the rage these days &#8211;\u00a0they&#8217;re those great sites where you can get huge discounts on lots of different things like vacations, spa services, or pretty much anything you can imagine.\u00a0 But you only get the discount for a short period of time, usually two or three days, and then the sale is gone in a &#8216;flash&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Arguably the largest segment of this business model would have to be high-end fashion.\u00a0\u00a0Sites like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ruelala.com\">Rue La La<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ideeli.com\">ideeli<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hatuelook.com\">HauteLook<\/a> (which Nordstrom just bought for $270 million) specialize in offering up to 80% off designer duds if you can beat the clock.\u00a0 And not to be left behind, Amazon.com just recently entered the fashion ring with their flash sales site <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myhabit.com\">MyHabit.com<\/a>.\u00a0 While there isn&#8217;t a whole lot they can do to reinvent the wheel, Amazon has added a few features to enhance your shopping experience.\u00a0 MyHabit.com offers discounts of up to 60% off, and\u00a0shoppers can see\u00a0video of the clothing on\u00a0real models\u00a0so you\u00a0can get a 360 degree look at how the clothing actually fits.\u00a0 The membership is free to join, and you also get free four-day shipping and free returns.<\/p>\n<p>With so many flash sales sites available, choosing one\u00a0basically boils down to where you can get the best deal on the designer you&#8217;re looking for.\u00a0 But if you&#8217;re a hardcore shopper and your inbox can handle it, join a few different ones, sign up for the sale notifications, and let the discounts come to you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flash sales websites are all the rage these days &#8211;\u00a0they&#8217;re those great sites where you can get huge discounts on lots of
