Especially on the blog, deals posted for stores/companies I haven't heard of.
Yes, I know this is a ON-centric site, but then why can't those be posted with the title including "ON only".
On the forum, I more notice this with flyers - smaller stores or maybe chains which are regional only.
What happen to the good deal blogs on the main page??? The past while the main page has gone from bad to worse. What happened to basic deals that 90% off the population is interested in?? Instead of blogs directed at the 1% that might find a $1200 coffee maker a great deal?? *sigh*
3 luggage blogs on the first page??!! Really??!! What happen to basic coupon and grocery deals?? And I thought it couldn't get worse :(
What's with redirect links being used for some postings on the blog?
- the main posts, I am not referring to commenters
e.g. currently on Home Depot Hammer Drop, Sears 24 hour bedroom, Naturalizer, etc.
I loathe that auto-link programme...it links to places like reddit forums sometimes.
I think you are referring to the blog one not the auto one Darth mentions, the are likely affiliate links which pay for the site to runQuote:

Thanks FP - that's fine with me, as long as it's not an individual getting credit for posting a link on the blog.
No, boo adds them into our posts, they are not even autolinksQuote:

Thanks to everybody for posting here! I'm yet to leave Target with something without a sticker, thanks to you :) :sweet:
Sorry for the off topic, but I know FallenPixels and Anne are reading this thread for sure :) What happened to the two of you posting on the main page?! Ever since you became the main posters I found more relevant deals, coupons that I would've missed otherwise and tons of useful information. Now there are too many less that average contests, posts missing the fine print and other details and even containing referral links; deals that aren't deals at all, etc. (I remember when Anne posted contests thinking every time they are great for the main page because they will be useful for many). Now too many posts with poor quality.
Please, please, take over the main page back again!!!
Sorry again, I just got overwhelmed going through 2 pages of the blog and not finding anything useful again... I'm sure I'm not the only one to notice that :confused:
I would encourage you to express your opinions to Boo Radley since he runs the show round here :)Quote:

Not sure what is going on but some people's ideas of deals certainly don't correspond to my idea nor many on here I am sure. We are interested in coupons, contests, freebies, not how many $100's of dollars Sears is discounting pot sets or suitcases.
One more thing, it used to be we could comment on the blog and have dialog now I find my comments are being perceived as negative and deleted. Not cool. I think I know a deal when I see one as do MANY others on here.
Carry on with Target deals I have said my peace.
A HAA! I was wondering why they looked so weird when I hovered my mouse over some of them. With not being around here like I used to and contributors I didn't recognize I was getting suspicious lol. OK thank you.Quote:
