Announcement: Slickdeals Deal Posting Contest (Starts December 26, 2023)

+26 Deal Score
34,293 Views
Dear Slickdeals community members:

Holiday shopping is undeniably stressful, with the pressure to find the perfect gift for loved ones, the ideal white elephant gift for family gatherings, your boss's favorite budget-friendly beverage, or a thoughtful donation to brighten someone else's holiday. That's why many prefer stress-free shopping for themselves in the week after the holidays, taking advantage of clearance sales.

Here at Slickdeals we want to make this "me shopping" time sweeter. As you shop for yourself, and find deals that excite you - keep in mind that there are probably hundreds of people just like you that are looking to get some much needed retail therapy and wind down for the year, and now sharing this deal gives you a good chance to score some extra bonus for yourself. If you have never posted a deal, take a look at this article or this video [youtube.com] for some tips.

For the period of 12:00 a.m. PT December 26, 2023 through 11:59 p.m. PT January 2, 2024 we are going to run a contest. All it takes is for you to post a deal into our Hot Deals Community and you will have a chance to win multiple prizes:
  • Any Deal Prize: 5 Random deal posters whose deals did not reach Popular or Frontpage status each day $25 Amazon gift card
  • Popular Deal Prize: 5 Random deal posters each day $50 Amazon gift card for deals that reach Popular status, but do not reach Frontpage
  • Frontpage Deal Prize: Top 5 deal posters by net vote score each day $100 Amazon gift card for deals that reach Frontpage status
  • Grand Prize: 5 Random deal posters that reach Frontpage status during the total period between 12:00 a.m. PT December 26, 2023 and 11:59 p.m. PT January 2, 2024 $500 in Amazon gift card
So go ahead, log in with your Slickdeals account (or register for one if you haven't), start shopping for yourself, share with the community, and, hopefully, win something extra for yourself.

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW. Contest only open to legal residents of the 50 U.S. and D.C. (excl. NY and FL), 18 years and older. Contest begins on or about 12:00 a.m. PT on December 26, 2023 and ends at 11:59 p.m. PT on January 2, 2024; provided, however, that the contest is divided into nine entry periods. Subject to full Official Rules. Sponsor: Slickdeals, LLC, 6010 S Durango Dr, Suite 100, Las Vegas, NV, 89113.

Post a deal to enter!
