Groupon is the latest and greatest saving phenomenon in the Calgary, Alberta (AB) area. This social shopping service saves users a ton of money, while allowing them to try new products and services in the area. The idea is based on the concept of group purchasing, which provides bargaining power. In the case of Groupon, you are e-mailed a killer deal every day. The minimum savings is 50%, but some deals have yielded savings of up to 90%. Better yet, you’re able to buy locally and help support local businesses.

The types of business signing up to promote on Groupon Calgary include gyms, spas, restaurants, and lifestyle companies. Personally, I’ve been using Groupon for a couple months now, and I’ve saved a ton and purchased some very cool coupons. Purchasing and using Groupons is really simple, and the website and experience are exceptional.

How much does it cost to sign up? Zero. It’s free to sign up and unsatisfactory purchases are refunded 100%. No questions asked. I would highly recommend Groupon. You’ve probably already heard the hype anyways. I’m also a big fan on the iPhone app. It’s great, and you don’t have to deal with printing out coupons. To learn more about Groupon and sign up, visit the Groupon Calgary site!
