Topic Wiki

HTs have been last updated on 9/6/23

Q: I had deals posted to the main site, why do I have a zero?

A: It's not updated automatically, post a link to your deal on the forum(*), the DDMS link, and the number HT it should be and Dan will update it.

(*)If your HT is already in the DDMS post there's no need to link to the forum thread.

Hat tips are not awarded for:
-Amazon "Deal of the Day".
-B&H deal zone.
-Discountmags sales
-Credit card deals.
-Deals that are only part of a roundup.
-Deals that were posted as part of a master thread when they belong in a new thread.
-Deals posted in the following boards: SH, GD, TT, TDR, JS, or GFST.
-Deals that are posted with a thread title that doesn't spell out the full deal
-Back in stock/alive again updates within 3 months of the last update
-Deals posted more than 3 months after a forum post
-Updates to old post.
-Recurring sales such as 7/11 slurpee day, Rita's 1st day of spring, Nordstrom Anniversary, half yearly or seasonal sales, Flying Blue Promos, IHG Pointsbreaks, etc

Limit of 1 HT Per DDMS Post Per User.   

HT has always gone to who told me or posted first.
That includes but not limited to DDF, DDMS Comments, Facebook & E-mail.

There is no need to bump a request if it was made after the last updated date in this Wiki.

New Bump Rule: A bump counts if it's been 3 months since last post. Same applies for DDF, if someone posted it within the past 3 months they get the HT.

@jj1000
I posted this deal on November 26 on DDF for the exact same price with code (see post below) I don't know why you didn't post to DDMS at the time, however it's the same deal. Totes put a new code online in Dec.

Also @Dan kindly advise on this as well and update the HT's. Thanks

A different code is a different deal. For example if someone posts a 20% off code for groupon a month ago, they don't get a ht if we post a different 20% off code this week...

This was the exact same deal. And as with many deals i was wondering why this isn't being posted on DDMS.

The code is different, so it's not the same deal.

I never got my HT for $5 Off $20+ Book Orders From Amazon! Roundup Of The Most Popular Books And More! which posted November 26, 2018 6:04 pm.

I posted it here on November 22, 2018, 02:20:52 AM

HT went to Davidthebest who posted a different code back in July :(
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
