Back in June I mentioned how sick I am of all these Internet “Firesales” where you end up buying all this stuff you don’t need.
You get lured in because they seem like bargains, with 6, 10, 20, or even more products, all thrown together for what seems like a really low price.
But they’re not really bargains when you’ll only ever use, or read, one or two of the things being sold.
So here’s a tip.
Next time you’re tempted by a firesale look up the products on Ebay. With most firesales you can get 80 or 90% of the products for next to nothing.
Examples: Podcast Creator has been offered in tons of firesales this year. On Ebay for just a few dollars.
And quite a few firesales in the past month have been pushing dating books. The same, or very similar ebooks are on Ebay for pennies.
So don’t be a sucker. You know you’re not going to use all the stuff you buy anyway. So resist the hype.
