‘Group buying’ drives down prices.
The founder of a big discount website comes up with new wheeze03-03-2010
Mark Pearson, founder of the discount website, www.MyVoucherCodes.co.uk has come up with a new way to save money – www.Groupola.com The idea is that ‘Group Buying Power’ will help us save huge amounts of money. The concept works due to the site’s ability to bargain a deal with regional and national companies and retailers. The retailer then promises a discount, as long as a certain number of users commit to buying at the discounted rate – known as the ‘tipping point’. If the ‘tipping point’ is not met, the deal is void, and there is no financial obligation for the consumer, the site or the company offering the discount. There is no upper limit on the number of consumers who can commit to a deal, unless otherwise stated. The website promotes regional and national deals in eight UK cities at present, namely London, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Birmingham, Brighton, Liverpool, Manchester and Bristol. Deals so far on the website include between 50-90% off restaurants, theatres, experience days, salons, spa days and more. If you try this out drop me a line and let me know how you got on.
