My First Groupon Purchase

Every morning when I logged in to my email, the word Groupon always appear in my inbox, without fail one. I thought of unsubscribing it because I notice that most offers are normally from KL, Penang, Johor but NONE for IPOH. I can only buy the vouchers for others and not for myself, I was thinking...

Most days, I just delete the Groupon email without even opening to see the offers.. but last Friday, i don't know why I opened it. Maybe too boring kua at that moment.... and... once opened, I lost RM39.90 to Groupon....  They caught me on this offer here below....
A Travel Kit offer ... but hey, not all the 5 items here for that price...
Only 3 products, cleanser, toner and a moisturiser...
You know, I bought the voucher on Friday... and just a moment ago, I only read through the contents of each product... and I am astonished to see that they only gave 15ml and 10ml for the toner and moisturiser respectively!! hahahaa....  No wonder so cheap.... I think can last me one week or so only.....

But I have not redeem the products yet... I hope I can redeem them at the CN outlet here in IPOH....

Anyone bought any vouchers from Groupon before??

  5. I am a strong supporter.. hehehe.. I buy meal coupons mostly.. can save some marr when eating out during weekends. One thing you need to do: read carefully on the terms and conditions and what they have to offer before clicking the buy button. :)

  6. Cheap? I read in somebody's blog about buying so many of these coupons and ending up spending more than necessary. In a way, it's true - the best way to save money is not to spend... Right?

  14. I'm a huge fan of Groupon & other online deals! Mainly, I purchase coupons related to food & hair. Since I do hair treatment very often, the salon coupons are great for my maintenance :) Happy Shopping, dear!

  15. I don't know how this works, and have not used it. Did you buy this kit, or find out about how meager it is too late? I guess it would be good for traveling.
