Does anyone else use these services?
Travel zoo local deals and group on, have massive discounts on things like spa, restaurants and days out as well as other stuff. It is simply amazing and have purchased a few deals in the last couple of months.
If you don't know about it here's the links.

Me, Daz and Lopkat are heading to a Nottingham comedy club soon courtesy of Groupon. Dinner, drinks, comedy show and nightclub entry for £8.50 a head. Yes please

Yeah, I've been using groupon/live social/keynoir for a year or so - got some great discounted products (including a smythson notebook for £1.75) & a couple of Spa days/restaurant deals/cinema tickets for £1, etc really cheaply. Just be careful though, one of the Hilton Spa deals we did, we were treated like discount customers, which made it a bit rubbish and I wouldnt have gone if I'd known. Great for most stuff though.

Yup, I use Groupon and Tickles, get lots of cheap massages and money off restaurants - places we actually use too.

Not yet, but heard of Groupon courtesy their IPO attempt. Good luck to them!

We've all been offered TasteCards at work - 50% off a lot of chain restaurants (though annoyingly a lot of the offers are 2-4-1 deals, which is no use to me).
