In an online environment when it comes to snagging up the best deals I am kind of surprised that a lot of people don’t do this. Unlike a traditional retail store where you have to line up for hours in hopes to get the best deals, in an online environment it’s more about who is the most prepared and knows exactly what they want. A lot of online stores require you to create an account with them first and at the same time you need to be logged in to make a purchase. During a big sales event though that time you take to login can easily cause you to lose the deal to someone else.
That’s why if you are specifically looking to buy a good deal on any site you should have all of this setup ahead of time. Especially during busy times like these the servers usually get crushed with all the traffic where it takes forever for one screen to load. If you still have to do all the registration or login details during this time most likely someone else has already placed the item into the checkout. Again, I am surprised everyone doesn’t do that if they were eyeing something to buy. It sure beats the need to camp out at a store for hours.
