The many of you that know me, know that I'm a sucker for a good deal. If I can't find it cheap, I'll ask my cousin NovemberSunflower to help me out. She's definitely a great person to learn from.
Lately I've been finding all kinds of deals. My favorite place to find them? LivingSocial.com. Why? Because the deals come to me! Every morning, before I even get out of bed, I check my email on my phone to see all the deals that I can choose from. Let me tell you how it works before I get into all the things I love about it.
Firstly, you go to LivingSocial.com and click to sign up. Then you can choose your city and any other cities you want to find deals in. I've lived in a lot of places since we're a military family, so I have a bunch on my account. After putting in your basic information- no credit card number needed to set up the account since it's free- and your e-mail address you're all set up. All you have to do then is wait for your e-mails every morning to see what your deals are.
Personally, I have my current city, three surrounding cities, Denver, Colorado Springs, NYC Uptown, NYC Downtown, Buffalo, and Dallas added on my account. If you wouldn't use the deal but know some one who would like it, you can give it as a gift. I've bought pedicures, flowers, and a couple of other things for friends and family members in other cities and they've loved it. It's very easy to use and the deals are great.
While deals are great, it's only a true deal if it's something you needed to get anyway. Can LivingSocial.com help you get a true deal? I'm not sure. I don't know your specifics, so I can't guarantee you that this will save you money on things you really need. I can, however, tell you what LivingSocial.com has done for my family by sharing two examples with you.
Deal 1: My husband works really hard. He's the reason I get to stay home and go to school to get my teaching degree while taking care of the kids. Yup, he's pretty wonderful. But, he's not the deal, so you can't have him. haha. Well, this great husband hurt his back and has been in a lot of pain lately. This is when LivingSocial.com comes into play. One of the deals I got to buy was an appointment with a chiropractor for an alignment analysis and an hour long massage for only $25. That's a total savings of about $130! It took a few days to make an appointment, but only a week after buying the deal my husband is at the appointment right now. I'm looking forward to seeing him walk through the door all happy and feeling healthy again.
Deal 2: Do you go into your silverware drawer to find out that your silverware has gotten all warped and weird looking? I'm pretty sure anyone with kids, or someone in the house that uses regular spoons to scoop ice cream, knows just what I mean. Well, I have that problem. And thanks to my dishwasher not drying the dishes during the "dry" setting, they got kind of rusty. Luckily for me, LivingSocial.com sent me a deal where I got $60 of flatware for only $18. And it's awesome flatware, too. Anyone ever hear of a knork? I hadn't. I'll post the link. It's a fork that you can use to cut your food just as well as a knife. The flatware comes with knorks (since the deal is from the knork website) and they are made of titanium. No rust! I'm extremely excited and will be reviewing them on here as soon as I put them to the test. But, this deal couldn't have come at a better time. The link for the knorks flatware is http://www.knork.net/.
These are just two of the deals that LivingSocial.com has given me over the past few months. I think it's well worth the bunch of e-mails in the morning. In fact, it's a better way to wake up than a cup of coffee. Ok, many of you are probably yelling at me through the computer saying that I've lost my mind. I challenge you to prove me wrong! Try LivingSocial.com and after a month of deals let me know which one you do first- coffee or your LivingSocail.com e-mails. The savings may surprise you!
Well, here's my latest Buzz. Anything you're buzz-ing about?
