SERVING THE ON-LINE RPI COMMUNITY SINCE 1994 SEARCH ARCHIVES Current Issue: Volume 130, Number 1 July 14, 2009 Features Internet provides good opportunities for shopping Posted 01-26-2005 at 5:50PM Dan Leyzberg Staff Reporter Skip to Introduction Froogle.com Epinions.com Half.com SlickDeals.net SlickDeals.net I consider this site as much an entertainment site as a serious shopping tool. It is simply a list of particularly good deals on the internet, as posted by users of the website. The list is updated every few hours, and most deals quickly expire (usually within a few days, though sometimes in only a few hours). The deals range from inexpensive hard drives (often with mail-in rebates) to a good deal on a specific digital camera. They even list free magazine subscriptions when they become available online, though most of the deals are technology-related. Checking SlickDeals.net fairly regularly has become an online habit of mine that has occasionally paid off very richly. However, this site isn’t for the shopper that has a specific item in mind. « Back Posted 01-26-2005 at 5:50PM Copyright 2000-2006 The Polytechnic Comments, questions? E-mail the Webmaster.
