Fishhead. Is Groupon a must have out for a +EV lifestyle?

It's a must have for any US coupon cutter. Hopefully they stay within the US

All I get from Groupon is offers for half price spa days, a dozen cupcakes and stupid shit.

It's ok

Many, many better sites on the net.

OP interested in +EV lifestyle and specifically requests feedback from FH, complaining about uselessness of Groupon. FH pops in and says tons of better sites than Groupon but refuses to name any. Quality post

Seems OK but they mostly send out a lot of deals for things you don't need anyway.

I got one $50 at some really good BBQ place for $25 and one $10 for movie ticket, popcorn and soda at a dinner theater. Other than that, it's all salons, spas and girl stuff.

www.restaurant.com has some good deals.. sign up for their email stuff

**daneault23** · 03-01-11, 11:55 PM

You can get gift cards that are worth like $25 for $2

I;ve been on Groupon for about 6 months, haven't seen one thing remotely worth using.

100% crapola

I've bought a couple of Groupons over the year as most are worthless, yesterday's Groupon for our area is 67% off a month of classes at Little Gym in Edina. Restaurant.com is great and I use them much more often.

BANK RECOMMENDATION...................

Ally Bank

This Internet bank won't charge you monthly maintenance fees or require you to keep a minimum balance.
And you can use any ATM for free because Ally charges no fees and reimburses you for any front-end charges.
While you would be lucky to find an interest rate of 0.25% at the megabanks, Ally's Interest Checking account, which launched last year, currently offers a rate of 1.05% APY (annual percentage yield) if you keep a balance of at least $15,000 in your account. If your balance is under $15,000, you still get a rate of 0.5%. One downside: You can't easily deposit checks at a branch or via smartphone. But Ally does give customers postage-paid envelopes to mail in deposits. You can also move money between Ally checking account and other banks free of charge.

Fish...dude....I'm not sure you realize it, but these people are making fun of you. They aren't really trying to live your lifestyle.
