abellParticipantI’ve used it a few times. I did not see the news story on Google regarding it. It’s just a place that sells one item per day (the item is for sale for 24 hours, if you want it, you buy it that day, you try to buy it tomorrow it will be something else). They will email you the item each day that is for sale, so you don’t always have to check their website. You don’t pay a thing unless you actually want to buy the item for that day. And they have the stipulation that the item will only be sold if at least a certain amount of people buy, and so far, anytime I’ve looked at an item, it got enough people that have bought it. I usually only buy things from them once or twice a month, as a lot of the things for sale I am not interested in. You usually get about 50% off items. Items vary, lots of spas, tours, lessons, admissions, restaurants, and sometimes retail stores. I have never had any problems redeeming a Groupon with a company. I have read online that it’s not profitable for companies. It’s expensive marketing; Groupon keeps half of whatever you pay and then gives the rest to the company (so if you pay $25 for a store credit for $50, the store gets $12.50, and has to give you $50 worth of product). But my take on that is if companies want to use that type of marketing, I might as well use it.

December 1, 2010 at 7:22 AM in reply to: OT: How to handle my current lease if by chance I close this month? #634444abellParticipantLegal ways to break your lease and not have to pay the remainder of it:
1. Figure out something in your place makes the place uninhabitable (but considering you’ve been there a long time, unless something recently broke and wasn’t fixed, that may not be a valid option). A list of uninhabitable things and other ways to want your landlord to get you out is at this site:http://www.caltenantlaw.com/breaklease.htm
2. Find a new renter for the month of January (talk to your landlord about it, figure out what the rent will be and if it will be transfer of the current lease or if it will be a new one, then post it on Criaglist, the San Diego Reader, UT, and start showing the place). You will still probably have to pay some turnover fees, but it shouldn’t be a whole months rent (assuming you find someone that had decent credit and the landlord approves).
I am not a lawyer, I am a renter and have taken over someone else’s lease.
