So I get the Living Social emails daily with the deals and click on the one for today (cooking classes) and see the "Bonus deal" so I click on that and it's this: http://livingsocial.com/deals/1524?ref=SEADeal040110email-banana-promo 

Umm.....I honestly don't know where to start.  Is it a joke?  Because I hope it is.  I can't even begin...I seriously don't know where to start...

    I had to click on the "purchase" to see what it said - it is a joke - they said they'd send you a "monkey surprise"instead.  But that was the most random living social deal ever!  I've never seen them post a joke!

    Oh thank goodness!  I actually sent them an email chewing them out for it because...well, it bothered me THAT MUCH.  Now I'm curious how they will respond?

    That makes WAY more sense!!!  :D  Oi!  I read through it the first time and thought "it has to be a joke" then read through it again a couple more times before I wrote the email since I couldn't find anything in the "deal" that gave it away as a joke.  Oi, it is April Fools day!  Duh!

    Groupoupon hahahaha like grey poupon!  I didn't get it then did and start laughing like a total weirdo at my desk - good thing my coworkers are used to my laughing outbreaks :).  I love computer/website company April Fool's jokes!! Would love to be in the brainstorming meetings!

    That picture is adorable! Hahhaa, I already forgot it was April Fools Day! $2 was a steal for that little critter! I bet Ivan would love him, they could chase each other all day.

    By the way, what's with living social? I signed up for emails and only get them like every 3 days, and usually when the deal only has 3 hours left or something stupid.

    KS - I get one every morning.  Maybe unsubscribe and re-subscribe?  Have you checked your junk/spam box too?
