Considering that they face competition from:

Restaurant.com
Amazon Deals
Local newspaper sites that have real credibility with the local merchants
Living Social
gDine
Eversave

and just about ANYONE that wants to create a website.

Groupon has a great idea BUT ... it is not something that cannot be copied by so many different people.

Hi- I was just on Whole Food's facebook page, and all the stores in the Chicago area have a super deal on salmon TODAY only- Friday 1/20. They have wild caught sockeye salmon fillets for $7.99 a pound, which is 45% off. Hope this helps, Nancy

Stupid question alert: can I just toss those in the freezer? I can't remember the fish freezing rules.

Hi- It does not say so on their FB page, but I assume that these are previously frozen, due to the fact that you can't fish in Alaska this week. They could also be frozen now, which could solve your problem.

I am not sure if you are supposed to refreeze fish that has been thawed. I think it could affect quality, but I am not a fish expert. You might try reposting this question in the shopping and cooking section, which has more traffic. Hope this helps, Nancy

Bacon lives! $25 on $55 worth of bacon treats.
