Members of the Month
July 2020
dealbot for posting the most popular deal last month, Free Watch Dogs 2 @ Ubisoft. It's just another game that gets added to my long queue of free Steam / Epic / Obisoft games that need to be played. dealbot has also posted 65 deals in July where 59 of them got onto the OzBargain front page.
sixcurve for posting the most clicked deal last month, 60,000 Free Domino's Pizzas. Together with 50,000 Free Pizza Hut Pizzas posted by dealbot, that would pretty much feed all the OzBargainers this month. Still one day to go to grab more free food tomorrow.
On the topic of freebies, headphonejack posted the quickest deal that made to front page & +100 votes — Free Case of Koyomi Delivered @ Beam Suntory. It got to +100 votes in less than 12 minutes, where all 1,000 were claimed by then (otherwise it would probably get more votes).
nocure for making the most front-page deals again this month. nocure has posted 121 deals (2nd in July) but 69 of them got onto the OzBargain front page with vote average of +56.55. Most popular being Free eBook - Learn to Play Piano on Amazon Kindle.
