The Discounted Honeymoon

At The Week, Lauren Hansen regales readers with the story about how she and her husband got married and, wanting to save money, decided to put together a discounted honeymoon in New York City using daily deal sites like Groupon, Gilt, Google Offers, and others. On the agenda: a stay at a nice hotel, spa time, some nice meals, and a Broadway show.

To be honest, the idea of a Groupon honeymoon didn’t sound like the best idea to me, and the couple were initially skeptical about it too. But then they planned it and went through with it. And it sounds like they had a really good time. Kudos to them! [Thanks to Lizz for the pointer.]
