Groupon

We were given information on Groupon, as a marketing tool for our office. I checked it out and it's actually a really great concept. We're pursuing it for the office, but being the bargain shopper I am, I decided to subscribe to the deal e-mails as well.

The way it works is this: Each day they post a deal online for something in your city. If enough people are interested and take the deal, everyone gets it. So today, a spa was featured in my city. $25 gets you a $50 certificate at the spa. When you buy the deal, you do an online purchase with your credit card. The card is not run unless enough people sign up for the deal. Enough sign up, the card is run and you get a certificate e-mailed to you.

Kind of an interesting concept. I was impressed. And... thought you might be too. We all could use a deal! Here's the link: http://www.groupon.com/r/uu824688.

The link is unique to me -- they give Groupon bucks for referrals. So... go get your Groupon! :)

P.S. Just in case anyone is wondering... I have changed the litter box every other day since my resolution post. Not too bad, right?
