Nick Granger Updated by Nick Granger

Brief Overview

This article provides a guide on how to use the search functionality on the GiftDeals website to find the gift cards you're looking for. Learn how to effectively use the search bar and understand how discounted cards are displayed.

Locating the Search Function

You can access the search function in two locations:

  1. Primary Search Bar: The main search bar is located in the top navigation menu, on the upper-left side of the site.
  2. Footer Search Link: A secondary link to the search functionality, labeled "Search Store", can be found in the footer navigation. This is in the left column under the "General" heading.

Using the Search Function

The GiftDeals search is a free-text search that scans all page, collection, and product content. Here’s how to use it:

  1. Enter Your Keywords: Click on the search bar or the "Search Store" link. Type in keywords related to the brand, category, or any other terms related to the gift card you are looking for.

    • Examples: You might search for "Starbucks," "restaurant gift card," "home improvement," "Amazon," or any other specific term.
  2. Review Results: After entering your keywords, press Enter or click the search icon. The website will display all relevant results. Please note, the exact order of search results is not controlled by the user.

Understanding Search Results

  • No Filtering: There are no filtering options on the site. Search results are presented based on relevance to your keywords and cannot be further refined.

  • Discounted Cards: Discounted gift cards are easily identifiable by a red circle "sticker" displayed in the upper-right corner of the card image. This sticker shows the discount percentage, for example: "Save 5.0%".

  • Product Listing Titles: Additionally, the product listing title will display the original and discounted prices, such as: "Store Name $50.00 for only $45.00".

Tips for Searching

  • Free Text Search: Because the GiftDeals search is a free-text search, you can enter any terms you think are relevant.
  • No Specific Best Practices: There are no specific best practices beyond searching for what is relevant to you. Simply enter the keywords that best describe the gift card you are trying to find.

Summary and Key Takeaways

The search functionality on GiftDeals is straightforward to use. You can locate the search bar in the top navigation menu or use the "Search Store" link in the footer. Enter your keywords and review the results, keeping an eye out for the red "Save" sticker on discounted cards.
