How are all these PM's found in Hot Deals?

[wanted]

I just wanted to know;
How everyone find these PM's in hot deals.
Were they looking into something they wanted to buy, were comparison shopping and found it cheaper compared to Staples?
Or do they go to other sites and bring it here?
Or do they browse Staples/CC/FS/BB/etc sites and see what they can find?

I'm amazed by this.

Personally, I find them through comparison shopping for what I want to buy. I think some people do actually compare Staples' price to anything on sale in FS/BB flyers..

Yeah pretty much.. just find something on sale elsewhere, then find what Staples sells it for.. and you mostlikely have a pricematch deal.

Oh, thanks for the replies.

I always wondered, if someone wrote a program that would search and find it...I wish there was one :(

There is such a thing... it's called RFD RSS feeds.

isn't that news alerts?

I meant, a program that would search up all these items, and compare prices.

For me it was a few hours of checking staples.ca vs the upcoming BB/FS/Source/CompuSmart/OD flyers and posting the significant results. I used a template for creating the text that I posted here.
