I just realized that this discount code would be a great way to save even more on DiscountTires' 4 tires for $100 gc deal

Edit: Looks like the discount tire direct deal is an ebay code, pretty sure you won't be able to use both.

Edit2: Ended up buying things that I really needed, like an oil filter socket and some trim pry tools. Ordered on ebay.com, and the code worked.

Anyone with a gmail address you can use the dot trick. Whey signing up for a new account on ebay just put a dot anywhere in your user name. Ebay will think it's a new address but gmail ignores the . .

Like this

Joe.blow@gmail.com

Joeb.low@gmail.com

Joeb.l.ow@gmail.com

J.o.e.blow@gmail.com


Ebay thinks they are all new addresses.
I assume it's checking my IP

I've done that so many times lol I thought about it but there are several issues...

One, paying in Canadian dollars, you lose out a lot on the exchange

Plus you have to then pay tax

Plus Ebay has more fees when shipping to Canada, on top of the actual shipping fee

Then you have to ship it FROM Canada to me, which is very expensive (Canada Post super expensive, plus tax again plus Canadian currency again)

By then I'd be WAY out of the $100 coupon savings

Plus buying on ebay adds an extra layer of potential issues, if something goes wrong with the item, etc...

I was planning on waiting for months anyway, so I can go back to waiting

Was going to buy a portable Weller soldering iron that I needed for some stuff and had it in my cart ready to buy then I got distracted by something else and the code expired 13 minutes ago.

Was frantically looking to buy something until I snapped out of it and realize I don't need any more clutter.

It really depends on what you're looking for. Cheaper on Amazon Prime on certain items, but also cheaper on Ebay for others.

At the same time, eBay’s running a 20% coupon on home goods from select sellers with promo code PRETTYDAY, most notably the Dyson eBay outlet.
Ebay T&C:
Quote:
This Coupon is a 20% discount valid from 6:00 AM PST March 20, 2018 until 8:00 AM PST on March 26, 2018. Discount applies to the purchase price (excluding shipping, handling, and taxes) of an eligible item(s) of $25 or more on eBay.com, ebay.ca, or cafr.ebay.ca. Eligible items are items(s) purchased from the sellers listed below. The discount will be applied to eligible item(s) only and will be capped at a value of $50.
Jalopnik recommends to just pick anything and use the PRETTYDAY code first, then if it doesn''t work use PSPRINGTIME

A set of Conti ECS costs only $302 USD after $50 off

Same tire in 205/50R15 is like $150+/tire pre-tax

perfect time to get that dyson vacuum for my house. Anyone order one off ebay before? Can anyone recommend a good model? Leaning towards the full model rather than the handheld battery cordless one.
Looking at these 2
