Thanks a million @Dan & @jj1000 was a lot of fun ! My favorite part is reading the recaps and hearing the two of you discuss all the good stuff from over the years, really fun memories.
I enclosed a screenshot of a typical Amazon order for household necessities not only have I saved thousands over the the years but also really enjoyed the ride along the way which I totally give you guys credit for, wishing both of you a very Happy Birthday!!

The only difference between a good day and a bad day is your attitude(:

גא״מ להנ״ל. We are impacted by DD's work (I should really call it culture) literally every single day. From savvy shopping to smart travel to earning valuable points to building best credit and everything in-between. And did I mention becoming your family and friend's maven and advisor for everything of the above? Perhaps that's the side effect...

With Benny on staff, why would any DD hero be unsung?

Reading that post was so much fun. Literally going down memory lane.
From the seminar in CH in 2014 were I was as noobie as they come. Just sitting there blown away how Dan took his whole family in first class and the multi browser method.
To the free stuff from toys R us, the designer deal that i missed  :(
Free trampoline (got a few, still have one sitting ;D)
Its been a fun ride to stay the least. And like @EliJelly mentioned becoming the deal/travel ambassador to freinds and family.

Thanks @jj1000 @Dan for the amazing giveaways and a kosher platform that i can call a hobby (addiction ;)) that i can spend hours a day on. l'chaim to the next 20 years!
Happy birthday.

omehow third cousins and great aunts remember to know me only when they are booking vacations ;D
...or when they're applying for a CC, or buying a car, or looking for a new cell phone plan.

Somehow people just call about stuff once they know you're into these things.

Curios to know how many of the winners were DDF members.

Proud winner BH of one of the secret giveaways! Thank you @Dan and @jj1000

@jj1000 just thought of an idea. You know how the lottery has prizes for the store the ticket was sold in? Maybe you should offer a small incentive if the winner followed through on someone’s  link. It may incentivize people to try harder than just another entry. Just my thoughts

I entered yesterday, but didn't generate a link to share.
How can I still get a link to share?
