Everyone loves a bargain, and we at getmydeal.co.uk are no different! In fact, we are so good at finding great deals; we’ve gone and set up this site in order to pass on our skills to you so that everyone can share the discount love!
We think that helping out the local community is the most important thing of all; from the small businesses to the very public they serve. We hope you enjoy our weekly deals; frankly, couldn’t we all do with a little help in these austere times?
You may have missed it in the news recently, but apparently there’s a recession on at the moment and no one has any money.
It’s all doom and gloom out there right? Maybe so, but have you ever thought that you could use skills you didn’t even know that you had to give you a monetary boon in these hard times?
You no doubt know your hometown intimately, and of course you know what local businesses deserve your support. Have you ever thought about helping these businesses out by providing them a cheap marketing platform on which to help them through the tough times? You almost definitely haven’t of course! But with getmydeal.co.uk, we are happy to offer you the chance!
Ideally, we are after people that have expertise in sales and can handle the pressure of being their own boss in delivering sales targets. Most importantly however, we want people who are experts on their area of choice! We want you to develop great relationships between local businesses, and to negotiate any deals that they may be interested in. You can read all about GetMyDeal on this blog to get a feel of our organisation to see if it’s right for you.

It’s been a little while since our last blog post at GetMyDeal HQ, so it’s about time we filled you in on what’s been happening in the last few days.
As you can imagine, we have been insanely busy as everything is taking off at a rapid rate! And it seems that the word on the street must be good because we’ve been getting loads of great feedback in such a short space of time!
We’ve been losing sleep trying to refine our website and social media presence so that we can be as easy to use and accessible as possible. We know that you don’t care about all the technical gubbins that we’ve lost sleep over in the last few days; you just want to know how things have improved for you right?
Essentially, we’ve made everything much easier to find, see and buy. When refining by a city, all the deals will be displayed large on one page, rather than having to click through any more annoying menus to see all the available deals. Hover your mouse over ‘View it’ and click on ‘See Detail’ to get taken to the great deal of your choice.
Another handy new feature that we have implemented is the ability to refine what deals that you may be interested in.
This feature is especially handy in when it comes to our national deals, so our top tip for the day is to remind you that you can select ‘National Deals’ from the city dropdown list. When we get larger, this could potentially open up a huge list of deals, so always remember you can narrow your interests using these handy checkboxes!
The new refine search menu
Lastly, we were experiencing major compatibility issues with Internet Explorer, which was displaying our site incorrectly. After some tinkering, we’ve now sorted this problem out, and we believe that the compatibility issues are now sorted. If you are experiencing this unusual problem however, please get in touch with us!
That’s enough time out of our schedule; we’re going to crack on with getting in touch with more local business to get some more great deals!
Here at get my deal towers, we have been working diligently through the night to ensure we have kicked off the site with a bang! Hopefully everything is in its right place and everything will go smoothly! We’ve been testing and testing, and then testing some more everything to make sure we can bring you your great deals with ease and efficiency!
So what’s the ‘hottest’ deal right now?
Stuck for ideas on a Friday night in the Cardiff area? Why not take advantage of a great three course meal for two in the highly acclaimed Spice Merchant in Cardiff Bay at exactly half price?! I certainly wouldn’t say no to that!
Fear not you lover of all things spice! Feeling a bit blue because you live four hundred miles away from Cardiff? How about getting a British Curry Club card then? For only 30 quid, you get to become a fully paid up member for only an entire year! Not sure if you live near a restaurant that’s affiliated with the organisation? Have a look below:

See, no excuses! Check out their website to see how it works in more detail! I think you will agree that’s a pretty phenomenal deal. Over the course of the year, this will pay for itself many, many times over, so it makes perfect sense to get involved!
“Gah! I hate curries” We hear you say? “And I’m having hard time typing out this sentence on my computer” we also hear you say?! Well, perhaps you have loads of conflicting anti-virus’ slowing your computer down? Perhaps you could get rid of all of them, and upgrade to the ultra-low impact Vipre™ anti-virus for an entire year courtesy of ww.t3custompcs.co.uk? You’ll get peace of mind when browsing the web, and you’ll have change from a twenty pound note!
Feeling a bit blue about your body, and your exercise regime doesn’t seem to be working as well as you hoped? If you live near Brighton, we’ve sorted out a deal that can help you get a kick-start with some pretty jazzy new technology. We couldn’t even begin to describe how it works, so check out the video to see how it’s done:

Clever eh?
Anyway, we hope that we’ve found a couple of things that pique your interest at least. This is of course the launch week, so we can only get stronger! We’re working on developing a strong workforce across the country that can provide that strong local knowledge that we are after so that we can keep supporting local businesses!
Nerves jangling…palms sweaty….this is it! www.getmydeal.co.uk is about to make the splash into the big wide world of online commerce.
We’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to launch, and we feel we are now perfectly poised to compete with the best of them. We’re kicking off with a ton of juicy deals for you, which are all nice and varied in terms of locations and content! You’ll be able to fill up on curry on the cheap in Cardiff and then nip down to Brighton to get your teeth whitened the next day! Sweet!
Don’t fear, there’s also a few national deals to get you going too so no one is going to get left out come the big day tomorrow!
So while you’re twiddling your thumbs waiting for the big launch, what else is there for you to do?
Well, you can always sign up to our newsletter. You may be wary of doing this if you’ve ever been bombarded by junk mail from someone (so that should just about cover…all of us!). You may notice however, that you can click on your area and enter your e-mail directly below it. This will ensure you only get offers on national deals and your own area of your interest!
How about referring a friend to get yourself £5 credit into your account? Click on referral, and then get your link out there to whoever you would like to join up with getmydeal.co.uk! All they need to do is sign up and make a purchase and you’ll be accredited with yet more money off your next buy. You can do this as many times as you like!

So here we go, we are only hours away from launching now, so wish us the best! We can’t wait to start sniffing out some real bargains for you!
Here’s the inevitable update today to let you know about a few housekeeping bits and pieces that we’ve done here at getmydeal.co.uk.
This is of course the age of information, so we’ve taken the natural step to get stuck in with a few social media sites, so we guess the done thing is to give out a couple of links. So, without further ado, here is our facebook page, and our twitter page.
These should keep you informed of the latest deals as they happen, so it’s in your best interests to follow, tweet, subscribe, converse and engage. Social media is here, and it’s here to stay, so you may as well keep abreast of any news on bargain deals whilst you’re half stalking that guy you used to be in the same class as years ago. . .
We’d love to hear from you, so get involved and spread the message!
Here at getmydeal.co.uk, you will find a whole host of weekly, as opposed to daily deals. We believe that everyone should get a fair chance to claim a deal, as you will often find that daily deals will be snapped up, often before you can get a chance to go on the internet.
We try not to put any pressure on you to use our site; you have probably already noticed that there is no auto-sign in or mandatory newsletter sign-ups. This is so you can browse at your leisure to see what great bargains are available in your area. We will try and keep it as local as possible, but if you get lucky, we might have a great offer on a national scale, so you shouldn’t be short of a deal or two for too long at any one time.
The way we are operating, we are trying our utmost to provide a perfect balance between providing care for the merchant and the consumer. We believe that aggressive price slashing techniques that are used to get the maximum amount of people through the door doesn’t benefit anyone:- The merchant will make little money, and the customer is likely to have poor service. We aim to counteract this by offering realistic offers that benefits both parties.
As you may have gathered, we are a rather ethical company. One of the reasons we started was we have noticed some rather unscrupulous behaviour, and instead of putting up with it we have decided to combat this head on. Let us explain, often a deals percentage is judged by its RRP. If that recommended price is taken at its highest value from the manufacturer, and the product is widely available elsewhere for considerably cheaper, then that deal that was offering 60% off is not looking so sweet now is it?
No, what we do, is we use our skilled, trained salespeople to research the offers to its fullest. If they don’t benefit you, then we are not going to offer it. It’s as simple as that.
Hopefully we have reassured you of our intentions, ethos and practices. The next step is to have a go on the site, click around, and take a look if there’s anything that takes your fancy. You never know, those flowers she’s been pestering you to give her for ages may just turn up at rock bottom prices! Win win!
