GROUPON: 12/29 Daily Round-Up

.

Below I have listed today's non-city-specific Groupon deals (i.e. primarily online deals that anyone can buy and use regardless of where they live).

To make these deals even sweeter, Groupon and many of the retailers featured on Groupon are now on Ebates, so you can earn cash back on both your Groupon purchase AND on your purchase when you redeem your Groupon if you go through Ebates!  How awesome is that?!  To read more about Ebates, check out my post about Saving on Online Shopping with Ebates!  To read more about Groupon and other Daily Deal Sites, go here.   

**See the instructions at the bottom of this post for how to get the best deal!**

NOTE: Some of these deals are listed under "Side Deals" or "Deals Nearby" on the right hand side of the city's Groupon page. Also, please be sure to read the "fine print" for each groupon to ensure that you understand the terms of the deal.
