Happy 4th of July from DealDash

Happy 4th of July! As I’m sure you know Independence Day is coming up on Monday, let’s get the hot dogs and hamburgers ready!

There’s nothing better on the 4th of July than a wonderful BBQ with your family. And luckily for us, the 4th of July falls on a Monday this year, everyone loves a long weekend!

Now is the time to get everything prepared for your family cookout, picnic, or get together for the 4th of July. Let’s make sure that you have everything that you need to make your holiday a success.

You’re definitely going to need a grill if you’re having a cookout. DealDash always has some grills up for auction, but even better than that they usually have wonderful Omaha Steaks meat packs. Normally my family just gets meat from the regular supermarket, but on a special occasion like Independence Day I think an Omaha meat pack would be great.

If history is any indication of the future, then the 4th of July is going to be hot. If you are going to be having a family get together on the 4th, and you don’t have central AC I highly suggest that you check out the portable AC units that DealDash offers. Before I moved into my new house last year I was living in a rental house that didn’t have central AC, and it was miserable. I got a portable AC unit and it was amazing. They can cool about 600 square feet, which in my old house was the entire bottom floor. Keep in mind, though, that you have to have a window to vent the hot air out. Otherwise you will just be venting the hot air back into the house. If you would like to check out the portable AC units on DealDash, just click here.

Lastly, if you are going to have some small kids at your family party, then it would be a smart idea to have some outdoor activities prepared for them so they aren’t running around your house like little wild animals. Trust me on this one, I just had a small family party this past weekend, and with a guest list that included 7 kids under age 6, I was very happy that I had thought of the kids beforehand. DealDash has some amazing outdoor activities for kids including an awesome teeter totter and even a huge castle bouncy house! If you need to get your yard party ready for the kiddies check out DealDash’s Hobbies, Toys, Outdoors, and Games category.

Did Your April Showers Bring May Flowers?

It’s the middle of May, if you planted your flowers on time they should be starting to reward you with their beauty now.

No matter what sort of house, apartment, or condo you live in, as long as you have a small space available outside you can enjoy the beauty and tranquility a garden can bring. Flowers are so beautiful and can perk up anyone’s spirits when they are feeling down. The trick to having a great garden isn’t buying all of the most expensive and rare flowers you can find – it’s keeping it simple with hardy flowers and a few pieces of equipment.

After choosing your flowers it’s time to choose your tools. DealDash has an awesome tool kit that’s just perfect for growing some low maintenance flowers. Here is what the kit includes:

Leaf and flower trimmer
Water spray bottle

Making Your Yard a Peaceful Place With DealDash

With all of the deadlines and hustle and bustle of life sometimes it’s nice to just come home and relax outside by your beautiful lawn. But what if your lawn isn’t so beautiful and peaceful?

As someone who is easily stressed out I crave quiet time alone just sitting outside on my deck that looks out over my lawn. However, after some poor lawn management last year my yard isn’t looking so nice. Luckily for me DealDash has plenty of things that can perk up my backyard to make it not only beautiful, but a peaceful and tranquil place that I can go and escape my worries for a few minutes.

I find the sound of running or trickling water extremely relaxing and peaceful. One of the first things that I would like to get to perk up my backyard is a fountain from DealDash. The fountains that DealDash offers are made to last season after season, and they are constructed of stone powder and polyresin so they will be durable for outside use. If you think that a fountain would look great in your yard, garden, or patio you can check out this link here to see the fountains that DealDash is offering for auction.

Another thing that I have always admired in other people’s backyards is when there is a bench overlooking the yard, instead of just some lawn chairs. Benches lend a touch of class and they don’t break the bank, either. Benches are great if you want to share a seat with your kids or your sweetheart, and some benches even have gliding features built in for a soothing rocking effect. If you’re interested in checking out the benches up for offer on DealDash just click this link here and it will show you some different styles.

Time to Start the Garden With DealDash

It’s spring and time to start your garden! Let’s see what items that DealDash has that can help.

Growing your own vegetables is fun, rewarding, and can save you money. All you really need to get started is some decent soil and a few plants, but to be a really successful vegetable gardener you are going to need some supplies. DealDash has you covered.

Starting with the absolute basics aside from soil and plants, you are going to need some tools. DealDash has an awesome tool kit that’s just perfect for beginning your garden. Here is what the kit includes:

Leaf and flower trimmer
Water spray bottle
Branch and twig pruner
Spade
Trowel
Cultivator
Convenient carrying bag

I realize some people don’t have a lot of extra space for a garden, for example a lot of people don’t even have a yard due to living in an apartment or condo. Don’t worry, DealDash can help with that as well!

If you have even a small amount of space on a patio, deck, or balcony then a small raised garden bed might be the best bet for you to try. DealDash has a small Raised Garden Bed Kit that can provide you with an easy way to grow and display herbs, flowers or vegetables in smaller spaces. It’s made from recycled wood and plastic, the raised garden kit assembles easily with no tools. This wood and plastic garden bed measures 42″L x 42″W x 6″H and will not rot or decay since it’s made with quality in mind. If you would like to check out the small raised garden bed then just click this link right here.

Getting Ready for Summer Fun With DealDash

It’s just barely spring, but I am already excited about summer! Let’s see what we need to do to prepare for the season ahead.

First things first, you need to make sure that your lawn mower is in good working order. If your lawn mower is older or broken, maybe you should think about getting a new one for spring and summer. My lawn has started growing back in again after the cold winter, and my husband is going to need to go out and mow it pretty soon. DealDash has a few different types of mowers, both the gas type and the electric type. If you are in the market for a new lawn mower for this year, how about checking out DealDash’s mowers at this link here.

Since you are checking out the lawn mowers, maybe you should check out the weed edgers and trimmers. DealDash has both the electric and the battery powered type. You might think that edging your lawn isn’t the most fun thing to do, and I would agree with you, however, if you want your lawn to look great it’s something that needs to be done. If you edge fairly frequently, so every two weeks, it’s not that time consuming and can be finished up pretty quickly. If you would like to check out the selection of lawn edgers on DealDash you can do that at this link here.

I’m sure you’re saying “Enough with the yard work, let’s have some fun!” Well don’t you worry, DealDash has plenty of opportunities for fun as well. There is a relatively new product that DealDash has only been offering for a short time, but it’s awesome for summer fun.

The summer fun item that I would like to suggest is one of the new wheeled hoverboards. There are many different makes and models of the wheeled hoverboard, but they all have the same basic functions. They are all a type of portable, rechargeable battery-powered scooter. They also typically consist of two wheels arranged side-by-side, with two small platforms between the wheels, on which the rider stands. The device is controlled by the rider’s feet, standing on the built-in gyroscopic, sensored pads. I have never personally ridden one, but they certainly look like fun, many of the teens in my neighborhood have them and can be seen riding up and down the street having a wonderful time. If you’re interested in checking them out, here is the link to see them on DealDash.

I hope that you are having a lovely spring so far, but let’s get ready for summer! If you’d like to check out even more great things try the Hobbies, Toys, Outdoors, and Games section on DealDash at this link here. Good luck and happy bidding everyone!
