April has definitely been the "month of Delivery Hero". Looking at the top 10 deals that are fastest to reach +100 votes, 8 of them are from those late afternoon Delivery Hero coupon codes. Somehow this deal took the crown which hit 100 votes in 35.78 minutes.
April was also significant in terms of competitions with one user winning A Trip to LA (2x Kids 10-18yo and 1 Adult) worth $13,586. This is the biggest win recorded on OzBargain and is quite remarkable as this user has also won a trip to NY, tickets to the Cinderella premiere and a couple of other big prizes. We hope to get her to do an AMA sometime in the next couple of weeks.
We added email subscription numbers to the stats this month. Subscriptions are a great way to be immediately notified by email when a new deal is posted for a store. Unfortunately, it seems that many people don't know about this feature however due to the IWantThisFlight rep continuing to remind users in their deals, they have amassed the highest number of subscribers for a store.

mitim6 — for the deal of the month, Free Michael Jackson, Calvin Harris & Justin Timberlake Albums on Google Play. It took 9.27 minutes to get onto the front page, 42.67 minutes to get +100 votes, however the deal was only live for less than 39 hours before it got to 700+ votes. It's mitim6's very first deal on OzBargain although he/she hasn't been back to here since 26 April. Hopefully not a one shot wonder.
nmat — for sharing the competition of the month, Win 1 of 5 $10,000 Cash Prize from ING Direct. 119 registered entrants, and with one member winning $10,000.
tightarse — our regular here, for posting 67 deals with +105 votes average, including four top10 deals from last month (Fast Food vouchers, AirNZ to LAX, Free movies on SBS & Free Songs at Google Play).
TRENT86 — for being the most active poster (again!) with 94 deals with +30 vote average and 41 of them landed on the front page.
There was feedback about the members of the month awards. We are discussing this to figure out the best way forward.
