Hi, new member as of today...just wondered if there was a way to subscribe or be notified when a new deal is posted on the front of the home page?
Thanks,
Augster :hug:

the only way is to use the rss feed. there isn't a newsletter or anything to subscribe to (that works that is)

Thanks, but I'm not sure what a "RSS feed" means?

don't have anything that actually uses it, so i don't know what exactly happens. basically every time a deal on the front page is posted its sent through the rss feed. you need a program that reads that feed, like trillian pro and it will give you the deal. a memeber created this slickalerts program that uses it but i can't seem to find it.
while searching for the program, found this thread on the rss and xml feed.
