YAY You Won the DealDash Auction! Now What?

DealDashYou won the DealDash auction! YAY! Now, here’s what you need to do next…

Step 1 – Bidding

The only way to win an auction is by bidding, of course. You’ll want to either place single bids or put your bids into the BidBuddy so he can bid for you. With a little bit of patience, you could be the winner of the auction.

You’ll know that you’ve won when you see the fireworks across your screen. You will get excited when you see the fireworks, because you’ll know that you’re the big winner! YAY! Congratulations, highest bidder! If you decided to use the BidBuddy instead of placing single bids and you aren’t watching your screen when you win, DealDash will automatically send you an email. Here’s a tip: You’ll still get to see the fireworks show inside!

Step 2 – Paying for Your Win

Once you’ve seen the fireworks it’s time to pay the final auction fee. This is the fee that starts with 1 penny and increases by .01 every time someone bids. When you’re ready to pay, then go to your DealDash dashboard and click on the “Won Auctions” tab. You’ll see the auctions that you have won and how much you need to pay so that DealDash can ship your item. Simply click the “Pay” button and you will be taken to the payment screen. You can choose to pay with credit, debit, or even Paypal. Personally, I like PayPal, because I can pay with my PayPal balance instead of having to charge my credit card for a small amount like $1 or $2.

Sometimes DealDash even has a promotion that makes your final auction fee 1 penny. They call it “free” auctions, the 1 penny is a transaction fee. So even if you win an auction during a free auction day, be sure to do to your dashboard and pay the 1 penny so DealDash can ship out your item. There is another similar promotion called “Half Price Auctions”, and your final auction fee will be half of what it would normally be, e.g. you won an auction for $7, then DealDash would only charge you $3.50. What a great DealDash deal!

 

Step 3 – Check Your Shipping and Tracking

DealDash has free shipping on each and every item on the site, including both WINs and BINs. After you have paid, your item will ship. DealDash ships items extremely quickly, I have gotten items within 48 hours of paying. This isn’t always the case, but more often than not you can expect to see your win in the mailbox the following week.

After it ships, you will be able to track it on your DealDash dashboard. This only pertains to items, not gift cards unless the value of the gift card is over $250. If you’d like to see your tracking number on your item, simply navigate to your dashboard and click on the “My Orders” tab and you will see all of your paid orders.

Did you have a wonderful Christmas with your friends and family? Were you able to get everything that was on your Christmas list? If not, no biggie! DealDash can help. Spend some time on DealDash, and get the rest of the items that you were wishing for this year.

Get Practical Gifts Instead of Fun Ones?

I love being a wife and mother, but sometimes people seem to forget that I have my own hobbies! In the past years, I have received vacuum cleaners, cute aprons, cookware, and a (very useful) electric teapot. Now, those are all fine gifts and I use them often, but sometimes on holidays I just want something silly and non-essential! However, I have to say, I use that electric teapot every single day.

If you also got practical gifts this year instead of fun ones, what would you like to get yourself on DealDash? How about some beautiful jewelry? DealDash has a great selection of earrings, and they all come in little velvet bags that are inside a high-quality gift box. Make some new earrings a gift for yourself. If jewelry isn’t your thing, how about a new painting, purse, or candle?

Don’t order things, win or BIN on DealDash

You can BIN it! When you BIN an item on DealDash, you will receive your bids back that you spent when you buy the item for the retail price. However, getting yourself a gift that you really want?

Step Up Your Bidding Game on DealDash

DealDashNeed to step up your bidding game? Here are some hints and tips from DealDash.

Are you a new bidder who is still trying to figure out how to step up your bidding game on DealDash? If DealDash is your favorite new hobby and you’re loving it, then step it up! Is your goal to be the best bidder that you can be? Well then, it’s time to learn how to up your bidding game on DealDash.

You Need to Buy Bids for the Best Price

First of all, if you’ve been buying bids for .60 a piece, then you need to show a little patience and wait for a sale. I never buy bids if they are over .14, though to be honest, I prefer .12! This means that I am not an impulse buyer, and I plan ahead and buy the biggest bid pack that fits into my budget when I see bids for .12 or .13 per bid. The absolute best time to buy bids is to wait for a big sale. Always wait until bids are at a super low price and buy them all at once, not a few here and a few there.

Set Reasonable Buy/BIN Goals

If you are bidding on things that you would buy at the store anyway such as a kitchen or everyday household item you can BIN (Buy It Now) the auction for retail value if you lose. You will also get free shipping on these items, and you will not be losing any money.

This is why you should set some bidding goals for each auction.  Setting reasonable goals is definitely a way to step up your bidding game. The more organized you are, the less likely you are to be impulsive and waste your bids.

For each auction that you enter, think about your goals before you start bidding. Ask yourself if you want to “go all the way” up to the retail price of the auction and BIN the item, or if you just want to bid 10%, 15%, or maybe 20% of the value before you drop out of the auction if you don’t win. By setting bid and BIN goals you can practice your bidding and make sure that you aren’t losing money as you go.

Always Get Your Free Bids

Stepping up your bidding game includes taking the freebies that DealDash offers in the form of free bids. There are many different ways that you can snag free bids from DealDash . You can bid on any item on DealDash to fill up your free bid meter. Also, you can simply sign in to DealDash and place a couple of bids every day. You could also try entering one of the contests that DealDash offers. The newest contest is called the “Best idea of the month” contest, and you can win 500 bids for sending in your idea to improve DealDash. Finally, sending in selfies to Facebook with your won items can also get you free bids every single week. It’s easy to step up your bidding game when you’re bidding with free bids from DealDash!

Christmas time is rapidly approaching and you may just find yourself in charge of a family Christmas party. Never fear though, as putting together a party like this is really a lot simpler then one would think. Here are a few tips to get you set on the right path, from DealDash.

Hurry, Invite Your Guests

Make sure that you let everyone know about the party as soon as possible. If you are short on time consider social media or email to tell your family about the party. This way you are giving people enough time to make arrangements to get to the party. You also want to make sure that you have a defined time for the party so family members know when the party starts and ends.  Gone are the days of using paper invitations. You can call, email, text, or even send an Evite. 

Planning the Meal

When planning for food, keep it as simple as possible. You can easily plan for finger foods to keep everyone happy during the party. If you are planning a big meal consider asking people to bring a dish to share.

Always make sure you take into account family member that might have food allergies when planning your Christmas party meal. You also might want to make sure that there is something to eat for any vegetarians in the family, or if anyone eats gluten-free. If there are any allergies or picky eaters in the family you don’t have to plan your menu specifically around them, but be sure that there are at least a few things that they will be able to eat.

Activities for Everyone

Make sure you have activities planned that appropriate for all ages. You need to be sure that every family member, no matter what their age, can participate in the activity if they want to do so. You can plan a couple of fun party games like wrapping a bunch of small gift in plastic wrap and watch everyone try to unwrap it. There are countless other party game ideas on the internet.

Other activities you might want to consider are watching a classic Christmas movie, caroling around the Christmas tree, or baking cookies together. Be sure to have a few board games out so that people can keep themselves entertained while you are busy with the other preparations.

Decorations Everywhere

Decorations really don’t have to be anything too complicated. In fact, just how you would normally decorate your home for Christmas is just fine for your family Christmas party. That will save you a good deal of time a stress in planning the party. Even if you don’t have a Christmas tree, no problem! A string of lights here or there, a wreath, or a couple of Christmas stockings will be just fine.
