“Sometimes it's a good deal”

Tracey N.
3/30/17

You should always check to see what the real price of the items are before buying a Groupon. Lot of their stuff is just regular price but with some gimmick added on. Other than that, usually they have good deals. I still buy from them often.

“Failed to deliver theatre voucher”

Stuart K.
12/12/24

Theatre voucher failed to appear. After about two hours of online chat we were told the problem would be investigated which would likely take 48-72 hours. The show started in 2 hours. Attached picture shows order still processing an hour after the show began. Utterly incompetent and useless.

"Top or Flop" for me. Just make sure you are careful about the details.

Tip for consumers:
Read the details, especially if offers seem to good to be true...

Not for people who don't live in the metro area, participating businesses are too far out
