About Slickdeals

Slickdeals is a deal-sharing community that has been running since 1999. Members post bargains they find at online and physical stores, and other members vote and comment on them, so the best-rated deals rise to the Frontpage while weak or expired ones get flagged. Beyond the main feed, the site has forums for categories like tech, freebies and credit cards, coupon listings for stores, and customisable deal alerts that notify you by email or in the app when a matching deal appears. There is also a browser extension that shows price history and deals while you shop. Slickdeals is free to use and earns money from affiliate links and advertising. It suits shoppers in the US who want human-vetted deals rather than automated coupon codes. Comments can be noisy, some deals sell out within minutes, and the focus is heavily on US retailers.

Best for: US shoppers who want community-checked deals and alerts for specific products.
