I recently discovered Groupon.com, which is a site featuring deep discounts on fun things to do, good restaurants, and services in different cities. The discounts are generally quite huge (recent deals have included, $49 for 6 Pilates Reformer classes (reg $180), $50 for a photo shoot with a professional photographer (reg $500), or for those of us who want to go bare we can buy 3 laser hair removal sessions for $149, original value of $465!). How can they offer such deep discounts? “Collective Buying Power”, hence Groupon. Geddit?

If you like the day’s deal, just click on the “Buy” button! All offers end at midnight unless a limited number are available. If enough people sign up to buy the Groupon, the deal is on! If not enough people want in on the bargain, no one gets it – but no one is charged. Sometimes you’ll see a side offer available. Sporting events and theatre tickets might be featured as side offers.

Check it out. Sign up and get some great deals!
