I love it when new items appear on DealDash. It’s always exciting to find fresh new deals and even more exciting when you have the opportunity to win them on a DealDash auction for just pennies of their retail value price. Two more just added to the auction roster are plush comfy robes and attractive leather belts. Let’s take a look.

Plush Robes – Made of 100% cotton terry velour, these gorgeous robes come in a white and charcoal gray color in sizes ranging from small to extra extra large. Whether you’re indulging in sheer comfort and softness after a swim or a relaxing bath, stepping into these robes will simply have you wrapped in comfort any time you’re wearing it. These robes are unisex so check out the description and follow the sizing chart to find the right size robe for you.

Men’s Leather Belts – These stylish and attractive belts are made of genuine cow leather with an alloyed zinc buckle with a polished chrome finish. The belt comes in black in eight sizes ranging from 32 to 46. Everyone will want to know where you got this classy belt. Using your waist size in inches, check the sizing chart within the item description to find the right size belt.

There you have it—just two of the newest items you can find on DealDash! Be sure to keep up with new items by checking out the Browse categories section just under the banner on the main page and then clicking on New items from the dropdown menu.

We would like to take a minute to thank everyone who participated on our 6th of December Special to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Finnish Independence! With your help, we were able to contribute to the local communities of Finland, and donate $9,819.44 to the Mannerheim League for Child Welfare!

To celebrate the 100th anniversary of Finland, DealDash decided to donate all proceeds from auction wins paid on December 6th, 2017. Many of you paid for your auction wins on that date, and thanks to all of you we were able to collect $9,819.44 for the donation!

DealDash has offices in Helsinki, Finland, and Minnesota, USA, and wants to contribute to the local communities. That is why, on special occasions, DealDash donates the final auction sales prices to various charities, that are important locally, both in the US and Finland. For example, on September 10th 2017, DealDash donated $8,900 to the American Red Cross relief fund to help people affected by hurricane Irma.

We appreciate the help of everyone who took part and helped us support the Mannerheim League for Child Welfare.

THANK YOU!

The DealDash Team.

Today, December 6th 2017, is a very special day for the country of Finland. They are celebrating their 100th anniversary as an independent country. Finns achieved independence on December 6, 1917. The country celebrates its 100th year with multiple events in Finland and all around the world.

The theme for the celebratory year is “Together,” showing that everyone – Finns and friends of Finns – is welcome to take part, just as creating and building the nation were joint efforts.

The DealDash team wants to get behind this great celebration. With your help, we aim to show our support to those who need it the most in the country on Finland. We will donate all auction wins paid on December 6th 2017 to the Mannerheim League for Child Welfare.

The Mannerheim League is the largest child welfare organization in Finland. They promote the wellbeing of children and of families with children, increases respect for childhood and seeks to make it more visible, and sees that children’s views are taken into account in public decision-making.

Thanks for being a part of this celebration. By paying for your auction wins today, you will help children all over Finland!

 Before we know it, the holiday season will be just a blur in our rearview mirrors and a new year will be upon us. In the new year, I’ve decided to take a look at my past year and make a few new DealDash resolutions. Take a look at how I’m re-vamping my DealDash style in 2018:

1. Implementing new strategies – This one is difficult for most of us, myself included. I have a certain way that I bid and I am comfortable with that. In 2018, I’m making the resolution to try new strategies like: trying a different day and time, bidding mid-auction, or heaven forbid—late auction! You never know what will work and when. You just have to give it a try.

2. Standing strong – Experienced bidders can be very intimidating but statistics show they don’t win all the auctions they bid on. Are there a few that seem to? Yes. Here’s the thing: More times than I can recall I have seen experienced bidders jump into an auction late and I will exit the auction almost immediately because the chances of me winning against a big bidder are usually slim to none. However, I have also watched these experienced bidders then mysteriously pop back out of the auction after just a few bids, and the other person wins. Silly me—I should have stayed in the auction and not been so intimidated. Lesson learned. I won’t be as intimidated in 2018.

3. Investing more bids – No one likes to spend a ton of bids because bids cost money. I try to limit myself to a certain number of bids on each auction, depending on the value and popularity of the item. In 2018, I’m going to go a little bit further and see if increasing my bids results in more wins.

4. Sticking to the No. 1 Rule – Only bidding on things you really want to win is the No. 1 rule at DealDash (other than always using BidBuddy, that is). It’s hard to do because it’s always nice to win an item to exchange to bids and have more bids in your bank. But what if your investment in winning items to get more bids fails and you waste your bids and then don’t have the bids you need to win the items you really want? That is a bummer and I’ve done it myself. But in 2018, I’m really making an effort to stick to things I really want to win 80 percent of the time.

5. Shake things up– I have found that it is true with me and others that we are creatures of habit. We stick to the same categories and don’t deviate much from our “norm.” If we have success with bidding on items from the jewelry category, that is where we tend to stay. You will find by watching other bidders that they also tend to stick to similar categories: bid packs, handmade bags and the like. In 2018, I’m breaking out of my norm and trying my hand at other categories I have yet to try.

6. Preparing for the holidays earlier – This year I’m starting in January. That’s right. By October 2018, I will have effectively stocked all the Christmas gifts I want in the closet by winning a few bids a month and putting those items away for holiday gift giving. The early bird gets the DealDash stash.

I hope you have some great DealDash resolutions of your own for 2018 and hope you are wildly successful in your auction bids.
