I've been on holiday for most of September so here are 2 months of stats for you. I finally got to use some of the bargains on our Singapore site (CheapCheapLah), found some more Booking.com deals from HUKD's French site Deal Labs and got to grab a coffee with the team at UK bargain site HotUKDeals.
Three 1000+ voted deals recently:
- Most popular deal ever: 18% off eBay 2557+
- Free 250g Block of Mainland Tasty Cheese @ Woolworths
- Comm Bank dropping ATM charges.
If you thought there were a lot of Gearbest posts, you aren't seeing things. The store had 130 deals posted in September with Amazon 2nd at 56. In August, 53 Gearbest deals were posted. Other than them offering cheap deals, it seems everyone has figured out that you can ask the rep for a cheap deal which members are happy to pass on to others. Having a look at bargain sites around the world, you'll see Gearbest's cheap deals on their front pages as well. Let's see how long they can keep it up as Dealextreme managed to do a few years ago.
Additionally, OzBargain went viral in the Arabic world which has brought many new users from Morocco and nearby places. Google Translation:
after publishing the post found that the source of the site ozbargain, which after I search for and browse I found that it is an Australian site where users are attracted to offers of paid programs to download free of charge through activation surrogates legally. Also, there are vouchers, discounts and many things you will find in this site that is very important for every user who likes junkies
So if you see some odd Zapals or Gearbest posts (like this one) from new users, this may be the reason. As of posting we already have 2917 new users in October which is ontrack to be the biggest new monthly member drive ever. There ya go, freebies bringing nations together.
Next month it's our 11th birthday and we're going to have some meetups to giveaway some t-shirts. Stay tuned.

first in line who posted the deal of the month, Free Gym Towel from Cetaphil. It was so popular that Cetaphil has to email us to pull the post down. Not sure how many people actually will receive the towel though.
nocure who again posted the most deals last month — 68 deals & average +48.8 votes, 34 of them got onto the front page, and the most popular being 10% off eBay with $75+ spend.

September 2017
Winners from last month:
Thespottedcow for posting the deal of the month as well as the most voted deal so far, eBay 18% off Site Wide that also almost killed OzBargain. Right now it had +2,551 votes, 27,343 click throughs and almost 1,000 comments. It got to the OzBargain front home in 4 minutes 50 seconds, and reached +100 votes in less than 13 minutes. The record would be difficult to beat. 20% off eBay site-wide perhaps?
gnv9 won again for her contribution to the competitions, including the most clicked comp. She also posted 422 competitions last month (7 were in the top 10). gnv9 also happened to post the 2nd most voted deal last month. Thanks for the cheese!
nocure for posting the most number of deals in September. He posted 53 of them with +60.1 vote average, most popular being ½ Price Connoisseur Ice Cream Tubs 1L $5 @ Woolworths.
Willy Orwontee for posting a useful comment. Many popular comments are often up-voted because others agree with humorous remarks, but many aren't actually helpful. Willy Orwontee posted this useful comment sharing the search link for the eBay selected-store sale and was 3rd most voted comment last month (behind this and this). Yup. Do vote the comments that you agree/disagree with, but please also up-vote those comments that are actually useful/helpful.
