sad to say i can't redeem my voucher (ipl w/ bleach from dermaesthetique) i bought from cleverbuy. di lang daw travel deals ang apektado lahat daw ng deals ng cleverbuy di na daw tinatanggap kasi di na daw sila binabayaran. good thing di kalakihan nawala saken. haizz.. alangan namang habulin ko pa mukhang wala din naman mangyayari. :(
i don't care how many mistakes i made in the past and will be making in the future... for as long as you're here, i'll always be reminded that somehow...... i choose to be right....... :)

I used to purchase a lot of vouchera from different group buying sites. mostly food and services. ok naman so far. Since good naman yung experience I decided to purchase a videocam from groupon, girlteki ang merchant. for pickup lang sya so we went to MOA. only to find out na di alam ng girlteki yung promo and we were asked to come back kinabukasan pa. naku super bad experience. pero nakuha naman namin. next item i got was the shoe rack from deal amigos. if i base it there super prompt sila sa delivery. tapos i saw this set of bowls sa groupon binili ko for delivery. mag two months na di pa sya nadeliver without providing any feedback kung asan naba. good thing hubby purchased shisha na ni pick up nya sa groupon office sinabay nya na ang bowls ko. I also tried metrodeal pero food and massage lang. sa ngayon stop muna ako sa pagpurchase ng deals nakakadala kasi what happened to cleverbuy. buti nalang at di ako nattempt bumili dun.
It is impossible to love and to be wise.

hayz, ako ata walang kaswerte swerte sa ganito....ngayon naman yung sa groupon, di pa rin nadedeliver yung organizer na binili ko P575.00 din yun....followed it up directly dun na sa merchant, sumagot naman pero yung groupon office, wala, dedma....

so far tumigil muna ko pagbili...nakakadala talaga, naiwan na lang sa aking coupon yung sa zong at saka sa hecky's lechon meal....i wish maganda maging experience ko.....after the brouhaha sa barrio fiesta...at saka sa derma spa skin & slimming center for 6 sessions of diamond feel with photo rejuvenation etc.

sad naman yan. sa totoo lang kasi sobrang liit talaga ng mark up ng merchants under group deals. kaya dapat yung mga merchants if they cannot provide the usual quality of their services or products under group deals, wag na lang silang magpafeature kasi instead na makaboost sa sales and name nila, mas makakasira pa. My sister was offered by one groupdeal site as a merchant, grabeng baba ng proposal nila. parang not worth the effort. pero sobrang kinulit siya at nag adjust din ng konti sa price kaya tinanggap na din ng kapatid ko.

^i agree sis, ok na rin ako kung konti or dun nila i-adjust sa servings, pero wag naman yung quality ng food or services nila.......

eto, ayoko na atang ituloy ang hawak kong voucher sa derma spa skin & slimming center for 6 sessions of diamond peel with photo rejuvenation whitening therapy and 1 free ultra sonic anti aging eye treatment and 24k gold eye gel mask, valued at P22,000 pero they are offering it for P1,774, nagbayad lang ako online ng P100. parang gusto ko munang tawagan kung anong difference ng services nila sa voucher holder saka sa regular na nagbabayad.....

just used 3 vouchers of ace water spa from cash cash pinoy for father's day. although free pala ang daddies nun pag 3 kayo, ok pa rin kasi discounted naman. no issues experienced at all. was able to enjoy 4 hours of water therapy the same way like when you pay in full.

my advice to our sisses:
>call the merchant for details first before buying any deal
>do not give in to impulse buying
>do not hoard
>avoid buying gadgets with delivery, as well as travel packages
 
feel free to add more tips!  ;)

just bought 3 vouchers from metrodeal yesterday. bakit ganon na payment policy nila ngayon, kailangan ng mg-provide ng soft copy of credit card billing statement, complete with full name, address & credit card number...hindi ba unsafe un? :o

if you see discounted accommodation, contact the hotel/resort directly to inquire about their rack rates or kahit check nyo ang published rates nila sa mga websites nila.

Ilang times na kasi na nakikita ko claiming ang mga vouchers ay 50%-70% off pero hindi naman pala.
minsan mas mababa pa if directly sa hotel/resort ka na lang magbook.

or sometimes misleading sasabihin na (for example 70%) daw pero if you compute based sa actual rates sa website eh 40% off lang - although mas mababa pa rin - pero hindi pa rin honest, kasi sinasabi na 70% off when in fact it is not.

kaya always double check!
So many things to do... So little time
