DealDash Tips to Win Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day will be on Sunday, May 14th this year. You have approximately 2 weeks to get the lovely lady in your life a nice present. DealDash has some tips for you.

What does your mom, wife, aunt, or grandma enjoy doing? There are so many different ladies out there, and they are each special in their own way. Perhaps your mom loves art, and your wife doesn’t care about art but loves to go out to eat. DealDash has something for each of the special ladies in your life.

Pampering Items

Not all – but most – ladies enjoy pampering items. These items can include things like back and foot massagers, candles, and beauty treatments. Pampering items can also include things like perfume. Not every woman loves perfume, but many do. And the ones that love perfume tend to wear it every day, so they go through it pretty quickly.

Clothing and Bags

If a lot of women enjoy pampering items, even more women enjoy clothing and bags. DealDash has recently started offering not only clothing, but also ladies’ purses, wallets, and laptop bags. Wouldn’t your mother or wife be so surprised to be gifted with such an amazing present as a new purse? She would love it! Luckily, you can win one on DealDash for an amazing deal.

Jewelry and Watches

Do you know what kind of jewelry that the lady in your life likes to wear? You probably can’t go wrong with a beautiful necklace. Even if your favorite female doesn’t wear necklaces every day she most likely wears one on special occasions or date nights. Earrings can make a lovely gift as well, just be sure that the recipient of the gift has pierced ears!

Gift Cards for All Occasions

No matter what the lady in your life enjoys, DealDash has a gift card for that. DealDash offers restaurant gift cards, big box store cards, gas gift cards, and specialty retailer cards as well. There are gift cards of different denominations from $10 to $500! Some of these gift cards are bundled with bids, and some aren’t. If you wanted to make sure that your mom has an excellent day, why not make her up a bundle of gift cards that include all of her favorite things?

Buy It Now – BIN IT!

Now, your mom loves you and doesn’t want you to waste your money. So when you are bidding on an item and are certain that you aren’t going to win but you have already used a lot of bids on it, then you can BIN it. BIN means that you pay the retail price of the item or the face value of the gift card, and DealDash will return all of the bids that you used on the item. They will also ship it to you for free. It’s a great way to bid on the items you want, but have the safety net of getting your bids back.

DealDash Tips for Expecting Parents

Expecting a baby can be a little scary. DealDash can give you some tips on shopping for the new baby.

Having your first baby can be especially scary, though the subsequent babies can be a little frightening as well! Having everything prepared and ready to go for the baby can help ease the stress and worry a little bit. DealDash can’t come to the delivery room with you, but can certainly help you get the baby supplies ready. Read on for some shopping tips.

The Baby Needs a Crib

Co-sleeping is very popular in some areas of the world, but doctors in America usually advise against it. I personally co-slept with one out of my three children, it was the only way that I could get any sleep! Even though I co-slept with her, I still had a crib left over from my first, and she took her naps in the crib. I would advise every parent to have a crib available even if you are planning on co-sleeping. DealDash often has cribs available for auction.

If you don’t want (or have space for) a full crib you can always use a Pack N’ Play or portable play yard as an impromptu crib. These are also extremely handy to have when you travel with the baby. All three of my babies spent time sleeping in a Pack N’ Play at some point or another. They are fairly inexpensive and I would suggest getting one. DealDash often has Pack N’ Plays available for auction.

The Baby Needs a Car Seat and Stroller

Many hospitals won’t let you take your baby out of the hospital without a car seat. For the first 6 months or so most babies ride around in a “baby bucket” type car seat that snaps into a base in the car and can also snap into certain strollers. The baby bucket is extremely useful and makes life a lot easier. It’s much faster to snap the bucket in and out rather than removing the baby. The combination of the baby bucket and the stroller that it snaps into is called a “travel system,” and DealDash often has them available for auction.

The Baby Needs a Baby Monitor

Once you have gotten your little bundle of joy home you’ll want to keep them under your watchful eye. Hopefully you’ll have an easy baby who will sleep by themselves and take lots of naps. This is when a baby monitor comes in extremely handy – you’ll be able to eat and shower while still keeping track of your baby. DealDash often has baby monitors available for auction.

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.
