Groupon is an especially great way to eat at some of NYC’s best restaurants for half price. I’ve gotten some amazing deals at spas and restaurants, and have seen deals for tours, cruises, karaoke, bike rentals, kids places, sports, gym day passes, film festivals and VIP passes to various events. Find Today’s Daily Deal on the Best in New York City, Brooklyn, Queens or Long Island!,

How it Works: Every morning, Groupon emails several specials in your city, and they usually expire at midnight.

You buy the certificate, Groupon sends it you within a week or so, and it is usually good for up to year. That’s like anything in NYC for HALF OFF! Almost everyone I know uses Groupon – it’s great!
