This is my favourite deals website.
I usually buy only restaurant deals, and I am often happy with my experience. After taxes and generous tips, I don't feel that I save 50%, but I still appreciate a good discount. It's nice to try local eateries that I would otherwise never go to. Sometimes, they offer discounts to very nice places.
I would not buy their products, however. I know Teambuy is selling junk products and I have no intention of finding how good Groupon's products are.

I have used their service several times, my experience was often good, but this is because I do my research.
They have two types of deals: local businesses and products. DO NOT BUY PRODUCTS FROM THEM! Their products are low quality chinese junk that can be bought for a lower price from aliexpress.com. You can check, they take the info and pictures directly from aliexpress. I personally bought a few items from aliexpress and was so disappointed by the horrendous quality that I never even bothered to use them. I later saw the same products on teambuy (only for a higher price) and knew who I was dealing with.
As for their local business deals, those are rare where I live and are a hit and miss. For instance they had a few restaurant deals, for restaurants that deserve to be closed to begin with. I did like the deals they had for the Lindt outlet boutique as I had a chance to buy good chocolate for half the price. Really, that Lindt deal is the only reason I give them 2 stars instead of 1.

I ordered three products from there: a leather bag, a pair of shoes, and an evening dress. Their merchandise is of very low quality. The only item that's okay is the bag, and that's probably because I paid as much for it as I would have paid at home. The shoes and the dress, however, I took one look at them and threw them into the donation bin. The quality of both items was horrible, despite all the 900+ positive reviews, and the size of shoes was wrong. After that, I decided not to buy from this website again. I don't like wasting money on junk.
