What is a Bargain Hunt?

Bargain Hunt or Hunting is best defined as an art form or a means of acquiring items at less or discounted prices in comparison to their regular sale price. This is great as it is an excellent way to save money that can other wise use. For example why pay $50 when you can get the same item at a discounted price of $30 or add a few more items and get free shipping in which cases where paying for shipping would be more expensive than the additional items and a portion of the buying price.

Why Bargain Hunt?

There are many reason other than the obvious :

Debunking the Myth that there are no true bargains around!

Some people believe that there are always some catch to all promotional offers and in most cases there are but you can twist these to your advantage. And there are bargains passing you all the time and you just do not know it as yet. Keeping informed is the most important tool that you have in your arsenal and you should use this to your advantage in pouncing on unsuspecting deals, thus snatching them up before other shoppers can.

As a classic example last December for the Black Friday, Christmas and Cyber Monday I was able to figure out from very early one of the main items that would be on special for the period at heavily discounted prices. The item in question was a Asus Touch screen Laptop that was retailing for $269 when I bought it months before any one or even before it was highlighted in any way and there it was sitting at a draw dropping price and it gets better. Did I know that this would be a holiday special of course not I definitely did not have the inside scoop but I decided to give my YouTube viewers this incredible deal and they were so glad.

See some of the comment for yourself from that period:

 

So as you can see from just a few of the comments my Subscribers were given early pickings on a deal I found for an Overly under priced touch screen laptop and I find these deals regularly might I add. Trust me these prices are unheard of for any laptop especially a touch screen in this case, in total I counted that I helped to sell about 50 plus of these Laptops.
