Tips to Protect Your DealDash Bids

As a DealDash bidder, it’s your job to protect your bids. Here are some tips from DealDash to help.

How do you go about protecting your bids? Simple! Try to save and conserve your bids at all costs. And how are you supposed to conserve and save your bids? There are many ways that you can go about doing this. Some are easy, some are less so, but all of them are able to be done by all bidders new and seasoned. Read on for more information, from DealDash.

Get Free Bids!

One of the best ways to conserve your bids is to get free bids to add to your bid collection. When you add free bids to your bid bank you can save your own bids that you paid your hard-earned money for and use free ones instead! If you’re not familiar with the ways that you can get free bids, read on…

Promo code 2017: FREEBIDSIf you haven’t yet purchased your first bid pack you can take advantage of this promotional code and get 100 free bids from DealDash. Simply put the code FREEBIDS in when you make your first bid pack purchase.
This code can be used only once per customer and only once per household.
TATHB – Time As The Highest Bidder As you’re bidding on DealDash your bid meter will start to fill up when you are the highest bidder in an auction. Once your bidding meter has been filled just click the button that is next to your bid meter. After that, your account will be credited with free bids right away.

Plan Out Your Purchases

Another way to protect your bids is to plot and plan out all of your DealDash purchases, whether they are won or BINned. BIN of course, means Buy It Now. Buying It Now means that if you don’t win an auction you purchase the auction for regular price and DealDash will give you back your bids. What better way is there to protect your bids than to get them back after you have spent them?

If you have planned out your purchase, you will have taken into account how many bids that you’ve spent, how much time you have gained on your bid meter, and how much you will need to spend to do a BIN on the auction that you’re in. This is why planning your purchases out is so important, it’s a way for you to know exactly how many bids that you have to spend and how many you will get back when you do a Buy It Now on DealDash.

New Series – DealDash’s Top Tip Roundup

Welcome to DealDash Tips Blog. Today we are going to round up some of the top tips for you from last week. Read on for more information.

Welcome to the new DealDash series – Top Tip Round Up. We here at DealDash Tips Blog love to share all of our tips with you. Some of the tips are quick, simple, and self-explanatory, and others are more intricate and difficult. However, we love to try to share our knowledge with all of the new DealDash bidders out there. Here is a round up of our top tips from last week. Read on and hopefully learn something new.

Skip the In-Season Stuff from October 2nd’s Blog

Maybe you missed October 2nd’s blog, and the top tip from that blog is that if it’s winter, bidding on in-season things such as snow shovels, snow blowers, or other cold-weather items is not the best plan. This is because seasonal items are in top demand, and it will be quite a battle to end up winning. It makes a lot more sense to bid on out of season items because there is less competition. If you think ahead to the next season, then you will be able to get much better deals. If you would like to read the entire article from October 2nd, just click on this link here.

Get to Know Your Dashboard from October 3rd’s Blog

If you missed the Tips blog on October 3rd, it was all about getting to know your DealDash dashboard. There was a lot of interesting information on that article, especially this section about your account details.

Keep, maintain and update the credit cards you use for DealDash purchases here. You can also switch to the old DealDash page design here if you are more comfortable with that layout. You can also update/change your password through this section as well as view your username, the date you signed up, the number of bids you currently have on your account and, best of all, the total number of auctions you have won on DealDash! – Theresa B.

This article is full of information that you should be familiar with, so if you didn’t get a chance to read it you should make the time. It’s located at this link right here.

Take the Tutorial from October 4th’s Blog

October 4th’s blog suggested that you take the DealDash tutorial. If you haven’t taken it yet, the tutorial is sort of like a game that teaches you how to participate in a DealDash auction. When you take the tutorial it explains what to do, and also shows you what the other (pretend) bidders are doing. You will also receive 10 free bids for participating. If that’s not a great reason to take the tutorial I don’t know what is! Maybe you’d like to read more about the tutorial before you begin. Check out the article from October 4th located at this link here.

DealDash: Bid on THIS not THAT

DealDash

Don’t bid on just anything on DealDash. Follow this quick DealDash Tips guide to choosing what to bid on.

Now, as a big fan of DealDash, you might think that I would advise you to bid on just any random thing on DealDash. However, that’s not the case at all. There are many wonderful things to bid on, but there are some things that are probably just not right for your life that you should avoid. Let’s take a quick look at my “choosing auctions” guide.

Do You Really Need That?

When you’re browsing through the auctions it might be tempting to bid on anything and everything that you find appealing. However, this can be very expensive, and if you are hopping from auction to auction, not very successful. If you are looking for something to bid on, why bother bidding on something that you’ve won 3 times before, such as a phone case or the same pair of earrings? If you have some bids burning a hole in your pocket, why not bid on something that you know that you will use, like a gift card?

You Can Never Go Wrong With a Gift Card

As I mentioned above, you can never go wrong with a gift card! If you have bids saved up and nothing to do with them, why not try for a gift card? You might not win, but you can always pay the face value of the card and get all of your bids back. That’s the great thing about DealDash, they only charge face value for gift cards, and you get free shipping. That makes them an even better deal than purchasing them online from the store that they’re from – because the other stores charge shipping.

Skip the In-Season Stuff

If it’s winter, I don’t suggest that you bid on a snow shovel, snow blower, or other cold-weather items. Seasonal items are in top demand, and it will be quite a battle to end up with them. It makes a lot more sense to bid on out of season items because there is less competition. If you think ahead to the next season, then you will be able to get much better deals. Think about it, how many people want to bid on a swimming pool in November?

Make Sure it Fits

Bidding on clothing can get you a super deal. However, you need to look closely at what sizes you are bidding on before you give it a shot. I mistakenly bid on (and won!) a size small sweater. I am definitely not a size small! I thought perhaps I would be able to exchange it for a large, but when I contacted customer service they said it wasn’t possible. They only have a certain number of each size, and the larges were already spoken for. It was my mistake, though, so I will just save it for Christmas and give it to my sister-in-law, who can wear a size small. If you aren’t sure of the sizing, I would suggest not bidding on the item. Wait until an item that you are sure will fit comes up for auction.

DealDash Tips You Shouldn’t Forget

DealDash

You probably have heard some of these DealDash tips before. However, they are important, so try not to forget them.

If you just signed up for DealDash today you might not have heard these tried and true tips before. If you’re a regular DealDash player you have most likely heard them before. They are essential to maximizing your wins on DealDash, though, so you shouldn’t forget them. Read on for more information on these tips that you shouldn’t forget.

Buy Bids When They are at a Good Price

You never know exactly what the bid price is going to be on DealDash. It’s important to buy your bids when there is a big sale going on. Though the base price of the bids is .60 per bid, you can often find them on sale for .13, .14, or .15. Personally, if they are priced any higher than .15 per bid I won’t buy them. I know that they will come down in price in the next few days. Then I just check back every day until they are a price that I am willing to pay. The only reason that I would ever buy bids for a higher price is if I was in the

The only reason that I would ever buy bids for a higher price is if I was in the middle of an auction and I was running out of bids. That would have been poor planning on my part, and I would have to pay the price of higher bids. Don’t let this happen to you. When you see bids for a low price then you should buy as many as your bidding budget will allow.

Make Sure You Have a Bidding Budget

As I mentioned in the above tip, you should have a bidding budget. It all depends on you what that budget should be, and how you want to set it up. You could do a daily, weekly, monthly, or quarterly bidding budget. This budget can include money to spend on bids, money to pay final auction value fees, and money to purchase BINs (Buy It Now).

Some people choose not to include their Buy It Now purchases into their bidding budget. This is especially true if you are doing a BIN on something that you either regularly purchase or if it was something that you had been planning and saving up for already such as a new computer. Make sure that you stick to your budget. You can always re-think your budget at some point if the budget you originally chose isn’t working for you.
