DealDash Exercise Tips for Busy Moms

Busy moms everywhere are having a difficult time losing weight and staying healthy due to so many other chores. Here are some tips from DealDash to try to fit in some exercise.

Are you a busy mom? Has it been a few years since you had your last baby, yet you still haven’t lost all of the baby weight? It’s so difficult to find time to fit in exercise with all of the other chores that you need to do each day. Here are some quick tips from DealDash to help you get slimmed down and feeling your best.

Mix Chores with Exercise

That’s right! The next time that you need to vacuum get a work out in while you clean. If you still have a baby small enough to wear in a carrier, strap that baby on and wear them while you vacuum. The extra weight that the child adds provides more resistance, so you are burning more calories than without the baby. If you think that your baby is too big to wear, you just need a different carrier! If you have a mei tai carrier (an extremely long piece of cloth that you tie to hold the baby) you can carry a child up to about 4 years old!

If you don’t have a child small enough to wear in a carrier, then try putting on ankle weights when you vacuum. The ankle weights provide resistance as well, so try and wear the heaviest weights that you can wear safely.

Try Yard Work and Gardening

If you have a small child they would probably love to play in the dirt with you. Take your child outside with you to do the yard work and gardening. Doing yard work burns a surprising amount of calories:

Raking and bagging leaves: 350-450 calories per hour

Gardening: pulling weeds, planting flowers, etc.: 200-400 calories per hour

Mowing the lawn: 250-350 calories per hour

Watch Cartoons and Pedal

Watching cartoons with your child is normally an activity that burns zero calories. However, if you get a Gold’s Gym Folding Body Cycle from DealDash (as pictured below) you can get your work out in while you enjoy the show with your child. Now that DealDash requests that you give reviews to the products that you win, you can see how well this product might work for you.

Here’s a Tip – DealDash Loves YOU

DealDash is a great company, they appreciate your business, they respect you as bidders, and they treat their employees well. DealDash rewards your loyalty with free bids.

DealDash is a well-respected, long-standing (8 years in February!) website that treats its customers with gratitude, respect, and kindness. Many online auction companies are completely nameless and faceless, but at DealDash you can always get a human to answer your question, help you with a problem, or give you some bidding advice. Here at DealDash Tips we always like to look at the positive side of life, here are some ways that DealDash shows it’s appreciation for you, the bidder.

Time As Highest Bidder

Were you aware that every time that you place a bid DealDash keeps track of the time that you were the highest bidder? If you look on the bottom of your screen you can see a little meter that goes up, up, UP while you are the highest bidder. As long as no one “jumps” your bid and bids right after you, you will receive approximately 8 or 9 seconds per bid. When your bid meter at the bottom of the screen is filled up, you reach the next level, you will be rewarded with the free bids. On DealDash, the more you bid, the more free bids you receive as a gesture of appreciation from DealDash.

Social Media

You can receive free bids for posting pictures of the items that you won from DealDash on Facebook.

Follow these steps to get your free bids:

1. Select an item you have won on DealDash to feature in the photo.
2. Take a high quality photo clearly showing yourself and the item you won.
3. Post photo to DealDash’s Facebook page and add a description which should include the following information: the item name, retail price, how much you paid for the item and a personal comment about the win as well. For example: “I got this $149 sewing machine on @DealDash. I paid just $9.08 and used 201 bids! Thanks DealDash, I love to sew!”
4. In the end of the caption, please include the following sentence and the link (See the picture below):
See how much you can save at: www.dealdash.com/join.php?utm_source=customer%20testimonials&utm_medium=pictures&utm_campaign=facebook

If the item value is $199 or above you’ll get 200 Free Bids!

If the item value is $99 to $198 you’ll get 75 Free Bids!

If the item value is less than $99 you’ll get 10 Free Bids!

You can see all of these instructions and guidelines on the DealDash Facebook page here. Sorry, these must be actual items, not gift cards or bid packs.

Writing reviews

Did you know that you can get free bids by writing product reviews on items that you have won? This is just another instance of DealDash valuing your opinion and your patronage as a customer. If you look on your DealDash dashboard you should see the items that you have won. If you see a link to write a review, just click it and write a few sentences about the item.

DealDash Tips to Win Toys

LEGO Star Wars Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle 75104

Toys? Toys?! Why would anyone want to win toys from DealDash just a few days after Christmas? Read on to find out why.

In case you haven’t figured it out yet, a great reason to bid on DealDash toys right now is they are not the top priority on everyone’s wish list right now. Just think, everyone who has kids and grandkids that they love to shop for have most likely just given the kids tons of presents! Unless any of their favorite kiddos has a January birthday, toys are going to be at the bottom of the shopping list for at least a month or so.

Strike while the iron is hot!

There are so many awesome new toys, Legos, night lights, baby toys, bikes, trikes, and kid accessories that are going for just pennies on the dollar right now on DealDash because no one is buying toys! Here’s a tip- bid and win on these toys now, and keep them in the closet for next Christmas! Or you could also keep them in the closet for various birthdays and birthday parties that your kids will attend through the rest of the school year.

Donation = Good Karma

Kids who live in foster care don’t always get Christmas presents. The state tries to give out as many gift and clothing vouchers that they can, but let’s face it – there are approximately 500,000 kids in foster care in the USA on any given day. Some of these kids just fall through the cracks and aren’t recognized with a gift at Christmas. Did you know that on average, children remain in state care for nearly two years and seven percent of children in foster care have languished there for five or more years? Here’s a tip- win some toys on DealDash, donate them to your local Department of Social Services, and make kids happy. These kids won’t mind if their gift is a few weeks late.

The same applies to pet products as well, as a reader kindly pointed out to me the last time that I mentioned donations. If you ever happen to win an item on DealDash that an animal would enjoy, please consider donating it to your local animal shelter for the homeless kitties and puppies. It’s the kind thing to do.

I hope that you found this DealDash Tips article helpful. Get some excellent toys on DealDash at a discount. DealDash has items for kids and babies. Visit DealDash now to browse the auctions.

DealDash Photography Tips for Bids

You don’t have to be a professional photographer to get free bids from DealDash. But here are some tips to take better pictures.

Getting free bids on DealDash is easy and fun – all you have to do is take a picture of yourself and the item and send it in to DealDash. I’ll give more detailed instructions down below, but for now, here are some tips from DealDash to take better-looking pictures. After all, these pictures are posted on Facebook for others to see, don’t you want to look your best?

Take your picture outside in the sunlight. You’ll look better with natural lighting, and there will be more light to showcase your item.
Smile! Come on, this isn’t chores, it’s fun! Show those pearly whites off and flash your best smile for the camera.
If you can get someone else to take your picture it will probably turn out better, but if you’re taking your picture solo, see if you can use the timer feature on your camera.
Keep it simple. You don’t need to stage anything elaborate, just you and the DealDash win in the picture is perfect.
Make sure that you hold the camera steady when you take the picture. It will look so much more sharp and clear when you hold it steady.
Look directly at the camera when you’re taking the picture. Try not to blink.
Take a few pictures in a row. There’s a much higher chance of getting a good picture if you take 3 or 4 than if you just take one.

Now that you’ve read the tips, are you ready to take pictures of your DealDash winnings? Here are the full instructions describing how to get free bids from DealDash using your picture that you just took.Here’s how:

After you have taken your photo of you and your DealDash win head on over to the DealDash Facebook page which is here, and “Like” it. Once you have liked DealDash on Facebook, you can post your picture to get free bids. Here are the instructions from DealDash describing how to get free bids from Facebook:
