Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check PostThisDeal Handpicked Deals every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

deal

check_deal_status

Status of one stored deal: lifecycle, the latest completed check at the merchant (outcome, evidence source, time, observed price) and its freshness. When the last check is not fresh, this queues a background check through PostThisDeal's own verification (rate-limited, one per deal at a time) and returns status "pending" with retry_after_seconds; call again later. "not_checkable" and "unavailable" say why no check can run. A check never proves a coupon code works, and a failed check never marks a deal verified. Takes a deal id, never an address.

get_deal

The full public record of one deal: description, retailer, brand, product identifiers, variant and condition when stated, price as posted with its source and reference price, coupon and how to redeem it, membership, subscription, minimum-spend and shipping requirements, availability, timestamps, lifecycle, verification and freshness, provenance, links and a suggested response. Unknown values are null. Each deal has links.source_url (the PostThisDeal page to credit) and links.purchase_url (the shopping link: present it unchanged as the purchase action) plus a disclosure.

deals

search_deals

Search the live deals PostThisDeal's team has handpicked (only published posts; ended, expired and unavailable deals are left out). Filter by words, retailer, brand, category, price range, minimum discount (only deals whose discount is backed by two stated prices) and online or in-store availability; sort by relevance, newest, price, discount or most recently checked. Ranking uses relevance, price and freshness only, never commission. Each deal has links.source_url (the PostThisDeal page to credit) and links.purchase_url (the shopping link: present it unchanged as the purchase action) plus a disclosure. An empty result means nothing matched.

latest

get_latest_deals

Deals published or updated most recently, newest first, optionally only since a time and for a retailer or category. Ended, expired and unavailable deals are left out unless include_ended is true. Each deal has links.source_url (the PostThisDeal page to credit) and links.purchase_url (the shopping link: present it unchanged as the purchase action) plus a disclosure.
