 * Hi,
    Not a big surprise as there has not been an update in 3 years, but this 
   plugin generates a critical error and breaks the site if you are running php 
   7.3
 * The error is:
    preg_replace_callback(‘/\\ in /wp-content/plugins/deals-engine/
   includes/class-wps-deals-shortcodes.php on line 123,

 * OK, I found the solution.
 * Replace:
    $deals_status_data = ”;
 * with:
    $deals_status_data = array();
 * in /wp-content/plugins/deals-engine/includes/class-wps-deals-shortcodes.php
