To clarify what I mean:
Since I'm on the mailing list from O'Reilly, I get their mails telling me about special offers.
Once in a while I post them in the deals forum. Since there isn't much to say, it's usually a rather empty thread.

So I wonder if I should continue to create new threads, or create a generic "O'Reilly offer" thread and post details as separate postings?
The advantage would be less empty threads - but the disatvantage is that you need to actually look into the thread just to know WHAT is being cheap right now and how long.

(Just for the record - I don't get money from them. I just like their books and think it's a good offer if they reduce prices by half for the eBooks.)
