A couple of weeks ago, I joined groupon.

It is an interesting new company that provides targeted coupons for a specific area.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groupon

I was a little slow to sign up, but it has been a good service that seems to be growing.

Since then, I have received many coupons from many small businesses, some we did not know about.


My wife is taking a knitting class from a really great fabric art store.

Several coupons from handyman, and service people.

All of the companies are small business, that seem to be getting some new customers.

I was just curious if anyone here has advertised their work there?

Thanks
Michael

Interesting article. I have no stake in them, but I have talked to a couple of people that advertise their small business with success.

Thanks for the link
