Most people would have heard of Groupon, a deal-of-the-day website where you can buy local goods, services and events at bargain prices, usually 50-90% off the retail price. The popularity of Groupon and comparable sites have seen this type of business model quickly spread to Australia and there are now a number of local “Groupon Clones”, including one joint venture involving Microsoft and PBL Media. According to reports, business in this industry is booming and it’s win-win for both businesses and consumers!
For those traveling to Australia or currently residing there, we’ve put together a list of Australian group buying sites to help you find some great deals. Expect these sites to expand to more and more cities as their popularity soars in the near future.
