Why Can’t We Post Deals from a Sale That’s Already Been Posted About?
Help
Hi Tom
Aplogies for the confusing title,
I posted a deal last week. It was the Sleek makeup half price at Superdrug one. I soon got a notification that it was a duplicate & the post was removed. BUT after I posted that deal I also posted one for a particular item in that sale, as the price stood out to me and the sale had many items, so I thought it’s ok to post. Long story short, I soon got a notification that both have been removed. The sale post is understandable, but the other post which was for a liquid lipstick from around 50 items in that sale was also removed. I don’t understand why my post was removed. People post about individual items from sales all the time and nothing happens.
Upon clicking ‘already shared it’ - it takes me to this page:
which is the ENTIRE sale, & it wasn’t for that one particular item, so my post wasn’t a duplicate

Morning jayy
This was my bad - sorry!
I reckon in the situation you shared above you should have been able to share a specific item from the sale that you thought was a good deal without it being removed as a duplicate.
It was pretty much just little ol' me handling reports last week and - occasionally - if I noticed a post had been reported by several different people as a duplicate I took it as read and didn't manually check it
I've reinstated your post and your points along with it In the future, I won't slack as much!

It’s fine, not to worry. I was just abit confused that’s all. As I knew we could post an individual item from a sale that has been posted about, as many have done it before. So I was confused when my post was removed. Thanks for clearing it up!

Sorry to jump in on your post @jayy but I've just had a similar thing happen - a freebie was posted for free bunches of flowers at Morrisons, for which you needed a More Card and a voucher. I then posted about a different freebie at Morrisons which was 'mum' checkouts and free flowers at the checkout (no voucher or card needed) but it's been removed as a duplicate - are we only allowed to post one freebie at a time per store? Admittedly they are quite similar but I took care on posting to ensure that the title description made it obvious that it was not the same freebie! Kelsey, can you help?

Fixed Thanks for letting me know.
For anyone else reading, please do let us know if you feel a decision to remove your post was wrong - we're human and make mistakes and will always review things!
