Does Anybody Else Wonder about The Bargains That Don't Even Make It to This Page? I Mean There Has Got to Be a Lot Right?

Just my two cents of thinking for tonight.

Does anybody else wonder about the great ozbargains we don't see?

Food for thought. Discuss.

  If they don't make it here. How would you know they exist?

  Unless a selfish OzB'er prefers to keep a deal/bargain/hack a secret than they are breaking so many OzB codes.

  If you know something, say (post) something

    I think it's understandable that some hacks cannot shared because once they become OzBargain'd, then they'll disappear.

      If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

      If a christmas tree is an ozbargain and noone is aware of the sale is it a bargain?

      Deep…

  I think TA, nocure, Spackbace, EC, Hamza, lyl, trent etc. do a pretty good job making sure that doesn't happen

  There's a thread about what deals people don't share. (Link)
  So that gives a good idea of what people find but don't post.

  With the huge amount of Boxing Day sales I was also thinking there must be some great bargains going unnoticed.
  But generally I'd say most unseen bargains would be small-scale, like in individual clearence sections of shops.

  There are only so many well known retailers that we can find bargains for. It's probably more likely to have duplicate deals than missing ones.

  Would Donald Rumsfeld classify these as the unknown unknowns or known unknowns?

  "In February 2002, Donald Rumsfeld, the then US Secretary of State for Defence, stated at a Defence Department briefing: 'There are known knowns. There are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we now know we don't know.But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know."

  If a bargain doesn't make OzBargain, was it ever really a bargain?
