So, what is the best deal you have ever gotten online? Most woots qualify for great deals. But what else have you found?
One of the best I have gotten was a infra-red toaster oven, rice cooker and ice cream maker which all sold for $150. After rebate and coupon code I got them all for $25!
I have gotten a lot of free stuff too, but that is one of the best I have gotten where I had to pay something out of pocket.
I got a deal some years back where the combined rebates exceeded the cost of the product (a network router) by a penny. And I signed up for a credit account at the same time, to get free shipping.
So in the long run, my cost was stamps & envelopes for three rebates, a stamp for one credit payment (payoff) and another stamp & envelope for my instructions to close the credit account.
I’ve forgotten the vendor’s name, but then I suspect so has everyone else. They went under so fast that I doubt they ever opened my letter.
I bought a ARGIS mapping software package from a freight salvage company for $14.95 and sold it on eBay for $1,074.00! ( I realize my post is a little bass akwards from what you were asking.)
one time i asked this kid for change for a twenty. What an IDIOT! He gave it to me! I gave him the twenty and he gave me back 1 ten, 1 five, and 5 ones!!! I multipilied my weath by 7 times!!!
If real-world deals count, the best I ever got was when I was shopping while out of state on a business trip, and the salesclerk put my check into the bag with my items and no receipt! Which I didn’t notice until after I got home. So, even if I had wanted to mail them the check, I didn’t know who or where. It was just some mall store I’d already forgotten.
i get most of my really good deals person to person, rather than online. i got an entire component stereo system - speakers and all - for $150. i have a hard time beating that one.
