Tippr.com: A Good Alternative to Groupon

Several months ago I wrote about the wonders of Groupon.com, as they were the quickest out of the gate in the Local Deal of Day arena.   More and more combatants have entered the fray over these last few months and Tippr.com seems to be a standout, as the dust continues to settle.  While all the Groupon knockoffs, ehem, I mean alternatives, seem to be offering great local deals of the day on a consistent basis, I’m getting a little tired of the same old half off a $40 restaurant tab.

Groupon, Living Social, Buywithme, etc all seem to be cycling through the the half off restaurant deals every day, at least in my neck of the woods (Washington, DC/Northern VA area).  So I decided to give Tippr.com a try, and have been impressed with their offerins to date, or at least not as bored with them.

One of the interesting things about Tippr.com that sets them apart from Groupon and the others is their maximum discount on a deal of the day gets bigger as more and more subscribers click to buy it!   I love when I see a local deal that I want, it already is offered at say 50%, and then later in the day after more people have bought, the discount goes up to 75% or more!  Cha-Ching!

Tippr.com is just as easy to use as all the rest:

1. Subscribe at Tippr.com with your email address and select your city of choice and they’ll send you the deals of the day for that city each morning
2. Share it with your friends, colleagues, family, enemies, the dog next door.  Remember, the more people who buy, the more you all save!
3. Click on the Buy Now button. If you like what you see, buy it, and when the deal closes, they email you the voucher which you can print at home and redeem at the vendors place of business or online if it’s an online vendor.

It doesn’t get any easier than that!  They are know to offer deals of the day at local restaurants, spas, retail shops, city events, bars, theaters and more.   They are starting out slow, so the cities they currently offer deals of the day for are:

So the next time you’re feeling the need to save some money, give Tippr.com a try.  And remember….you’ve got to spend money, to save money.
