Any one used it?

Is it as straight forward as it appears - join, get coupon, get discount?

If anyone is thinking about joining, please let me send you an invite as I think it gets me free credits.

Yes. Some excellent deals, though they are very much geared towards women as they're mainly health & beauty deals, certainly in Glasgow

Once and it was all above board.

Cheap t-shirts for Christmas presents. £8 coupon bought £30 of credit plus postage IIRC on-line

used it once and the restaurant refused to honour the deal. if you mentioned groupon they were magically full, if you didnt say anything you could book. got fed up and complained to groupon, eventually got money back but made me slightly wary of them.

For restaurants I use: http://www.gourmetsociety.co.uk/

Never had it refused and the restaurants it lists are all pretty damn good.
£45 for the card and book, which gets you a two-for-one deal at the listed places.
So if you use it a couple of times a year it pays for itself.
