Best Sites Like Slickdeals for Finding Deals

Slickdeals is a community where shoppers post and vote on deals. It’s one of the biggest deal sites around, but it isn’t the only option. Some alternatives are better for editors’ picks, some for tracking a single product, and some for used items that never appear on retail deal sites.

Here are eight worth trying.

Retail deal sites

DealNews

DealNews is the closest match to Slickdeals. The main difference is that editors choose the deals instead of a community vote. That means less noise, though sometimes fewer surprises.

Ben’s Bargains

Ben’s Bargains has been posting deals for years, and it’s particularly useful for electronics and computer gear.

Brad’s Deals

Brad’s Deals is a good choice if Slickdeals feels overwhelming. Its team picks a smaller set of deals across retail categories.

Woot

Woot, owned by Amazon, sells discounted items in limited-time events. It’s a shop rather than a deal aggregator, so you buy from it directly.

Hip2Save

Hip2Save focuses on household shopping, including groceries, kids’ items, and everyday savings. It’s a good fit for families.

Tools for tracking prices

CamelCamelCamel

If you want one specific product, a deal site might never post it. CamelCamelCamel shows Amazon price history and can alert you when a price drops, so you know whether a sale is real.

Reddit deal communities

Reddit has communities for specific interests, such as PC parts and video games. Posts are often niche, and comments quickly call out bad deals.

For secondhand deals

Flipify

Slickdeals and its alternatives focus on new products from retailers. The steepest discounts often come from people selling used items, and those never appear on retail deal sites.

Flipify watches Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, eBay, OfferUp, Mercari, Vinted, Kijiji, and Gumtree. You save a search, and it sends a push notification when a matching listing appears. It’s built for flippers and bargain hunters who want a specific used item.

Full disclosure: Flipify is our app, and it’s paid. If you only want retail discounts, the free sites above will suit you better.
