Group Buy Deals

UPDATE: Just came home tonight from redeeming six Team Save coupons on a Chinese buffet dinner. Burp.

Update from Fab Find: "The Madness is Officially Over." Yay! Time to get on with life and over with iPad envy. Not everybody wins, but we all learnt a lesson, hopefully! Let's share our experience of the day in class, okay?



Sometimes, buying things as a group can save you a lot of money. Instead of one customer buying a buffet meal for $13, how about 100 people buying the same meal for $6 each? Or maybe 1,000 people? Many businesses love this idea. Customers, too! This is known as economies of scale. Here are few great group-buying sites:
  1. Fab Find - Just for today, they're offering an i-Pad for $10! But it's a rush to get it.
  2. Here's an email update from Fab Find: Now, in regard to some of the questions that we have received about today's deal, here's a recap:
    1.) Is this for real? Yes! We really are selling iPads for $10. We would actually get to sell more if everyone eased up on the refresh button.
    2.) We've got a limited number of iPads to sell today. We're selling more than 10, less than 100. That's all we're saying.
    3.) The deal is technically live. When we're able to re-open the site, we'll release quantities slowly, a few iPads at a time in small batches over the course of the day.
    4.) If you want to know when more iPads have been added to our site, follow us on Twitter or watch our Facebook Fan Page.
    5.) If you miss out on buying an iPad, we're going to give away the last one to the customer who makes the best plea. Just go to our Facebook Fan Page and tell everyone why you deserve the last iPad. That just about covers it for now. Thanks again for your overwhelming interest...and as always, stay fab!
