>If you were in the market for a pair of Rancourts, wouldn't you be ecstatic to find them for almost $100 off? Here's what I wrote in a different comment earlier tonight. How many times have you read someone joke about how their bank account is being bled dry by all the good deals? There's obviously an element of truth there, and in my opinion, ""I can't afford all these deals"" and ""I'd never pay that much for something"" are both from folks who are **using FMF in absolutely the wrong way.**īut there *is* a right way to use FMF, and I'd argue that its the only truly frugal way. Don't read the sub seeing what deals you could get - rather, decide what you want/need to buy first, then watch FMF for sales, deals and/or promotions on that. >Honestly, it sounds like you're using FMF in the least frugal way possible. >""I just subscribed and can't seem to be able to afford most of these deals :(""

The general sentiment I'm getting is that most people don't like the posts I was talking about. I'm glad people got a deal thrifting (I've got a pair of Allen Edmonds that testify to the perks of thrifting), but it doesn't do the community any good to make a post bragging about it.ĮDIT: Well this blew up a bit.

So I guess this is a request to the mods and the community as a whole: lets stop the karmawhoring and actually share deals with members of the community. Instead it's about sharing deals with the community. I'm happy that folks have found good stuff and thrifting is definitely a frugal option, but this subreddit isn't about flaunting what you bought at a frugal price. That being said, there's been a pretty noticeable uptick in ""OMG look what I found at a thrift store!"" posts recently and that does nobody on this subreddit any good. I've found some of the best deals through it, and this subreddit exists, at least I believe it exists, to help people find good deals on fashion. Any way we could do something similar here? I don't want to make a bunch more work for the mods or anything, but since I visit this subreddit a few times a week, it would be nice to just glance at the deals.Įither that, or what is a better website I can frequent that only lists deals?",False,self,t5_2s8e9,False,True,t3_1923ml,ġ351142346.0,507,ugalmalefashion,121vh1, Can we please stop posting or can mods delete threads on thrifting finds?,682,175,71,"Hi FMF, At the time of me posting this, the front page (25 topics) has two Groupon deals, three actual deals (although limited, but I know things don't go on sale every day), and 20 topics asking for help.Īnother subreddit I frequent, /r/nba, puts all gamethreads in green.
