Special Offers/Deals etc Forum

[Spirit]

Not really sure if there is enough need for this, but thought it would be an idea.

Recently there have been a few threads with special deals on non-car related offers/deals.

EG:

Keychain video camera under £10: http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=48381
HP Netbook for £206: http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=48586
Plasma TV Offers: http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=48629

How about a forum where members can post a thread about deals they have seen around on the web, on TV etc for anything they may think will be of interest to other members, or can save them money ? Could be holidays, discount codes, anything infact.

Would just be another service we can offer to the members.

Sounds like a bloody good idea to me.

Seconded!

Maybe it could just be a sub-forum in the Priory or something ?

[John TheAntique]

Great idea, I love looking at special deals I can't quite afford.

Money Saving Expert .com? :D


Seems like a reasonable enough idea to me. Time to discuss.

:iagree:

[BraindG]

or add "Deals:" in title within the FS forum?

There was a hack that allowed you to specify a forum, then specify predefined Categories for threads title..

i.e. FS, WTB - so when creating a new thread you would select one of those definistions and it would insert it into the thread title automatically - then on the forum main page you could filter based on those definitions.

Any update committee peeps ?

[Davezj]

would this be the place for peole to post up the "saw this on ebay, anyone interested" thread.

there seem to be more and more of these type of therad poping up all the time.

would be nice to see them in one place.

:bump:

[Spirit]

Sorry committee people, but with so many of you online most days now I would have to say it's a little annoying/rude that not one of you has even bothered to respond to a request for an update on this (7 days ago and a bump a few days ago).......even if it was a "no" !

[Nutter_John]

nothing to see here move along please the bus will be departing soon

[The Vee]

Uh? is that not rather an odd reply Mr NJ - or have I missed the bus

[Nutter_John]

no I was pushing people away whilst the committee thread got bumped :D

[The Vee]

So the bus is late then - damn it!

[Turbo_Steve]

Nah, the bus is being remapped after someone found out it had a 7201 processor.....

[elnevio]

This is currently being looked at, along with a large variety of other matters. Watch this, and other, spaces! :)

[Spirit]

Thanks for the updates peeps

[Turbo_Steve]

:D Good suggestion - now implemented. A "Shared Wealth" forum has been created under the UK Marketplace. AiThangYoo.

[Spirit]

Excellent news Steve :2thumbsup

Sorry it took a while, dude: I've had to learn a couple of bits regarding thread views and pruning (or lack of it) in this version of VBulletin :)
