. There’s something for everyone! Here are some tips for winning items to give as birthday surprises on DealDash.

Who Are You Giving a Gift to?

Before doing any bidding on DealDash, you’ll need to think about the person who’s birthday is coming up. As we discussed, there is something for everyone – but everyone wouldn’t want the same birthday surprise. So think about who you’re surprising. Are they a baby or toddler? A child or teenager? A young adult or middle-aged person? An elderly person? There could be some cross-over gifts, for sure, such as gift cards to restaurants, but for the most part, people from these different stages of life probably would appreciate different types of gifts.

Once you’ve determined the life stage of the person who you are giving a gift to, then select the item that you would like to win or BIN for their birthday surprise. There are quite a few different choices of items you can choose on DealDash. With that said, here are some of the items that you might want to consider when you’re searching for an item as a birthday surprise on DealDash.

  • Gift Cards – As I mentioned above, gift cards can be an excellent gift for just about anyone. For kids, there are gift cards to toy stores, bookstores, or big box-type stores that have kid items. For adults, there are restaurants, specialty stores, and hardware stores. Nothing says love like a gift card to purchase your very own surprise with!
  • Toys – Toys are a great present for the under-12 set, and DealDash has a varied selection to choose from. There are soft stuffed animals, fun night lights and lamps, rocking horses, and even bicycles.
  • Sports Equipment – For older kids and teens, sports equipment would make a wonderful birthday surprise. There is sports equipment that you can use yourself such as basketball hoops, and also signed sports memorabilia as well. Or why choose? Give a baseball bat to use and a signed baseball to keep.
  • Camping and Hiking Supplies – Outdoors equipment makes a great birthday surprise for older teens and young adults. Most of the people that I know in that age group love to go hiking, kayaking, and even geocaching. DealDash can provide all sorts of things such as hiking shoes, kayaks, and metal detectors.
  • Art and Home Decor – Any adult who has a place to call their own could use a piece of artwork or home decor. These items can be very expensive if you buy it in the store, but if you win it on DealDash it could make a very generous present.
  • Gardening Supplies – Summer is coming soon, and if you know someone who has a birthday in the Spring or Summer, then gardening supplies could be a great present to surprise them with. They’ll love it!

Choose an Auction Time

Once you’ve decided on a life stage and a present, then it’s time to choose an auction time. It’s a very rare item that only comes up once on DealDash – they typically offer the same item within a few days of each other, so more people have a chance to win the item.

Once you have decided exactly what you want, then you can do a search with the search bar to see the different days and times that this specific item is up for bid. Choose the best time for you to bid in the DealDash auction. You can just load up your BidBuddy and have him bid for you, or you can choose a time where you can control the bids. It’s up to you! Know that no matter if you win or end up doing a BIN (Buy It Now), the recipient is going to love their birthday present.

DealDash Tips: Back to Basics

DealDash

With all of the new bidders that we are seeing recently, I thought it would be good to get back to basics. Here are some basic things every DealDash bidder should know.

If you’re a newbie on DealDash, there are certain things that you need to know so that you aren’t at a disadvantage to the other bidders. You might not have heard these tips before if you’ve just joined DealDash. If you aren’t a new bidder, then you have probably heard them before, but there’s no harm in a little refresher course. These tips are important to your DealDash success. Read these tips, keep them in mind, and enjoy your time bidding on DealDash.

Set Up a Bidding Budget

If you plan on being a regular bidder on DealDash, then you need a bidding budget. It’s important that you think carefully about your budget and don’t over-extend yourself. You’ll need money to buy bids, pay final auction values, and also do any BINs (Buy It Now) that you deem important. Make sure that you stick to your budget, and don’t go over because then you will be short on your bidding budget for the following month. You can always adjust your budget if the one you originally chose isn’t working for you.

BIN When You Don’t Win

I mentioned BIN earlier, and if you aren’t familiar with that term, it means “Buy It Now.” If you are bidding in an auction on DealDash and you don’t win, you can purchase the item at retail price and DealDash will give you all the bids back. There is a button in the auction that says “Buy It Now for XXX”, and when you press the button it will take you to the checkout area. After you’ve paid (credit, debit, or PayPal accepted) you will get all of your bids back into your bid bank.

Save Up Your Time As the Highest Bidder (TAHB)

When you’re bidding on a DealDash auction, every time you bid, you are in the lead for about 7 to 9 seconds. This depends on the other bidders, of course, and how soon they bid after you do. You have a bid meter that will slowly but surely fill up as you are the lead bidder in any auction. When this meter is filled up all the way you will receive free bids from DealDash. You will receive them right away, as soon as it’s full.

Sometimes DealDash has a special promotion called a TAHB Multiplier. People love this promo because DealDash gives you two, three, or even four times as much time on your time clock meter! This is a great opportunity to bid on something like a gift card that you don’t mind doing a BIN on. This way you can get a gift card with free shipping that you can use, as well as making great strides in filling up your bid meter.
