Groupon
« on: August 01, 2009, 11:44:35 AM »

Groupon is something that some of you may get use out of. Especially if you live in Los Angeles or Chicago.

Groupon.com is a place that basically gets a deal with some local establishment, whether sports tickets, food, memberships, or anything else. The deal is that "If we give you at least 300 (or whatever number) how much of a deal can you give my group of people?" So then you buy a voucher (groupon) for it. You then take it to the place and they give it whatever it is that the deal is about.

Like in Chicago you can get 64% off a 1 year membership to the Art Institute of Chicago. That means you just pay $40. That's a good deal. Looks like they needed 300 people to buy the voucher for the deal to work. Looks like right now they have over 4,000 people that have bought it.

Yep, got 2 memberships to the art institute already (it was the same yesterday).  I think I buy about one a week.  They've got some really great deals.

Clearly it's not arrogance, for arrogance would be a flaw.
