Y’all. I cannot wait to tell you more about this conference. I have found my people—everyone in this room can squeeze blood from a stone. It’s a beautiful thing.
Anyway, I was just checking Groupon really quickly and noticed that the Phoenix Groupon is $25 for $50 to Coldwater Creek, so you might want to snap that one up before it disappears.
Also, if any of you are here in Chicago, I should be part of a segment on Save Up on your local NBC ABC (whoops) news tonight. Just in case you want to see the extreme dorkitude that powers this site, in person.
Oh, I sure hope they offer this one again sometime. I’d love to partake, but I absolutely cannot spend money on anything but essentials right now. You hear me, Groupon? Offer it again, in a few months!
Actually, they really dropped the ball on this one.
I bought it Friday and couldn’t use it until Sunday – because they sold them without really having worked out whether or not it was a coupon code or an offer code. Mixed messages from THEIR staff kept showing up on their message board about the deal, (yes, it counts for shipping, wait, 2 hours later we say no, it doesn’t!. Enter it in in the coupon field! No, enter it in in the gift card field! No, enter it in as an offer code! Can’t use it with any other offers though then, HA HA on you!) and, the email reply I got from Customer Service was TOTALLY wrong (to the point of just sounding like she was making something up!).
When they finally got it figured out, 3 of the 6 items I wanted were sold out online. I was majorly annoyed and will be thinking twice about Groupons in the future, that’s for sure.
