Our Editorial Process

How we research, evaluate, and score every deal on BuyGetRewards.

How We Find Deals

Our team monitors pricing daily across major retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, B&H Photo, and direct manufacturer stores. We use a combination of automated price tracking tools and manual research to identify genuine discounts.

We focus on products we understand well — primarily consumer electronics, computing, mobile devices, and wearables. Specialization lets us evaluate deals with the depth they deserve, rather than covering everything superficially.

How We Evaluate Deals

Every deal on our site goes through a multi-factor evaluation:

1
Price History Check

We compare the current price against its 30-day, 90-day, and 180-day pricing history. A deal that's been at the same price for months isn't a deal — it's the regular price.

2
Cross-Retailer Comparison

We check the same product across multiple retailers. If Amazon is selling at "30% off" but Best Buy has it at the same price without a discount tag, the savings are overstated.

3
Product Quality Assessment

A cheap price on a mediocre product isn't a good deal. We evaluate specifications, user reviews, and competitive alternatives to ensure the product itself delivers value.

4
Market Timing

We consider seasonal patterns, product cycles, and upcoming releases. Sometimes the best advice is to wait.

Our Deal Score (1-10)

Each deal receives a score from 1 to 10 based on the factors above. Here's what the ranges mean:

9-10Exceptional deal. Lowest price we've tracked, strong product, buy now.
7-8Good deal. Meaningful discount on a quality product. Worth considering.
5-6Decent deal. Some savings, but not the best we've seen. Consider waiting.
1-4Weak deal. Minimal discount, inflated MSRP, or better options exist.

We don't inflate scores. Not everything is an 8. If a deal is mediocre, we'll say so.

AI-Assisted Analysis

We use AI tools to help generate comprehensive deal analysis including specifications, competitive comparisons, and FAQ content. All AI-generated content is reviewed and refined by our editorial team for accuracy.

AI helps us cover more products more thoroughly. Editorial judgment and pricing expertise remain human.

Editorial Independence

BuyGetRewards earns revenue through affiliate commissions. This is standard for deal and review sites — you click a link, buy a product, and we earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Our commitment: affiliate relationships never influence our deal scores, recommendations, or editorial content. We score deals the same whether or not we earn a commission on them.

If we wouldn't recommend a product to a friend, we won't recommend it on our site. Simple as that.
