The fact that you used them as a gift is particularly interesting. Obviously, the value for us is to raise our brand awareness, so the more people made aware by one discounted purchase the better. I am lucky in that my product is almost always used in conjunction with half a dozen or more people besides the purchaser, so it has word-of-mouth built-in, but use as a gift stretches that one person further. I am actually friends with the owner of a Groupon clone. She told me that she thought for most business owners it wasn't a great deal, but due to the "viral" nature of my product, it would probably come down on the positive side for us.
