Use this thread to post or discuss any media appearances you see for the site. Be sure to only post stories from this year, not from 2005.

Here is the first one. I did a phone interview this morning and it should be in the paper tomorrow:

nice typo - I'm guessing they meant shopping?

Cool article.

[Brad]

Bump for this morning. Welcome to all our new visitors from Arizona

[noehlp]

AWESOME! Everyone get ready for GD (GottaDeal) to grow more! I personally can't wait. The more the merrier. BTW, Brad, have you thought about notifying some press about the TMX site you have going? Also, your age REALLY surprised me!

[lennon2004]

Brad, is there anything members can do to help y'all get more press?

[KayTee]

Great article! I will be sure to spread the word!

Brad, is there anything members can do to help y'all get more press?

Hijack NBC's "Today" show and demand everyone who bought 20+ Elmo TMX's return them to the store and donate their eBay profits to a local charity.

While giving a shout-out to your GottaDeal homies of course

I'll be posting a thread in the "BF Basics" forum shortly that will have ways you can spread the word. I'll post a link in this thread when it's done as well.

Keep up to date on GD press:

You can also get e-mails sent to you by clicking the "Get the latest news on gottadeal with Google Alerts." link on that page (or the link here should work).

I only get the Arizona Republic on weekends. Makes me wish I just bought a paper yesterday.

I, too, welcome all my fellow Maricopians to GottaDeal! Enjoy your stay!

I knew there was a reason I asked you and not Ross. Thanks!

Actually I think the story is in today's paper (was just posted on the web site yesterday) so you could still go out and get one (and an extra one for me )

Great Article Brad!

[able]

wtg brad. im sure you will be extreamly busy with news articles and interviews n the upcoming month or two!

[magickallight]

Brad, you are ONLY 27?!? Man, I feel OLD!!!

[stationchief]

Just picked up the local paper with Brad's article in it tonite. Maybe time to get a lamination kit to comemmorate the first article on BF. And Brad, yer only 27 and the founder of GottaDeal? Wow, you have my envy!

[NeepNeep]

GottaDeal is off to a great start for 2006. Way to go, Brad

[stationchief]

Yeah, that type-o is in the print article as well. Someone should've caught that one when they put it online and before they printed it.

Looks like they copied the exact article from the AZ paper....

ETA: but they fixed the typo.

[Novac]

Per the article, they got it off the "GANNETT NEWS SERVICE" so other papers using that service might start running it soon, too.

[Firemansgal311]

Well in that case the GottaDeal stuff might be appearing on Channel 10 in Knoxville because as I remember WBIR was owned by Gannett. Look out we'll soon have an influx of East Tennesseeans:)

[stationchief]

Just so there's no mass confusion here:

Erica Sagon, the reporter who wrote Brad's article, is a reporter hired for the 'AZ Republic'. Now, the 'Ganett News Service' is who produces that Phoenix local paper and also produces many others around the country and even around the world. Therefore Brad's article could end up in any of the papers Ganett makes. Be on the lookout.

Here's a list of local newspapers Ganett produces. And yes, the 'Florida Today' is listed:
Ganett Newspapers

And just for the record, the 'AZ Republic' has the original article and had it first. With Erica's type-o and all. So ...

Good article. They mention a couple of the other sites, but highlight GD.
