I love “daily deal” sites. I remember when my daughter was small and we were newly connected to the internet, I found a site that offered deep discounts on a variety of products. We did a lot of our shopping for her Christmas gifts there. I was reminded of this when I read about NoMoreRack on a Mommy blog today.
I went to nomorerack.com and checked it out. You do have to give an email address in order to look at the offerings there, but I must say I was impressed by the very first "daily deal" I saw! Just to be sure, since I hadn’t bought the exact item number, I compared it to some well-known online discount sites (overstock.com and amazon.com) and found the prices to be about 30% cheaper at nomorerack.
When I did a little poking around, I found something even more amazing, though I didn’t catch one while I was there. They also offer “insanity deals” in addition to their daily deals, and the prices really are insane! Would you pay $26.54 for a Playstation 3? (I sure would!) How about a Sony 52” HDTV for only $59.96? Amazing! Electronics aren’t the only products offered in the insanity deals – you can also find Prada, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton for 95% off! These special deals are limited though, and while nomorerack promises to have at least 30 of each item available, they can sell out quickly, so I’d recommend setting up a payment profile there right away in order to snatch up those insane deals before they get away if you happen to see one.
Shipping is always an issue when ordering online, and part of being a savvy shopper is to make sure that you aren’t overpaying when shipping costs are included. We've all seen websites that offer what looks like a great deal, but then they gouge you with shipping charges. Nomorerack charges a flat $2 shipping fee per item, making it one of the most affordable sites as far as shipping costs are concerned.
There are a few other little tidbits. One of the most interesting is that you can get “friend deals” just for sharing the site with friends. All your friends have to do is visit the site and sign up; they don't have to buy anything, and you can receive merchandise completely free. Another thing that I particularly liked is that they include a “charity deal” that will donate to a worthy cause when purchased.
I love running across sites like this, and I enjoy even more sharing them with my readers. So head on over and check out nomorerack.com, maybe you’ll get lucky and run across an insanity deal!
