please READ before posting any questions here

Dear DOD friends,
There has been an abundance of posts on this Internet Deals board by members both new (welcome!) and old (...are gold, hehe). However, many posts are questions by those looking for deals, and these are knocking actual "found a deal" posts off the first pages. Please use the search tool located at under the "Post Reply" on the top right. I always do that before posting questions, and the customability of the search tool can help you too find deals by website name (phrase) or even products (words) like, say, "camcorder" or "pet tags", if you configure the search to check ENTIRE messages (not just subject line) for items.

Meanwhile I'm wondering if Mayor and the top brass ( ) will consider creating a "Need Help with Deals board" (or redefine the Questions board accordingly) and, to encourage people to reply and help out other DODites there, have daily prize draws (even $5 amazon GC should do...) for those who REPLY (not those who post though, or the results can be imagined!) to threads on that board.

Bump this up if u wish...Thanks.

Hi Folks:

Just to clarify, we do allow you to ask for a deal here on the Internet Deals board. However, doing a search is very much encouraged before posting a question. Many times you get the info you want right away without waiting for responses!

Most importantly, enjoy the board. Its great to see everyone working together to save money. You're a great bunch of folks! If you have a comment or suggestion, please let us know.

I concur MrsArkar! It sounds like a great idea to create a board for questions with some motivating factor to help people with those questions.

I would like to see a board for deal questions and for deal feedback. I would like to have a place right now to be posting and reading about what has happened to orders placed at Fultonstreet and at Anotheruniverse. I don't like bumping the old thread up to comment on it, esp, when it is more than one page long. The chitchat forum is more for just talk about other topics, we need one just about deals - internet or B&M. I find more more info on deal problems at other sites than at this one.

Although I saw a post on here several weeks ago about an E-Trade deal, I searched for information and came up with nothing. I guess that the search doesn't work that well on certain criteria.
