Win a $40 eBay Gift at Hottypo
Let’s face it. Some of us are not good spellers. That can be a bad thing if you are a writer, but that can mean saving a lot of money to you if you know where to use this fault to your advantage. On eBay, for example, you can find products that have typos in their name making it a category unto itself that is often overlooked by those of us who know how to spell correctly.
For instance, if you were shopping for a “makbook” instead of a “macbook” on eBay, you would be among a smaller group of people who would be bidding on that item. Other consumers would only be looking at the properly spelled product. So when you have fewer people bidding on a product that means less competition to you, and increases your chances of winning the auction a lower price.
The where would you begin looking for these hidden treasures? Guessing at typos and searching for them in eBay wouldn’t be a good use of your time. But if you went to a site called Hottypo, all you have to do is enter in the name of a product and let it provides you with possible typo ideas.
