$500 Deals Submission Contest

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by Loganet, Oct 7, 2008.

    Help me build the best site to find free best deals on the web! I'll pay $1 for each deal submission that qualifies, to the first 500 deals or until the conclusion of the contest at the end of the month.

    Right now, if you type "free deals" or "free stuff" in Google, you get hundreds of pages of useless junk. In order to list only the best deals, only totally free deals will qualify. Things like free ebooks and icons are not accepted. Also, only deals in the United States, as most companies won't ship overseas. Be sure to read the complete rules at www.freebestdeals.com.

    Any feedback or suggestions are welcomed. Thanks everyone! Good luck and have fun!

    Thanks for the feedback and submissions, everyone, but, to qualify for the contest, you have to submit the deals at www.freebestdeals.com -- not just list them here in the forum.

    Please read the contest rules at freebestdeals.com to make sure that your deal qualifies. In order to sift through the deals and find the most valuable deals for members, a number of items do not qualify for submission. These are listed in detail in the contest rules.

    I checked out a couple of the submissions listed here and most of these will not qualify in the contest because they require you to complete additional offers or refer additional users.

    Also, payment instructions are clearly stated in the contest rules.

    Again, please read the contest rules at www.freebestdeals.com.

    Thanks!

    Thanks FutureSeal! I was going to pay at the end of the month, or after all 500 deals were submitted. This was to encourage multiple entries, so I wouldn't have to make a gazillion $1 payments.

    But you've already submitted about 25 of them? And most of them look good, so I have no problem paying you now. Give me a day or two to check through and verify them. PM me with your paypal info. Thanks again!

    Loganet you might want to let buriot know he is putting up duplicates of some free offers I have already entered.

    Hi FutureSeal, Buriot,

    Wow! You're right, only five pages (50 deals) display. I'm suspending the contest until my programmer can get this fixed, since we won't be able to tell if a deal was previously submitted.

    I'm sure that the deals are still in the database. Its probably just a display issue. Since you two are co-operating so well on this, I will pay both of you for all the deals submitted so far, even if they are duplicates.

    @FutureSeal - I have your first 25 posts on record, so I can still send you a payment for them.

    @Soulzripper - do you want to PM me 2 or 3 of the deals? I'll check them out. If they ship to the U.S. I suppose we can include Canada, too. After all, we don't want to piss of the makers of Blackberry. Or 8everything! :eek:

    Ok, the $500 deals contest has started back up again. My programmer added more pages. Some new rules, though.

    1. Be sure to do a search to check to see if the deal has been previously submitted. If it has, it won't qualify for payment. A previously submitted deal will still be searchable, even if it is no longer being displayed.

    2. I'm sorry, I've got to limit it to only five submissions per person per day starting now. You guys were great in jump starting my site and sent in a ton of submissions, but it was getting hairy trying to track all 80 deals that everyone sent in. Can you imagine if we had just five or ten people sending in that much per day? If you submit more than five, I will only pay for the first five.

    Also, with large number of submissions, the deals were scrolling straight to the back pages (and dropping off) before anyone really got a chance to see them. Which defeats the purpose of the site. I may re-list some of the deals that I really like. Plus, I only see 10 pages displayed. I don't know if that's the limit for visible pages or what?

    Thanks again for all your contributions!

    I still have over $400 dollars for the Deals Submission contest. Special thanks to Buriot and FutureSeal16! They've submitted over 80 deals between them. If you check my iTrader, you can see that they've been paid.

    Here's a special offer just for DP'ers. I'm looking to put together a special Free Birthday deals page. Therefore, I will offer $3 per deal for each for the first 20 Free Birthday deals that you find. All rules for the Deals submission contest applies, including:

    * deals must be completely free. They cannot require any other action other than registering and providing info for shipping. Birthday deals must provide free stuff on your Birthday

    * a maximum of five deals per person per day. Anything over five deals will not be paid

    * deals must be submitted at www.freebestdeals.com using the submission form

    * please use the search feature to check that a deal wasn't previously submitted. Duplicate entries will not qualify.

    * there is a list of items that will not qualify. Please check Events at FreeBestDeals.com for complete list of rules.

    * Birthday event ends in one week or after 20 deals, whichever comes first.
