DealDash411: My Genius Idea

Ok, I think i struck gold with this one. Best Idea Ever. (or newest best idea ever). Everyone is getting a little bored and frustrated with Deal Dash, now that everyone and their mother (literally. Their grandmothers too) has a ba-zillion Deal Dash bids because they were offering a special because it was a Deal Dash employee's goldfish's birthday.  Deal Dash is losing a little bit of the charm they first had. So it might be the perfect time to introduce the BEST PENNY AUCTION IDEA EVER. This will be your newest, coolest penny auction site - with the best items, the best of the best of the best, and then I can make me some money (intentional bad grammar).

ugh it is just so good.....


really.....


this one is going to be my biggest success story ever....




wait for it......

drummerboy - drum roll please........ it's called....



ProtoProToss's CLOSET

Right? Best idea ever? We know ProtoProtoss must have a closet full of the best brand new gear - computers, cameras, ipads, Cracker Barrel cards, Vacuum cleaners and more. You name it and I bet he has won it somewhere...It will be the elite of the elite penny auction sites! Win ProtoProtoss's stuff!
(so ProtoProtoss, maybe at this point you should give me a call...i know you may be learning this genius idea with everyone else, but BEST PA SITE EVER!! And we could put some barbells on there, and make the shipping so expensive that it pays for the item. Oh wait, sorry, Save Big already cornered that market...)

So while ProtoProtoss and I work out the details, everyone just sit tight and think about how awesome this site would be.

Catch ya later on my  yacht, while i hang out with other PA success stories!
Or not.

Dealdash411: TIME OUT!!!

Ok, so i see regular players bidding on a $10 gift card...which of course is not on the main screen, and yet i see big names in there like krisoma...it is popping up on the right side when you go into other auctions..did they glitch? I have yet to see the $10 gift card since back in the day when i signed up....does anyone else still get these from time to time? Those are the Newbie Luring cards!

in fact...fyi...also bidding on that card is a player named cemetarygates. I've seen cemetarygates over at yourpennywins.com and he battles...if he is joining DealDash now, or coming back to play if he already has joined, it will be interesting to see what strategies he uses. Haven't seen his member date yet.

Meanwhile, krisoma and catlabbs22, are you guys really battling over a $10 gift card? Remember, i think you still pay shipping on those so really you end up with like $5 gift card, minus all your bids. Help me understand.

[tangent: So the player name cemetarygates initially intrigued me, because i thought this was chosen in reference to the Pantera song,  "Cemetary Gates." Which i think is really cool. But now i'm thinking it is just a name...cemetarygates maybe you should say it's from Pantera. That is hard-core cool. [end tangent]

Dealdash411: Wicket The Ewok Board Game

You're thinking, "this is a DealDash site. Why on Earth are  you going to talk about Ewoks?" Here is how: Deal Dash has Super Mario Bros. Monopoly Game. I think it was genius of Monopoly to continually update their theme so the same game sells over and over again. Why re-invent the wheel? So genius. That's why some people are rich and some people are not. So then I was remembering the Star Wars Monopoly. There were all kinds of versions including this brilliant specimen:

So cool. Then I thought about Star Wars, and Return of the Jedi. And Ewoks, and finally the Wicket the Ewok Game which was one of my favorites.

Seriously best game ever.

To recap: DealDash Super Mario Bros Monopoly - Monopoly - Star Wars Monopoly - Return of the Jedi - Ewoks - Wicket the Ewok Board Game. See it does have something to do with Deal Dash.  Duh.
