Find deals on eBay using misspelled auctions tool

Millions of listings are added to eBay every day. Many of them contain typos or misspellings. Savvy eBay buyers and sellers peruse these listings to find deals and inexpensive inventory to resell on eBay.

Here is how it works. Use a tool such as Typohound. Enter the correct spelling of an item or brand name. Let's use Burberry as an example. Typohound will return a list of all possible misspellings and then pop these words into the eBay search engine.

The result - a list of eBay listings that have any variation of the word Burberry. For example, click here to see a Burberry crested blazer up for sale at only $29. The seller has misspelled the brand name BURBERY (missing an R). You could very well purchase this item, have it shipped to you, re-take the photos, list the item, and sell it for $50-$60. (According to HammerTap, the average selling price for a Burberry blazer in EUC condition is $55. This one has the crest, so it will probably go for more.)

How easy is that for finding inventory without leaving home? Misspelling tools are free to use and you can find some incredible deals in the process. Like this tip? Check out Jim Cockrum's My Silent Team for more creative eBay selling strategies

Find (Almost) Anybody’s Email Address

With great power, comes great responsibility. 

I’m entrusting this tool to you with the understanding that Distilled readers will use it sensibly.

When doing outreach and linkbuilding, it’s often more effective to be able to send someone an email directly, rather than trying to use a contact form. Instead of hunting through a website to find someone’s email address, this process will speed things up and help you find the address you’re looking for.

(This video contains text, menus and spreadsheet cells worth seeing. I recommend you watch it full screen, and in the highest quality that your internet connection will allow.)

The important things you’ll need for running through this process:

• A Gmail account, if you don’t have one already
• The Rapportive plugin from Rapportive.com to get rich contact information inside Gmail
• The Google Doc spreadsheet at bit.ly/name2email

It’s worth mentioning: this tool ONLY uses publicly available data (Rapportive has a published policy on data and privacy) and it can’t help you find the email address of people who want to keep it hidden.

A sneaky way to get money off your groceries

How I managed to shop at Ocado for less than the exact same shop at Tesco...

In my household, my long-suffering boyfriend (soon-to-be husband) does most of the cooking.

This is partly because he’s a great cook, and partly because I’m a terrible cook. We are a perfect match!

To try to make up for my distinct lack of domestic goddess capabilities, I take responsibility for doing the supermarket shop every week. Which, being a sometimes busy and sometimes lazy person, I like to do online, via a site called mysupermarket.com.

I like this site because you can easily compare the price of, say, a bag of white seedless grapes with a box of white seedless grapes, and see which one is cheaper that week per kilogram. It also adds up the cost of your trolley in different supermarkets, so you can see whether it would be cheaper to shop that week at Asda instead of Tesco, due to the special offers that particular supermarket is hosting that day.

Now, I’ve been using this site for years and when I first started, supermarket discount codes were plentiful. A quick search on hotukdeals.com would reveal a dozen valid codes, each offering either free delivery or £5 off, shared on the forum by kind frugal tipsters like you and me.

Sadly, it seemed the supermarkets have wised up to this practice, and nowadays it’s rare to find a valid voucher code for anything other than your first online shop.

So what?

It always irritates me when firms treat their new customers better than old ones (and vice versa).

The supermarkets are being very clever here because it’s a lot of hassle to start afresh on a new account. You have to do individual searches for each item you want to buy, and can easily miss things off the list. I find it can take as much as 40 minutes to do a comprehensive online shop if you start from scratch.

By contrast, if you log in to an account you have used previously to do an online shop, all the items you have bought are saved as ‘favourites’ and on mysupermarket, you can literally start from your last trolley, no matter which supermarket you bought from.

So it takes seconds and just a few clicks to stock up on regular purchases.

Rachel Robson rounds up five ways to cut your food bills.

This means that, apart from switching brands here and there wherever there’s special offers or cheeky price cuts, I can generally whizz through my entire weekly shop in about 10 minutes.

Unfortunately, because I am a loyal customer using an account I have used before, that means I don’t qualify for any vouchers. Boo hiss!

The good news

The good news is, last week I discovered a way to get around this.

In fact it had been staring me in the face for years. I’m sure some of you already know about this, but for those of you who don’t, here’s how to use a ‘first online shop’ discount voucher without going through all the hassle of setting up a new account and filling your trolley from scratch for the first time:

Use the favourites stored in mysupermarket.

Remember, mysupermarket stores all your favourites, regardless of which supermarket you have used previously. So if you change your account details with Ocado, your favourites with Tesco will still be there, and you can instantly switch your trolley into Ocado with the click of a button.

I tried this at the weekend when a £15 off Ocado voucher fell out of a newspaper. (There is also a permanent £15 off your first shop voucher  on the Ocado website.) I love shopping at Ocado, which offers the same groceries as Waitrose – I just hate paying for the crazy prices they charge. And I felt it was wrong that new customers should benefit when I could not. So I made up my mind to use that voucher one way or the other!

 

In the end, all I had to do was set up a new account with Ocado using a different email address to the one I’d already registered. That took approximately one minute. Here's how I did it:

Registering as a new customer

Amazingly, Ocado allow new customers to register with an existing delivery address and name. The only thing the supermarket doesn't allow you to do is to register with an existing email address.

But you don't even have to go through the hassle of setting up a new email account if you have a gmail account, because Ocado fails to recognise gmail.com's plus addressing system.

This means you can simply use your existing email address at gmail.com (which can already be registered with Ocado), but add, for example, '+ocado1' to the bit before gmail.com. So if your existing address was lovemoneyreader@gmail.com, you'd change it to lovemoneyreader+ocado1@gmail.com. This will be interpreted by Ocado as a new email address of a new customer - even though all the emails it sends you will go to the inbox of your existing address (lovemoneyreader@gmail.com).

After using this feature of my gmail account to complete the registration process at Ocado, I went back to mysupermarket.com and took another minute to change the log-in details for Ocado on there – and hey presto! I was a new Ocado customer and could use the voucher code.

This meant that including delivery, my trolley at Ocado actually cost me 10% less than the exact same shop would have cost me at Tesco – and the quality of the fruit and vegetables was far higher.

Not bad for two minutes’ work...

Google Maps Head Indoors in the UK

If you’re traveling in the UK, now you can not only find directions to your destination using Google Maps — you can also find directions to things you’re looking for once you’re inside a number of locations.

Available at some locations in the US since last year, Google is launching indoor maps for Android devices for locations in the UK beginning Tuesday. A part of the standard Google Maps app, indoor maps will appear when you zoom in on a specific portion of a map. 

Once you’re zoomed in to a floor plan you can then search for what you’re looking for within that plan. For instance, you might zoom in on a train station to get an indoor map of the station and help finding the closest restroom or coffee shop. At a department store, you might use the indoor map functionality to find the shoe or children’s sections — even if those places are different floors in the building than the one you’re currently on.

More than 40 venues in the UK currently have their floor plans available, ranging from places like the British Museum and National Theater to the O2 Arena and Paddington Station. 

You can check out a full list of supported locations on Google’s website. If you’re a building owner you can also upload the floor plan for your building to be included in a future release.

Are there places you go that you wish you could access an indoor map of? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Dark Patterns: User Interfaces Designed to Trick People

Normally when you think of "bad design", you think of laziness or mistakes. These are known as design anti-patterns. Dark Patterns are different – they are not mistakes, they are carefully crafted with a solid understanding of human psychology, and they do not have the user’s interests in mind

Sneaky Ways Websites Get You to Spend More

By Kate Ashford

By now, you probably know that brick-and-mortar stores manipulate you-from the displays to the music to the giant "SALE" signs. But online shopping feels more straightforward. After all, you're in control of the experience, right? Think again. "Marketers are constantly trying to influence us and get us to click on things," says Deborah Mitchell, a senior lecturer in marketing at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. "The environment is absolutely about persuasion." Here, experts share ten website ploys meant to lighten your wallet. Photo by Getty Images

 

1. There's a high-priced item in the mix of products.

 

If you're idly browsing, a product with a higher price can make a mid-priced option seem more appealing. You may not even notice the pricier piece because, if a site is smart, the cost difference will seem like a reasonable step up. So how does this tactic get you to spend more? "People don't want to buy the most expensive thing, but they don't want to buy the cheapest thing either," says Mitchell. "They believe that avoiding the extremes is safer." Although you may not notice this trick, try not to reject less expensive products simply because they don't cost as much. 

2. Items are displayed in a particular order.

 

"Consumers tend to buy things they see early in a list," says Vicki Morwitz, PhD, a research professor of marketing at the Stern School of Business at New York University in New York City. Retailers use this knowledge to their benefit. The first few items you see may net the company a bigger profit, or there may be excess inventory of those things. They may even be items the site has found you're more likely to buy based on your shopping history (more on that in #8). Take advantage of sites' sorting options when they exist, and order a page's inventory by the criteria that works for you-lowest price to highest price, for instance, or best rating to worst. 

3. Sites charge extra for shipping.

You may think that shipping fees are exactly equal to the cost of mailing your item. Not so. "Retailers make money from shipping and handling fees," says Morwitz. And it's tough to spot a bad deal, since some retailers have a legitimate reason for charging more-a warehouse that's farther from you geographically, for instance, or a not-so-hot contract with a shipping company. The best thing to do: Use Google Shopping to compare the total cost of an item, including shipping, between sites, because some may charge less to ship but more for the product, or vice versa. Also, search a site like RetailMeNot.com for coupons before you buy-you might be able to find a code for free or reduced shipping. 

4. Shipping costs pop up last.

 

If you've clicked through eight screens and entered your billing address, shipping address and credit card info before you see shipping costs, you're less likely to give up on the order, even if the shipping fees are higher than expected, says Lars Perner, PhD, an assistant professor of clinical marketing at the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. If shipping costs seem high, it's worth your time to check at least one more retailer for a comparison price before you hit "submit."

 

5. Your subscription is automatically renewed.

 

Have you ever signed up for a 30-day trial of something, only to forget about it and get charged the full subscription price? "Many people don't get around to canceling it," says Perner. And the retailer is counting on that. Same goes for subscriptions that automatically renew at the end of a cycle-and it's not just magazines and newspapers that do this. Websites that charge for access (such as eHarmony), membership programs (such as the one at Barnes & Noble) and software that expires after, say, 12 months all have auto-renewal options. If you sign up for one of these, put a reminder in your calendar to cancel before the renewal date. Where possible, un-check the option to auto-renew. But if you're charged for something you never meant to re-order, call the retailer. They may issue you a refund. 

6. The retailer emails you directly.

 

If you've ever purchased anything online, you've probably received the retailer's follow-up promotional emails. Every time one of those pops up in your inbox, it gets that store into your brain. "It's just a matter of time until one of those emails arrives when you have time to shop around," says Perner. Unsubscribe from mailing lists when you can, or at least have those emails filtered into a separate folder you can check when it is time to shop.

 

7. There's a limited-time offer on the deal.

 

There are only six units left! You can only get this deal today! "These spur people to act quickly," says Perner. When you feel that quantities are finite or that an offer is only good for a particular period of time, there's a sense of urgency to make a purchase. What if the site never offers free shipping again? What if this is the only time this item will be on sale? What if they sell out? If you were going to buy an item anyway, feel free to jump on the sale. But if you find yourself snagging one-day-only deals left and right, even though you have no interest in tango lessons or dinner at the upscale sushi restaurant in town, you may want to unsubscribe from the daily deals emails. 

8. Your shopping experience has been personalized.

 

Some sites greet you by name. Some suggest products you might like, based on past purchases. You may even get special offers. "It all fosters a closer relationship between the consumer and the retailer," explains Mitchell. For instance, fire up your Amazon account and the site has "recommendations" for you. While it feels convenient, it's simply one more way to persuade you to buy something else. "If a company customizes well, it can highlight things of interest to you that you might not have found on your own," says Morwitz. If you'd rather not be tempted to buy those suggested items, log out of your profile on the site and try shopping as a new customer. 

9. Sales are advertised on the home page.

 

"People tend to 'anchor' on the first price they see," says Mitchell. "So if a retailer puts something that's inexpensive up front, people think that whole website is a great deal." But that's not necessarily the case. In fact, it's common for sites to put a few things on sale and bump up prices on the rest of their inventory, notes Mitchell. Make sure you comparison shop elsewhere before settling on something. 

10. The site saves your credit card info.

 

How convenient! You don't have to re-type your credit card number, since it's saved in your profile from the last time you shopped. "It makes it that much easier for consumers to push the 'buy' button without a second thought," says Morwitz. If you feel like you're impulse-shopping because it's so simple to click "submit," consider checking out as a guest instead of creating a profile on a site, when you can. That way, your information won't be stored for your next online shopping excursion. But if your habit is in check, go ahead and use the stored billing info feature, suggests Morwitz-it'll save you time and the effort of digging out your credit card.

Get Twitter to tell new users who YOU think they should follow

Twitter will show new users a list YOU created of suggested people to follow! First, you need to create a special list (how to is below). Then, anyone clicking the “Sign Up” button when visiting YOUR Twitter page will be presented with YOUR list of suggested people to follow! All you have to do is creating a regular Twitter list, but include “#WelcomeToTwitter” (with no quotes) in the list’s description. Then when people join, Twitter will show them that list and recommend the people on it to follow! Here’s Twitter’s presentation on “Follow Recommendations:”

Sneaky Little Email Trick to Get People to Click Through on Your Links

Today I would like to share a sneaky little email trick with you that I learned from Carl White, one of my husband’s mortgage coaches. This little trick gets people to click through on the links in your emails, which is what we all want. Right?

So let’s say you are sending out an email to your list in which you would like to introduce your subscribers to the new product line your company just released. And let’s say you want to send them to one of your company’s videos.

The easiest way to do this would be to add a hyperlink in the body of your email and hope that people will click on it and go through to the video. Right?

Well yes, that might work. But often subscribers don’t click on our links because they don’t like to be taken to another website. They think something like, “Oh, I don’t have time for this right now. I’ll just come back to it later.” And we all know how that goes. They’ll click away never to return again.

So how about a little teaser?

You know how the saying goes about how curiosity killed the cat?  Not only cats, but people as well are curious by nature. Some more than others, but if we are tempted enough most of the time our curiosity gets the better of us. Wouldn’t you agree?

So, here’s a sneaky little email trick
to make your subscribers want to
take a look at your video and click through.

How about taking a screenshot of the video and add a little play button to the image to make it look like your video is actually embedded in your email. Then insert the image into your email and hyperlink it to your video, so when people click on the image they are directly taken to your video? (I use Aweber as my autoresponder, but you can use this little trick in any email client.)

In the example above I used SnagIt to take the screenshot and then using the arrow tool added a “Play Button” to the image.

You think someone would click on that?

I would, and I bet you a soda pop so would most people. There’s just something about that little “Play” button that makes us want to click on it. We just can’t help it. Especially if the image of the video itself is enticing.

Now, some people have their email client set so it doesn’t show images. So to make sure that these people still get a chance to click through to your video, include the hyperlink underneath your picture or somewhere in your text as well.

Go ahead try out this “sneaky little email trick” in your next campaign and check your stats to see if your click through rate doesn’t go up. I betcha it does.

To Your Massive Success!
