I’m learning that bidding on DealDash is not just about luck… but a lot about timing. The right time to buy bids, the right time to use them, and the right way to use them.

Bidding when you are on a limited budget is tricky business so you want to make educated decisions when you spend any money.

Observations From The DealDash Sidelines

February 27, 2014 DealDash Reviews

I have been watching DealDash auctions for the past couple of weeks, participating in a few, but trying to figure out the best system to aid in winning.

A few observations I’ve recently noticed:

$10 Burger King gift cards – closing over $8.00 not counting the number of bids the winner had to place. I have closing costs of $9.95, $9.79 and $9.05. Where is there a deal in that? I give up on bidding on those for now.

Making The DealDash TV Commercial

February 24, 2014 DealDash Reviews

Did you see the DealDash.com TV commercial? If not, you can see it here: http://goo.gl/M4WAV6.

I am one of the lucky three customers featured in the commercial — the one who won the 55-inch TV set. Yes, DealDash.com used real customers in its first-ever commercial, not actresses, and I think they are to be commended for doing that.
