Hilarious site with content fit for most any occasion. Not sure who writes a lot of the material but they do a wonderful job. I recommend this for anyone in dire need of a good laugh/wake-up to your day.

I put 4 stars but it's really about average for me. I did find some great deals on a few trips, some restaurant coupons, and movie stuff. I admit, that in my early uses of the site I got bit by my own oversight and not reading the fine print about how/when to use.

I have been caught with a few I didn't use for a variety of reasons and one time was an instance I had to reach out to Groupon. Customer service took a while to respond but I do say that they took care of my groupon and credited because the vendor was awful.

I feel a lot of times Groupon doesn't offer the right things when I need them nor do they seem to always choose the best vendors to hold the groupon for. Can't totally put that on them but I will to some degree.

All in all its' been a cool concept with some good success for me, and some failures but I would recommend giving it a try. Just be sure to be smart about things and read the full details of how you have to use the Groupon and if there are any restrictions.

Okay people, really? First, my personal experiences have been solid from No More. I ordered a wallet and a coffee mug for my girlfriend. The wallet looked great and has held up, the coffee mug has been through a lot since the gf is tough on about everything. I want to say before I ordered a watch at a good deal and it was pretty cheaply made and didn't last. I took a gamble because here's the kicker:

Look at the world we live in people. Really be honest with yourselves and think of the prices you see at major stores and online outside of the Amazons and Overstocks. They are ridiculously high for items that if they wanted to they could make more cheaply then they do and have them work. This is what we as consumers have been complaining about forever is "the prices of things are too damn high". So we catch a deal on a site like this and expect the world for under $20. I'm sorry, but that's a risk you take. They don't force these items down your throats, they put them out there and yes they do upsell them but you're the one clicking a button thinking you've got the best deal in the world. Just like everyone else in the world anymore, you don't consider the risks with this and expect everything to be safe.

My own experiences have been solid. I am weary of a lot of the products on the site (namely any electronic) but i'm also willing to buy some of these things on the smaller scale. Customer service issue complaints i understand because that can happen to any company whether your Macy's, Amazon, Neiman Marcus or Wal-mart. To you, I do feel bad because that shouldn't happen.

For those complaining about the quality and you overspending and not doing your own research and using common sense, please take this review to heart.

It's a solid site. I'd recommend it for "safe" items where you don't mind taking a gamble on the quality but know that they do have legitimate items that will make you happy and work. If you're looking for a laptop for $120 bucks or don't know what a "safe" item may be, I weep for what it is you actually bring to our society.

Thanks No-More Rack, you've done a solid enough job by me.
