ethical deal

the success of groupon, which launched in vancouver earlier this year, has inspired many more group-buying sites to join the ranks. the premise for these sites is that an interesting deal (tickets to an event, credits at restaurants or stores) is offered at a significant discount, however, the deal is dependent on a minimum number of people signing on. once the minimum is reached, you get to enjoy the deal.

one of the most interesting sites to join the fold is ethical deal. the site was recently launched and it is committed to offering deals from local green companies.

i have been using sites like this for sometime now and i’ve found that it’s worth browsing through deals for other cities, as deals for online stores are not restricted to the city in which they’re offered. also, if you’re planning a trip, you might want to consider buying deals for the city you’re visiting; just remember to check the fine print for expiration dates.
