Group Buying Sites Review

Group Buying in the Philippines

The group buying phenomenon has taken our country by storm and has gone viral over the past months. These group buying websites are offering discounts on everything from restaurants, spas, beauty products, to family vacations – some even give up to 90 percent off on their deals.

Group buying first blossomed in the U.S. when Groupon Inc. launched in November 2008. Since then, Groupon has become a social media phenomenon expanding to 46 countries with 70 million users worldwide. In the Philippines, group buying sites began to increase this year as people have started noticing ads from Facebook, Twitter and email marketing.

Group Buying Reviews

I’ve seen these group buying sites for quite some time now and I was hesitant to purchase any items from them until recently when we tried it out at Xin Tian Di. The coupon was purchased from Deal Grocer and we were able to get 50% off on our bill. Ever since, my wife got addicted to it and started visiting and subscribing to almost all group buying sites. I still remind her to be cautious in purchasing things online as some websites might be just scammers.

We need to be aware if we’re buying from legitimate websites or scammers. As an aid to consumers, this page will be dedicated to allow users to submit their reviews with group buying sites. Each group buying site will open a new page where you can input your comments or reviews.
