I just thought I'd give groupon a spin to see what the buzz was about. It has a pretty slick landing page that enticed an email address out of me. V-day is coming up and there was an FTD $40 coupon or "Groupon" available for $20 so I thought what the hell, my wife needs some flowers, why not? I click to purchase, it asks me for my basic info, including an email address and CC info. I complete the form and..
Sorry, this email is already in use by another account (or something like that)
Frickin' form: completely blank. Was I supposed to check my email first and create an account? If so, why did it let me get to the order page. So I check my gmail, even the spam folder, and nothing. Even if I signed up a long time ago, an email would be in my archive.
Should I fill it out again with a different email address? Sure... I got time to write this comment, right?
I guess if I end up using this thing more than once, then that will prove the hole bubble charge false. But so far it's not looking good.
Sorry, had to rant.
Update: blank page with window.location.href = "/mygroupons"; after completing the purchase. I sh*t you not. Chrome on Windows, people!
