They are called "Groupons". A combination of "groups" and "coupons", the deals only work if a certain amount of people buy in.
You visit www.groupon.com. From there you can select a city. The closest to our area is Atlanta. Once you pick your location, the deal of the day pops up. You can buy a type of gift certificate, but the savings comes with the value. You may pay $10 for a coupon or certificate worth $25.
Here's the catch, a certain amount of other people have to buy in. The deal lasts for a certain period of time and if enough people purchase the deal it goes through. If not the deal is off and so is your savings, but you keep your money.
