Luci doing a grand job posting the offers thanks, I prefer seeing them all seperate

December ( including Xmas and New Year )

Luci hun whatever way you post is just fine by me. I think you find and post some really great deals and info.:T

I'm fine with seeing them all, but I think what we could do with is a system like what used to be on Fat Wallet where the first page was always updated. Maybe Stoneman thought they were copied elsewhere as quite often you post deals that have been "out there" for quite some time.

Given that the thread is 239 pages long so far, I wouldn't worry too much about bandwidth. 239 pages, and probably 230 pages of "worthless" posts that are either now out of date, or didn't contain anything of worth in the first place.

The offers I post are ones that I have received in the past few days by email. I usually post then the same day I receive them. I very very rarely post offers found on other websites.

However the Signature BST10 may be one that you mean. I have posted that one at least twice before, but I got another email about it yesterday and re-posted it in case anyone missed it the first time as it was a few weeks ago.

Maybe trets might have a suggestion of a better way of doing them.

Didn't realise that Venetian standard rate included breakfast. So they really offer standard rate of $90 a night including that?
Must say that we are looking for somewhere new to try in May,

No its not standard - the deal posted (probably by Luci!!!!) a couple of weeks ago was something like $109 including daily breakfast, plus the usual 20% off the pricey house restaurants etc.

I also think it would be better if all the offers were on the first page as per Fatwallet, but of course it would need somene to "do it"

I think that most if not all the friends and family offers can be found by the one Harrahs link Vegas from $25 a night

http://www.harrahs.com/vegasvacation/

Would any new people to this thread really search through all the pages looking for the offers?

Having said that if Luci hadnt posted the MGM twitter deals I wouldnt have a suite for $55

How about something like this........we kick off with a "heres all the current deals" post grouping all the same hotel deals together.....something like this........

......and then whenever theres a new deal to be posted, copy and paste the previous "deal post" and add the new deal to it......and tidy up old/expired deals at the same time. Everyone can then add to the same "deal post", and if a newbie posts outside of this post, a regular could update the "deal post". Deals only to go into the "deal post", NO CHITTER CHATTER!!!

Thoughts?

They all come by email so I can't link to them.

If I put them all in one post then it would be one massive post.

stoneman, you could put me on Ignore and then you wouldn't see my posts and save you scrolling. That might be a solution?

Would members prefer the offers all in one post or individually? Opinions please.

Just a very quick thought, how much hassle would it be to put them into a Google doc (Spreadsheet) that everyone could view through one link ?

It doesn't bother me either way and you should continue doing what's easiest for you - it is very much appreciated on here I'm sure. I just thought that if it was all done through one link you could use the same link for the HT forum too, which would save you some time there.

So like this.........Ive added in another Vdara deal. One thing to watch out for......copying and pasting shortened links doesnt work......any ideas?

Froggitt

Maybe highlighting the new deal just added in BOLD or referring to it at the top of the deal post eg New vdara deal just added
