<p>I took the plunge and bought a Nook, WiFi, 3G at Buy.com for $119…it’s refurbished from Barnes and Noble. I’ve been thinking about getting one for a while and couldn’t resist the price. </p>
<p>Love the Goupon Roundup! Thanks much for putting it together.</p>
<p>It comes with a 1 year warranty. Folks from another message board I visit have bought them very recently off ebay (from Barnes and Noble), they report that the Nooks look brand new, no scratches etc. I bought from Buy.com so I can return it if necessary. The return must take place within 14 days, so I will power it up and try it out asap. I think the ebay ones have a return option, someone bought one for their D, they are trying it out now, then will wrap it up (loaded with some books) for Christmas. When I checked ebay this morning, the price was up to $149 (buy it now), so I did a little web surfing.</p>
<p>I just looked at the Groupon roundup site and I’m a bit disappointed that not all the groupons are really national or on-line deals. Many are area specific, like an eye exam or pizza at a local place. Still, it is easier to go through there then to go through each city manually.</p>
<p>kathiep,
I do hope my link worked. The one that I go to has all the internet deals at the top–they’re listed by city in alpha order but not all the cities are listed because, as you state, otherwise you get the local pizza deal, or eye exam. Underneath that list comes the full list of every city, regardless of what type of deal is offered. So, I just looked and the first online deal today is Albany (a deal on wine) whereas when I scrolled down to the full list, the first deal is Akron and it’s a local deal.</p>
<p>^^If you go to the RoundUp site too early in the day, I think they have not had a chance to sort through the listings and so all you see is the total list. Try again later and the “national” listings are indeed at the top.</p>
<p>That’s right, archiemom. I post twice per day. The first one is a list of all the Groupon deals. Then I take the time to sort through them and figure out which are national deals for the second post. If you subscribe by email, you’ll get two emails: one notifying you when the ALL list is posted and another notifying you when the NATIONAL list is posted. And the time varies each day depending on my babies and when they wake. I take care of them first and then work on the site.</p>
<p>This was posted on another thread but it should be added here. Today, tomorrow and Saturday from 2-5 p.m. Starbuck’s is offering holiday beverages for buy-one-get-one-free.</p>
<p>Just got 24 cookies shipped to D for only $12 using Groupon Roundup. It’s supposed to be $22, but got a $10 coupon off for being “new to Groupon,” with a short expiration date. Figured I’d use it right away so it didn’t expire & D will love having cookies–she can bring it to wherever she ends up having Thanksgiving if I order them for her on Monday–shipped 2nd day air USPS included in the price!</p>
<p>If anyone needs new eyeglasses, coastalcontacts.com is running a sale today where the frames with basic lenses are FREE, and you only have to pay shipping and handling. It’s like $8 more for the scratch-proof coated lenses. Enter code 10KUSA at checkout.</p>
<p>I got a pair of Lacoste glasses for $12.60 Hopefully they look good when I get them, but if not, they have free shipping on returns.</p>
<p>There seems to be a nice Groupon for Nordstrom Rack. Look under Phili, Long Island, and/or Chicago. I don’t know which other cities might have this offering.</p>
<p>Thanks northeastmom. The Nordstom Rack is good for 3 days so maybe I would have seen it but it was news to me–I just bought it through Mr. Rebates which I also found out about on this thread. I love saving money :)</p>
<p>Keurig K-cups to make coffee at Macys. Normally $14.99 per box, I bought four at buy-one-get-one-free and then used a $10 off coupon. So a $59.96 value for $19.98.</p>
<p>puzzled, that sounds interesting. We buy K cups and my DH is the one who shops for price on this (I have no idea as to how much he pays for them). It is not only the price per box, but quantity per box that matter. My DH has found ordering online with an automatic reorder in (they send a shipment monthly) is the least expensive for us. I do think that Macys’ offer is a good way to try some flavors that one has not tried before.</p>
<p>The Macys boxes have 18 cups just like the ones at Bed, Bath & Beyond. Seventy two cups for $20 is a great deal. I normally buy them at BBB and use a coupon but I saw this offer in the Macys flier and decided to stock up a bit. I am rather a bargain queen but was impressed with myself on this one. And yes, I tried a new flavor - donut shop.</p>
<p>I have no idea what my DH pays for these. I know that we get boxes of 24 and they have stretch wrap around 2 boxes, so they bundle them in groups of 48.</p>
