Community guidelines

Last updated February 2026

Penny Deals only works if the deals are real and the reports are honest. These are the rules we moderate against.

Post deals that help people

Include the store, the product name, the real current price and the regular price, and a link or a clear location. Photos of the shelf tag or receipt make verification far faster. If a deal is regional or a single-store clearance, say so.

Be accurate

No invented prices, no stale deals reposted as new, no exaggerated discounts, and no reposting someone else's find as your own with a changed link. Repeat inaccuracy costs you submission privileges.

No self-promotion or referral stuffing

Do not add your own affiliate or referral parameters to submitted links, and do not use submissions or comments to advertise your store, channel or newsletter.

Penny-hunting etiquette

Penny finds are YMMV and depend on a store's own markdown cycle. Do not ask employees to override systems or to price-match a penny item, do not clear shelves of stock others need, do not hide items for later, and never post an employee's name or photo. Be someone the store is happy to see again — it is how these deals keep existing.

Be decent in comments

Disagreement is fine; harassment, slurs, threats, doxxing and spam are not. Keep it about the deal.

How we enforce

Submissions are reviewed before publication. Comments and deals that break these rules are hidden or unpublished, and accounts that keep breaking them are suspended. If you think a moderation decision was wrong, email pennydeals.26@gmail.com. To flag something, use the Report button on the deal.
