How to Save Money on Groupon

• Sign up for a Groupon account and register for their newsletter and you’ll get a 25% off Groupon promo code for your first purchase.
• Refer a friend and get $10 in Groupon Bucks once they buy their first deal.

• Get free shipping on Groupon when you spend at least $35 on a product or look for a free shipping coupon code on this page.

And if you can’t be bothered to check the site regularly, definitely subscribe to their emails, and follow Groupon on Facebook or Twitter so you don’t miss out on any great specials or Groupon coupon codes. What Promo Codes Does Groupon Offer? Look for 20-25% off coupons for local deals and Groupon Getaways. There are often exclusions to those offers, so make sure you read the fine print. Occasionally there will also be targeted promotions available to certain Groupon subscribers, such as $10 off any order.
