10 Online Offer Websites (Groupon, GoogleOffers etc.) or How Maddie Became Famous

Living Social and Granddaughter Maddie

I don't know about you but I thought it would be hard to keep up with all the discount websites online.  Boy was I wrong.   Sites like LivingSocial or Groupon will keep you posted with emails and all you need to do is fill out the information online, pay with a card and print the certificate at home.  How easy is that. And, it turns out there is a whole business sector that revolves around gift certificates and gift cards.  I began doing some research this morning.  Here are some websites you might want to take a look at:

1. Google Offers.com 
2. Groupon.com  
3. TravelZoo (Portland)
4. Restaurant.com
5. GiveAnything.com
6. Gift Certificates.com
7. Gift Zip.com
8. Plastic Jungle (buy sell exchange gift cards)
9. Gift Cards4Less
10. GiftCards.com

Yes, I am a senior citizen and yes I do use these websites. I like a good deal!  But better yet, I now have a personal connection to one of those sites.

I received an email from my daughter-in-law yesterday.  She was surprised when she discovered that my beautiful granddaughter is the poster girl for an ad on Living Social here in Portland, Oregon.  Maddie was only 7 when this picture was taken...she is 8 now so she is much older.  And already she is famous!  Living Social is living up to it's name.

We love websites like Living Social. Obvious riding lessons are not for everyone but for the person that is looking for this service this would be a great buy.   My husband just bought a case of wine with a $75 Groupon gift certificate at a local winery.  Our Son-in-law will get a gift certificate from Travel Zoo for his 50th birthday.  We ate at a local restaurant night before last on a Restaurant.com certificate.  In fact it has become a world where you are a fool if you don't check to see what discount is available.  Everything from an airline gift card to horse back riding lessons are on sale...all you need to do it look.

So Maddie, good for you.  You have managed to be famous AND you are a part
