Groupon $5 Bonus for Using Mobile App
We just got iPhones within the past couple of weeks and are new to the world of apps; however, both my wife and I installed the Groupon app on our phones to make it easy to see the daily deals on the go. This week I received an email from Groupon that if you make a purchase using your app on your mobile device by April 8, 2011, Groupon will give you $5 to use towards a future purchase.
Frequently asked questions regarding the promotion can be read here.
We are big proponents of Groupon. They have excellent deals that are worth taking advantage of to save some money. A lot of our purchases on Groupon have allowed us to try new places that we might not have known about prior. Perhaps my favorite reason that we keep returning to Groupon is their customer service. They make an extraordinary effort to help the customer. I have had several purchases where the company we bought went out of business, and Groupon has always been there for me to refund me my money without me even realizing the company went out of business. In addition, my sister recently purchases a Groupon, except in her account were the wrong vouchers for what she bought. So Groupon quickly refunded her the money she spent. The only downside to her situation is she missed out on actually getting the Groupon she purchased because they were no longer available.
I am going to have to give this offer a try over the next couple of weeks. In addition, I recommend shopping through your Discover Card portal for an additional 15% back on your purchase, as discussed here.
As of the time of this post, the Discover Card app does not allow you to use Shop Discover unfortunately. So you are not able to currently stack the offer on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod.
