Denver Diatribe 55: The Groupon Sucks, Free Samples Rock, and Black Friday is Now Thursday Edition

This week we explore our inner cheapskates with MileHighontheCheap.com‘s Laura Daily.

We discuss Groupon’s mediocre performance in the stock market and whether it’s a sign of the daily deal site’s impending doom—or its evolution into a magical creature that poops out killer discounts to Denver’s hottest restaurants. Laura and co-hosts Jared, Joel and Ron guide you through Denver on $10 per day or less—scoring free movies and entertainment around town, nibbling on grocery store samples, turning email spam into a free lunch, and more. Finally, we share a few of our favorite Black Friday destinations or traditions, despite all indications that it’s starting before Friday this year.

Click here for the article from The New Yorker that Joel mentions, in which Wal-Mart shoppers trample one another for Black Friday deals.

    Half the show to tell us that you all hate Groupon? I can only assume that they had a deal recently where, for a very small fee, they piss in your cornflakes.
