That one site, where you can bid on things, and get them SUPER cheap?
I've seen a few commercials for the site, but I can't remember what it's called.
It's where you bid on an item, but the bids are very small amounts, like pennies at a time, and you can end up getting something for like, 95% off or something.
I'm trying to find what site this is for my sister, she's looking for a few pricey items, and neither of us can recall the site. Any help?
This one was seen during the afternoon... I don't think it's that one. But, maybe, I don't know.
I know it was a short name, and I'm pretty sure it started with a "b", if that helps anyone?

You pay $50 for 50 pennies to use on the website. It is called penny auctions. It is misleading because you do not use pennies at all. The $50 you spend buying those 50 pennies have a high chance at not winning anything. So next time you see the commercial, for every $100 dollars to win that item, bidders spent $10,000 dollars. So an item that won at $322.21 actually went for $32,221 dollars. They advertise in the middle of the night when commercials are at the cheapest.
