Welcome BusNut! Enjoy

Hey @busnut, welcome aboard!

I had to reset my password already as I was locked out. Hopefully just a one time glitch? I think the best/most useful threads are the ones that update the latest bank rates like CD’s, savings, MMA’s. Some other past threads that were good were the bank bonus and best 0% no fee balance transfers.

Hello former FWers! Great to see some familiar names here. Thanks to everyone who put this site together, it is much appreciated.
-
Hi @CKritiv1 - Thanks for joining us! Settle in and make yourself at home! Let us know if you have any questions or suggestions! Glad you’re here!
-
Thanks for creating the home. I’d love to see a topic alerts via email for topics that we’d like to be notified for. Still getting used to this layout so I’m not sure if this was already posted…
I would be happy to help moderate - any specific time commitment?
Thx!

Hi @jokerzwild! Thanks for joining us! Tagging in @dangeRuss so he is aware of your willingness to help out. Please also let him know if you have any web design or NodeBB experience.
A number of folks have asked for topic/keyword alerts, it is definitely on the (long) list of items we are trying to get built and implemented. Please be patient as we all settle into our new home.

Was with FW since they opened their doors in 2000. Sad that they closed up shop… Need any help, let me know.
-
Welcome @acadiel - we’re glad you joined us and we are all missing FW as well. Hopefully our new home will become even better than FW over time.

Nope, unfortunately I haven’t done web design since hand coding my own HTML webpages way back in the day. Be glad to help act as a backup mod, etc. Thanks for putting the site up!

Wow, I haven’t been keeping up with FatWallet like I used to, but was surprised when I went to check it today and it was gone! I didn’t even get the “we’re closing” E-mail from them. Thank you to everyone that started up this new site!

I wish there was a category for “Electronics” i.e. TV deals or am I missing something??

that is Hot Deals
-
SD has subcategories and the ability to sort/filter by categories. (can’t seem to post a screenshot?) Under their Deals, there is a subcategory HDTV
I hope that PW becomes everything FW was and even more than SD!
Apologize that all I can offer is suggestions and not much in the way of tech ability to share the workload.
I want PW to succeed even if just to show up those who let FW die on the vine.

Try using tags (click the little shopping tag icon at the top of every page and entering your category of interest: e.g., https://phatwalletforums.com/tags/hdtv)

@fivetalents Is there a way to do a topic alert for a brand name? Can you explain how the Tags are organized? Not alphabetical. Not sure what the numbers 1, 2, 3 are. Tried to understand how to find a tag if my search didn’t work. I was trying an alert for Yankee Candle.

There is currently no topic alert system (for either on screen or via email), however, this issue does have a support request thread if you’d like to add your thoughts there: https://phatwalletforums.com/topic/743/topic-alerts
-
Tags are sorted by the most frequently used tag at that moment, with the most tagged key words being at the top. For example, “FOOD” is currently at the top of the tags home page because 129 threads have been posted about food… more than any other key word at this time: https://phatwalletforums.com/tags. Note that when you are on the tags home page, to save time you can just use control + F to search for key words instead of using the actual search box.
-
FWIW, there is currently a thread for Yankee Candles: https://phatwalletforums.com/topic/1867/50-off-all-candles-car-and-home-fragrance-ac-yankee-candle-exp-11-05-2017/2. I’ll create a tag for it now because they are the actual merchant (only the merchant and product category are tagged BTW). Tags are assigned manually by the OP and/or moderator, so every thread may not be tagged exactly the same way. Also, tags are only assigned for major categories so specific terms like diapers will not be tagged (e.g., only “baby” would be tagged).
HTH

@fivetalents thanks. I searched the tags for CANDLE and nothing came up.

YW. Yes, that would be too specific for tags but would work perfectly for email alerts.

Been with FW since 2001. My entire house is furnished as a result of FW. I can certainly help moderate if needed. Let’s do this!
