Delivering Deals to Your Inbox

I'm a sucker for deals, especially when they are local. And because the majority of my life revolves around my favorite city, New York City, I'm always willing to test out a service that connects me to deals right in my backyard.

I recently came across LivingSocial Deals, which offers deep discounts (50% or more in most cases) at restaurants, stores, theatres, and other local hotspots. It's like Groupon but better.

Here's how it works:

• Sign up to receive daily deals emailed to you directly. 
• Purchase the deal of your choice.
• If you get three of your friends to buy the same deal, you get it for free!
• Redeem it.

Right now, LivingSocial is available to deal seekers in Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York, Raleigh, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, and D.C.
