      icon_thumright  If you find a great deal - please verify it with the original source before you post it to make sure it is accurate.  Posts should always be written in your own words and never copied or linked from another good deal website.  This also applies to sharing SavvyShopperDeals.com finds with other good deal websites.

Hey all, if you haven't read our rules of etiquette yet, please do.

Remember, NEVER copy someone else's work unless you have permission to do so and give them credit.  I know many of you are unaware of this policy, so I thought I would bump this post.  Thanks!

I got this question so I thought I would clarify:

QUESTION:
Was just looking at recent posts and saw the one you put up about etiquette and not copying other's work.  What exactly do you mean?  Like work others have done to find deals from other sites? 


ANSWER:
Yes.  If you find a good deal on another site, you shouldn't copy it word for word - unless you have permission to do so and you give the site credit (It's kind of like plagiarism).  You can share the information, in your own words, once you yourself have verified it to be accurate.  Same for copying our lists and posting them elsewhere.  Does that make sense?
