How it works

  • Nominate and announce your deals and discounts in one of our currently available threads:
  • A “deal” or “discount” is defined as: “A temporary price reduction compared to the original price of the published item.”
  • Each author can post a maximum of three discounts per calendar month.
  • You cannot post the same item every month or in consecutive months. If you post a deal for an item in January for example, you cannot post it again until March (you have to skip at least one month).
  • We may curate some of the best items and deals and will give them some extra prominence and exposure by using the large or small graphic banners that you provide in your nomination.

How to nominate your items

  • You MUST be the author/creator of the item.
  • Copy and paste the information below and fill out each part for your specific item and promotion. You MUST provide ALL the information below exactly as shown to ensure your item/promotion is eligible.
  • Make sure you post your nominations to the official customer-facing Deals & Discounts thread based onthe item/category you are selling (see above).

Copy, paste, update, and post the following:

Be sure to post each piece of information below on a separate line:

  • Original Price:
    • Provide the original price before the discount. (e.g. $25)
  • Discounted Price:
    • Provide the new, discounted price. (e.g. $18)
  • Link to item:
    • Paste the link to your item page. Make sure the link is on a separate line so an item preview will automatically generate.
  • Large Promotional Image:
    • Create a 700px x 200px PNG or JPG image to promote your item and drag-and-drop it into your post to upload/embed it.
    • You MUST include the new discounted price somewhere in your graphic.
    • You MUST hyperlink the image to the discounted item page.
