Bidaroo.com is an auction site where you can pay up to 90% less than retail price, with up to 65% of their proceeds going to a charity of your choice. It's a little tricky, so we'll break it down for you. Each bid you make requires a certain number of tokens, which you purchase. Each auction has a set number of bids that can be made before the auction is closed. To win the auction, you need to have the highest unique bid. For example, say a product is up for auction with a bid range of $0.01 - $18.99. If you and only you were to bid $18.67 and it was the highest bid not duplicated by another bidder, you then win the auction. It's a bit of a gamble, but the winning bidder will pay around 10% of the retail cost of their product. As stated earlier, you need to purchase tokens for auctions (you get 20 free just for signing up), so check out our Bidaroo Coupons for discounts on your token purchases. Click Here
