Claim Wednesday: 4 open claims, no proof needed

Four claims are open, none needs a receipt — plus one free thing.



These land in our #settlements channel the day our monitors find them, deadline on the card; the sample went to #freebies this morning. Awards are estimates that shrink as more file — file only if you match the official class definition. Kroger write-up:


Does one of these apply to you? Tell us in the replies.

Veins of the week: 3 alerts that broke hardest

Three alerts from the last seven days that were worth pulling the car over for — every price below was read straight off the product page a few minutes ago.


  • Star Wars Boys Darth Vader graphic tee, sizes 4-18 — $1.55 at Walmart, 81% off the $7.98 it normally carries. Broke Monday 9:04 AM ET and it is still live and in stock.

  • Ozark Trail men's and big men's hike pants, sizes 30-46 — $6.27 at Walmart, 75% off the $24.98 it was listed at when it broke. Went live Monday 10:14 AM ET and it is in stock.

  • JanSport Odyssey 39L backpack with a 15-inch laptop sleeve, navy — $34.99 at Woot, 68% off the $110 list. Broke Sunday 9:39 PM ET; the price still reads on the page.


None of these came from a feed. Walmart apparel markdowns like these hit #walmart the minute our monitors see the price move, the overnight Woot drop went to #other-stores, and every card shows the price, the % off and the store before you decide.


Yesterday's alerts, public 24 hours late:


Which do you want more of this week — small everyday basics like these, or fewer but bigger-ticket catches?

The Payload — Oct 5 → Oct 11

2,582 alerts this week, 319 in the last day, 1 Strike since Sep 24. Cards carry their catch time and a cancel-risk rating.


  • Fastest catch: a price mistake on a 4-pack of Purina ONE True Instinct at Walmart — carded 2 seconds later. High cancel risk: Walmart catches mistakes in 2–4 hours.

  • Died fastest: the $8.99 Lenovo T210 15.6" top-loader. Carded Tuesday: "price no longer valid" at our next check — gone in half a day.

  • Risk we called: a $449 Pulsar 6000W dual-fuel generator, a community-reported price mistake. High cancel risk, 50/50 on shipping, never verified.


Honesty ledger: 167 alerts since Sep 24 carry a verified reference price. This week: 7 Got it, 14 Dead for me — dead ones count too.


Alerts fire in the channels you pick (#pick-your-alerts). Whole week:



What did you grab — and what got cancelled?

30 seconds that helps a lot

Thanks for being here — and to everyone who flags a bad card, keep doing it.

Big Deal Days: real deals vs fake deals

The October sales are here — and we're checking which of the deals are actually deals.


The calendar (all ET):

  • Walmart Deal Days — Oct 5-11, live now, no membership needed.

  • Amazon Prime Big Deal Days — Oct 6-7, 3:01 a.m. Tuesday to 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, Prime members only.

  • Target Circle Deal Days — Oct 6-7 for free Circle members; Circle 360 gets early access today.

  • Best Buy — nothing announced. If you see a "Best Buy Deal Days" post, it isn't one.

  • Black Friday Nov 27, Cyber Monday Nov 30.


How we check: every Walmart, Target and Best Buy card this week carries one line from our 90-day price history — a new 30-day low, matches its low, below its usual price, no cheaper than usual, or not enough history yet. The daily Fake-deal watch in #general names the ones whose "sale" price is no cheaper than usual. Want a second opinion on something you found? Use /check with any Walmart, Target, Best Buy or Newegg link.


On Amazon: we don't grade Amazon prices — Amazon's own rules mean we stay out of those numbers, so check the total at checkout before you hit buy.


Set store pings in #pick-your-alerts so the ones you care about reach you, and always verify at checkout — prices move fast on sale days.

The Payload — Sep 28 → Oct 4

The week: 2,027 deals posted in the last 7 days — 282 of them in the last 24 hours. Every card carries its catch time and a cancel-risk rating.


  • Fastest catch: a Frontier fare out of Los Angeles — $19 one-way, $38 round trip to Las Vegas, nonstop, October travel.

  • Died fastest: Starlight SY-BT1632 over-ear headphones at $35.99, 85% off list. Target spots an error that size within a couple of hours — this one didn't outlast them.

  • Risk we flagged: a restored iPad Mini 4 at $39, priced far under anything real, so we stamped it high cancel risk and told you to check the third-party seller.


Alerts: Discord, seconds behind the monitors — #s-tier-errors for price errors, #online-price-errors for the rest.


Honest: no Strikes this week. Quiet weeks get reported too.


What did you actually get delivered this week? Post it in #support — misses count too.

5 claims still open this week: 3 settlements, a $1M contest, a bank bonus

Every Tuesday we round up the money still sitting there unclaimed. Five things are open right now — and one of them closes in 11 days.


• Northrop Grumman settlement ($75M) — current or former owners of a single-family home or townhome in the Canoga Park / Winnetka class-area zones. Claims close Oct 10, 2026.


• Sandoz / Fougera generic-drug settlement ($275M) — consumers and third-party payers in every state except Indiana and Ohio, plus D.C. and Puerto Rico. The claim form has to be submitted or postmarked by Nov 9, 2026.


• Visa / Mastercard non-bank ATM settlement ($167.5M) — anyone in the U.S. charged an access fee to withdraw cash at an independent ATM between Oct 24, 2007 and Aug 14, 2026. Claims due Feb 10, 2027.


• MrBeast "Most Dangerous Games" skill contest ($1,000,000) — 18+, resident of the U.S. (not Maryland), the U.K., Australia or Mexico. Heads up: entry needs proof of purchase of the print book, so it is not a free-entry sweep. Registration closes Oct 11, 2026.


• HSBC Premier checking ($1,000 to $3,000) — new customers: $50k deposited or invested pays $1,000, $500k+ pays $3,000. Open by Dec 31, 2026 and hold the balance three months. Read the fee first: $50/month unless you meet Premier status, so run your own numbers.


Each deal card in the feed carries the claim or entry link. Amounts depend on the fund and how many claims come in, so we never promise a payout.

The Payload — Sep 20 → Sep 27

Fresh numbers: 1,191 alerts since Sep 24, 270 in the last 24 hours; 28 carried verified sold comps, 1 earned a Strike. No member results logged this week — /log a buy or a sale in #bot-commands.


The week's three:

  • Fastest catch — a Crown Ride pallet jack, $55 opening bid vs a $210–$372 range from 5 auction hammers. One bid, closed 11 hours after we carded it.

  • Best re-catch — an HP Z2 Tower G1i workstation, $1,699 vs a $5,669 typical price: 70% off, lowest we've tracked, re-verified live.

  • Cancel risk we called — two MSI graphics cards listed 61% and 83% under the going rate as cross-store price errors. Both got the ❗ high flag: price errors get cancelled. Both are gone.


Alerts hit Discord the moment a monitor trips — timestamped, cancel risk on every card.


Question: what should our monitors hunt harder — GPUs, workstations, or auction lots?

⛏️ Midday dig — one flag got deeper, one is brand new.

HP Z2 Tower G1i workstation: now $1,699, down from the $1,849 we flagged Sunday — 70% off, lowest we've tracked, re-verified live. Cancel risk ⚠️ medium: the price is live, not a promise it ships.

Mac Studio M5 Max (36 GB / 512 GB): $1,999.99 at Micro Center, cancel risk ✅ low.

Comps aren't in, so these are discount calls, not profit calls. Deeper workstation flag, or the clean low-risk Mac: which do you chase?
