Their products and services are all local, but all over the place as to what. I think good, recognizeable, restaurants market through them, so they're genuinely good deals. The spa treatments or mineral makeups aren't my thing, though. They're almost all 50% off, or two-fers. Not as good as restaurant.com, but neither is it the calculation shell-game of automatically adding an 18% gratuity and charging tax on all of it, then taking the discount, or whatever. (And standing over you while you make out the check that still has the blank tip line on it.)
