Oh man. There is a ton of stuff going on sale tomorrow. No I can't say what, it's embargoed.
But I have no idea what's the best way to cover this.

They told you prices? What about quantities?

Or is this just PM bait because you're having a slow day?  :P

I hope the quality of the sales are great. To advertise you have more deals than black Friday is no biggy being that BF isn't what it used to be. I'm really hoping to score a good forward facing car seat at a better deal than I would with BBB...

By quantity of deals it's known it will be big, but will all deals be just 20% off or will there be big bargains

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Maybe a separate feed, that people can subscribe to if they want (to get the twitter alerts / rss feed), that's accessible from the main site too.

That way people won't get flooded unless they ask for it.

A few times a day you can do a regular post with the hottest deals right then, and remind ppl to subscribe to the other feed to get all the deals.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

It should just be called Prime Day, but it won't let me change it, a mod will have to do it.

I started a wiki for announced deals.
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

You can ask if anyone thinks it's worth it. Anyone who knows isn't telling you.
