How to Get Secret Sale Notifications

Secret sales are savings events that are typically not advertised to the general public. The items available are normally deeply discounted and only offered at that price for the duration of the secret sale. To find out when a secret sale is going to take place, you can sign up to receive notifications via email.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Visit the website of your favorite retailer. Search for an option that permits you to put in your email address to receive information about special offers. Many stores use this list to notify customers of a secret sale.
2. Check with a sales associate about getting on an email list for secret sale notifications. Ask one of the store clerks to put your name and email address on the list.
3. Join a secret sale exchange forum. Shopping and sales forums can help you stay notified of stores' secret sales. Opt for email notifications on the forum when a new post is made. Secret Sales has a forum that is easy to use.
4. Notify any retailers of changes to your email address. If you wish to continue being notified of secret sale events, then make sure that all email lists that you belong to have your current address.

Tips & Warnings

• You should expect to receive notifications of secret sales during the peak shopping seasons. This includes before and after the holidays and during the summer months.
• If you have a store credit card, then the retailer is probably going to notify you automatically of any secret sale events that they are holding.
