    Update - Sidebar no longer available, see the deals at either of these links:
    http://www.forumvancouver.com/pages/vancouvergroupbuy/
    http://feeds.feedburner.com/vancouvergroupbuy

    How do these Group Buy (Social Shopping) sites work?

    A new promotion or deal is posted on these websites for a local business. If enough people join/commit to the deal (hence, social shopping) within a limited time period then the deal becomes valid for everybody that committed and you get a coupon or voucher. You will only be charged if the deal becomes valid. We are currently following these social shopping websites: Groupon, Indulge Living, Teambuy, LivingSocial, Grooster, GoodNews, Steal the Deal, WagJag, SocialShopper, SwarmJam, Dealfind, TownHog, BCDailyDeals, HotDealsLive, WebPiggy, CityFlavr, Delight Daily, TooSave, The Daily Steal, Surrey, GoLowDeal, DealTicker and ethicalDeal.

    The deals below are updated automatically everyday, so check this post daily.
    HTML:
    <div class="dailydeal">
    <script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/vancouvergroupbuy?format=sigpro" type="text/javascript" ></script><noscript>

    <style>
    div.dailydeal {
    padding:5px 5px 0px 5px;
    border:2px solid #444;
    }
    </style>
    
    EDIT (10/10/2010): Due to the change in forum software, the daily deals won't be visible directly in this thread. I'm not sure if or when I will put the sidebar back. For now, visit one of these links.

    http://feeds.feedburner.com/vancouvergroupbuy

    EDIT (7/20/2010): The daily deals are visible ABOVE and to the RIGHT SIDE and are updated automatically. It has become rather labour intensive to update this thread manually so I will no longer be doing that.

    HOWEVER, for historical and price comparison purposes members are free to update this thread on their own! The easiest way is to simply copy and paste the feed above or on the side rather than using the outdated code below.
