I didn't see anything in the FAQ.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to do this? I would like to search posts for items that are strictly FAR. However nothing is returned because 'far' is a common word and disqualified. Also, for those that don't like rebates, how could you include something like -(AR) to narrow the search? Thanks for any help, T. :wave:

You can do a tag search for free after rebate (http://beta.slickdeals.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?tag=free+after+rebate&f=9), rebate (http://beta.slickdeals.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?tag=rebate&f=9) or far (http://beta.slickdeals.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?tag=free+after+rebate&f=9). The tag search box is located near the bottom of most forums (Hot Deals, Freebies, etc). The system will only be as good as what users' decide to tag the threads with.

There isn't a way to exclude tags at the moment.

Thanks Mr Slickdeals, I was just thinking about asking a question concerning searching tags and excluding tags. You hit the spot!

Are there plans for tag exclusion/combinations? (eg, "bestbuy" AND "drives" NOT "usb")
