Every deal comes from the CheapShark public API (PC game prices across Steam and other digital stores). CheapShark licenses that reuse if we send you through their redirect links, which we do. We do not scrape Slickdeals, DealNews, Reddit, or unofficial store pages. Nothing is posted by hand.
New deals are pulled in throughout the day, and existing ones are re-checked against the retailer's own page on a rolling basis. When a re-check finds the price has jumped or the page has gone, the listing is removed automatically.
Prices come from CheapShark and are re-checked against their API on a rolling basis. Stores can still change a price between our last check and your checkout. Always confirm the price on the store’s own page before you buy.
Deals expire. Every listing has a countdown, and once it lapses — or once a re-check finds the price gone — the deal is removed from the feed. Deal pages stay online for a while afterwards with their price history, so you can see what the item sold for.
Every price seen for a product is recorded. That badge appears when the current price is the lowest in the history collected for it. It only covers the period this site has been tracking the item, not its entire retail history.
Yes, some outbound “Get Deal” buttons are affiliate advertisements. If you click and buy, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That paid relationship is stated at the top of every page that has deal links, next to the buttons themselves, and on the affiliate disclosure page. It does not affect which deals appear or how they are ordered — the feed is assembled automatically from the sources above.
No. BrokeBoyDeals is an independent publisher. We do not sell the products, take payment, or ship orders. When you click through you are buying from the named store on that store’s own site.
Game deals move much faster and in far greater volume than physical products, so they would swamp the main feed. They live under the Video Games category instead, and are also posted to Discord once a day.
No. Game listings are filtered against Steam's own content descriptors plus a keyword check, and anything flagged for nudity or sexual content is rejected before it reaches the site or the Discord channel.
Use the bell icon in the header to enable browser notifications for new deals. Video game deals are also posted to Discord daily.
