GROUPON – Collective Buying Power Coming to Your City

My wife shared a link with me this evening that looks pretty interesting. It's a coupon and discount site called Groupon, but it's more than just coupons. It's a marketing tool as well and the idea is to swarm a location or establishment with business. What company wouldn't want that kind of attention?!

With coupons, you did like I did tonight and save a few bucks on a variety of different grocery items. Groupon let's you save real money on some really great stuff that you'd like to do, but you didn't want to spend the full price on it to do it.

Groupon was started by some folks in Chicago, just a short drive to north of Indianapolis and they did it so they could "enjoy all the great stuff in our hometown of Chicago". Sounds like a good enough reason for me.

Groupon has grown to over a million users who have collectively saved more than $25 million with the service. That's a pretty good track record for a site that hasn't been around very long at all.

Have some fun, save some money. Groupon continues to expand, soon it will be in your city if it's not already there now: Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Louisville, Memphis, Miami, Minneapolis/St.Paul, Nashville, New York, Omaha, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Pittsburgh, Portland, San Antonio, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Seattle, St. Louis, Tampa, and Washington DC.
