Long time readers will know it’s not really our three year blog anniversary, we’ve actually been around for more like four years. But the reason I titled this post as such is because three years ago we made the decision to remove all the credit card affiliate links from the site. If you haven’t read the post detailing our reasons behind that change before, I really recommend you do.
One of the great things to come out of that decision was that we’ve been able to build a community around this site, as readers have been more willing to share information/deals with us and each other. I think part of that comes from the fact that we try to put our readers first and part of it comes from the fact that we’re willing to listen to our readers and adjust the site based on their feedback (whether it be positive feedback or constructive criticism). I never thought we’d have the audience and reach we do when I first started out and I’m committed to try to use that to improve the lives of the readers.
I’m also eternally grateful for finding Chuck. Without him it’s likely that I’d no longer be blogging and it’s a privilege getting to read his content on this site. I’m also thrilled to have Sirtheta & Don L adding their unique takes on a regular basis. The biggest thanks must be left to each and every reader, especially if you’ve ever left a helpful comment or shared a deal or some insider knowledge. Without the regular contributions of readers this site would not be what it is today. If you’re a regular reader and have never commented/shared a deal, please don’t be a stranger!
Thanks for reading and indulging me on this selfish post and here’s to three more years!

Love it!
I honestly hope you guys make enough from your AdSense revenue to at least make it worth having 4 people on staff. You guys are incredible, and have literally made my family $4K richer over the last few years.... and I wish you and your families the best.
Thanks, Chris!
Im down with the DoC...yeah u know me! (Cue 90s hip hop music)
To another year, keep up the good work #TeamDoC
You are my go to source for reliable info!! Keep up the good work and congrats!
Hey, Congratulations. Thank you both!
A great site. Invaluable information for our financial health and advancement.
You are deconstructing the banking culture. For me the only comparable site in value is the fantastic CPFB itself - for as long as it will last. >_<
I always wondered why other blogs never replied when people referenced your HIGHER offers.
INTEGRITY!!
A timely place to thank the doc once more. Discovered this site some 10 months back and it has been profits galore since then.
Happy Bday!! Love this site!
Happy b-day! I'd like to know...who is Chuck?
He's one of the authors on the site. You've probably read many posts by him.
congrats and thanks for the solid content all the time!
