THE DEALBRAMBLE PATCH
Good finds. Clear information.
Every published offer must meet these standards.
Look beyond the discount
We consider the product price and practical usefulness of a product. A large reduction from a retailer’s recommended price is not, on its own, evidence of a market-leading deal.
Explain the comparison
When we show a saving, we identify its basis, such as the retailer’s previous price or a like-for-like comparison. We will not call a price an all-time low without supporting price-history evidence.
Keep the details visible
Offers should identify the retailer, product condition and time checked. We check each offer when first posted and do not routinely recheck older listings. After 30 days from posting, listings turn grey; known earlier end dates also mark offers as ended. They stay clickable in their categories until three months after posting, when they leave the website. Offers can change sooner, so confirm details with the retailer. The retailer’s checkout is the final source for the price you pay.
Be clear about our role
We will distinguish editorial research from hands-on testing and clearly identify affiliate links. Any affiliate retailer link is labelled Ad before you click. Purchases through some of our links may support DealBramble at no extra cost to you.
Previous prices and RRPs
“Was” refers to a previous selling price shown by the retailer. “RRP” is a recommended retail price, not evidence that the product previously sold for that amount. We label the comparison and its source so you can judge the saving.
What do the Brambles mean?
Our 1–5 Bramble score is DealBramble’s editorial view of an offer. We consider the price against comparable offers, practical usefulness, the exact product and any conditions. Five Brambles is our hottest rating.
- 5 Brambles: a standout deal in our selection.
- 4 Brambles: a strong deal worth a closer look.
- 3 Brambles: a good, useful find.
- 2 Brambles: fair value with a more limited saving.
- 1 Bramble: a modest saving.
The rating is our judgement, not a customer vote or a hands-on review. A high score does not guarantee the lowest price at every shop. We consider actual prices and usefulness, rather than ranking only by the advertised percentage discount. Scores reflect our assessment when the offer was posted and are not a promise of today’s price.
Today’s best picks bring together selected offers across categories. Older listings remain available in their categories, greyed out and clickable, until three months after first publication. Older or ended offers do not appear in today’s best picks.
