I wonder how many people, like myself, decided to stop buying Groupons (and similar products) because of the awareness that it was generally bad for the business for which it was being used. I would rather support my local businesses than save $10 or $15 and feed the monster.

80% of the time, if it is a Groupon for a physical product, I can find it on Amazon for the same price.

Services, well that's a different story.

Very few since in most cases the Groupon is good for the business.
