how doyou find these bargains? do you just put in random games into paid peanuts all day? you wouldnt happen to be nightswimmer on hotukdeals would you? or is he/she just nicking your deals?
I've got quite a few sources I collect from. hotukdeals being one of them. I'm not nightswimmer, but I do have an account there, also under the name of LewieP. I used to post deals a lot there, but these days I just skim the front page. I really dislike the community there, pretty much any post about a game turns into an immature argument about the merits of the respective format, and so many people buy like 10x copies of the really cheap games to resell for profit, which is pretty horrible since all that does is prevent more gamers from getting access to it.
I also have a few contacts at various retailers who regularly email about specific good deals they have on.
Basically, there won't (generally) be any deals posted at SavyGamer that you can't find elsewhere, but the idea is that instead of having hundreds of people spends up to an hour every day looking around the entire internet for the best deals, and filtering out the bad ones, I do that for you, so you can just spend 5 minutes every day looking, and still ge tthe best deals.
I don't know if nightswimmer is 'nicking' my deals, but even if he/she is, I have no problem with it. Anything that gets the word out there to more people is fine by me, and it's not like I can really have any claim over a deal that a retailer is publicly broadcasting.
