If you haven’t checked out Groupon yet, I would highly recommend it. It took me a while to finally take the dive and now I am hooked!
Groupon is a “Flash Deal” type of site, where there is a new deal each day. The deals can be up to 90% off, and I don’t usually less than 50% off deals. The ones for my area have been great and 3 out of 5 I usually want.
