“In addition to offering members-only, 72-hour sales, Mertado encourages a high degree of social interaction through product sharing, user comments and product & content videos.”
I found the site very easy to navigate. The pages loaded quickly which is important to me because I don’t have a lot of extra time. You can see by the screenshot below that the site has a very simple layout which makes it all the better.
No Hassle Sign-Up
Signing up to the Mertado site is quick and simple. You can sign up via Facebook, which is what I did, or email. I love that you can sign up via Facebook because to be honest, I have way too many passwords to try to remember.
Refer Friends, Earn Mertado Cash
Upon entering one of the first things you see is that you are able to get credit (Mertado cash) for friends that order or sign up as well.
- For every friend that signs up, you get $1 Mertado Cash (up to 10 friends).
- For every friend that orders, you get $15 Mertado Cash (no limit).
Mertado has a ton of products to choose from and they’re not brands you’ve never heard of either. I loved looking through their Melissa and Doug toys (which ends Mon 11/28). They have a large variety available and the prices are amazing. I didn’t see anything over 15.99 and for Melissa and Doug toys that’s a great deal.
Coral Springs Plush Blanket
My family and I also received a super snuggly Coral Springs plush blanket from Mertado.com in order to judge the quality of the products they offer. Our blanket is burgundy which is perfect because it matches our bedroom. I was expecting something different when I first opened up the blanket because it looks similar to other blankets I have owned, but I was wrong. This blanket is much lighter, flexible, and just all around super soft. Even though it’s light-weight it still keeps you plenty warm. It’s the perfect blanket for the kids and I to throw on us when we wake up to the cold Michigan mornings.
The lovely folks at Mertado.com have a blanket for one of my readers as well! So after you head on over to Mertado.com make sure you come back here and enter to win.
Prize: 1 reader will win a Coral Springs Plush Blanket- $35 ARV (like the one pictured above) – color & size (mine was full/queen) may vary (mine was burgundy).

It looks like something I would check periodically.
Honestly, I’d probably never use this site. I’ve signed up for so many deal sites and I think I’ve purchased one thing.
