How to Use Groupon Coupons
Using Groupon coupons allows you to receive significant discounts at local restaurants, spas, department stores and other establishments. Groupon advertises daily coupons based on your geographical area; the company has a presence in many moderate-sized cities. Groupon works by attracting a specific number of customers to buy the daily coupon. If too few people sign up for the coupon, nobody pays or receives the deal. Using Groupon coupons is an easy process that allows you to save money at local businesses.

Tips & Warnings
Purchase Groupons to give as gifts for your friends. Check the specific offer to ensure Groupon gifts are acceptable at that business.
Many Groupon coupons cannot be used with other promotional offers. Most businesses do not redeem coupons for cash or give store credit if you do not use the entire amount in one visit.
