I’m a bargain shopper. Anytime I’m in the market for a new item, I search online for the best deals prior to purchasing. Although it can delay my purchase, I feel good knowing I found the best possible deal and saved my family money.
Recently I came across Greentoe.com, which offers an array of popular items every family needs, however, you name your price, instead of the other way around. That’s right, instead of the retailer pricing the item, you do. Not only does this save time scouring the internet for the best deal, but money too! It’s a win-win.
A big purchase I have contemplated for some time now is a DSLR camera.
I went on Greentoe.com and selected DSLR cameras.
You can see from the image above there are several options to narrow down the results. I selected a price range of $250-$499. One camera that stood out to me was the Nikon D3100. Several bloggers have spoken highly of this particular camera and I was curious about what kind of deal I could get at Greentoe.com.
I like that I was able to see several images of the camera I was interested in, plus all the details were listed there too. Just below that is a meter where I can name my price and find out my chances on snagging this camera for the price I wanted. Just below the meter is a range of prices from competitors and reviews from consumers who have purchased the Nikon D3100. Literally everything that I needed was right there in front of me. No searching multiple sites for the same information!
Once the meter gave me the go ahead, I could make an offer and sit back to hear from a retailer who accepted my offer. They then ship the item to your door. All orders have a minimum of 14 days to return the item as well.

I have heard of Greentoe, but I have not used their service. I need to take a look around and see what they have to offer for Father’s Day! Anytime I can save money, then that is great for my family!

Never heard of this! I’m going to check it out. I need a “real” camera too…but I need someone to help me figure it out too!

Never heard of this, but like you i want a DSLR and the good ones are so expensive – any deal I could get would be great. And to add another $25 off from you? Awesome! I’m headed over….

Wow, this is a great site for those who want to get an item and can wait some time to get a decent price! I would definitely use this for an item that I’ve been saving for or wanted rather than needed. I will have to check it out and see what I can find, but I love that it allows you to name a price rather than the other way around. Sounds better than scrambling to get something when it’s on sale just to be left disappointed that you were too late or not on time. Thanks for sharing, I’ll have to keep greentoe in my bookmarks.
