Tips & Ideas
These are some excellent discounts as you’re saving 15%-30% which for many of these will be profitable for reselling. When buying from Groupon, you can pay with Groupon gift cards loaded to your account that themselves could’ve been bought at a discount.
Be sure to click through from a shopping portal too as you should earn cashback/rewards. These all seem to be listed under Local Deals which mean they should earn the higher tier of cashback on portals.
Am I the only one who got their groupon account shut down for trying to buy these?
Me as well. But I did first on my account and then spouses account with different billing address. Spouse account got shutdown.
Groupon said it was “unusual” for a customer to buy 5 items over a 2 hour period. WTF?!
What happened to your orders, did the card balance get revoked? (responding to both in case there aren’t notifications for replies-to-replies)
The initial orders were all canceled without charging my credit card. I was able to get the account reinstated and since then was able to place orders without cancellation. But these are bad gift cards they are selling. The CVS card I got was already used up back in 2017. I contacted Groupon and they immediately issued a refund.
You are lucky, I bought a CVS card that was used in 2018.
