  If a deal sounds too good to be true, it usually is!

  [QUOTE]This deal has hurt many people: <a href="http://www.groupon.com/deals/particube-entertainment-llc" rel="nofollow">http://www.groupon.com/deals/particube-entertainment-llc</a> They were selling their booth for $299???? Groupon keeps half. Who would every do a three hour wedding for $150????? 170 people bought this and on Friday morning the Photo Booth Company startednotifying customers, last minute, that they could not do their party. BEWARE of ALL social media coupons.

  In all honesty, this is poor planning on the part of the photobooth owner, not Groupon. My DD opened her own business a few months ago (massage therapy) and they did something similar to this via a radio station. If you make 500 (or whatever number is the minimum) coupons available, you have to be ready to eat that much profit. It is sad this has happened to all those couples, but what were those business owners thinking?
