Jason,
Can you show me the math on that. I am terribly confused. I purchase a groupon for $25 and it is good for $50 at restaurant. Instead I call up restaurant and say, listen I saw you had a groupon for $50 but I only have to pay $25 for it. Can I just come in and get fifty dollars worth of food and only pay you twenty-five? Where is it the restaurant gets twice as much money? Because Groupon keeps half the $25 I paid? I am not sure but I don't thing Groupon keeps half.
I understand the principal. Restaurant hopes I spend 75 or 80 and usually Groupons don't include alcohol or tax or gratuity, so I get $25 toward my total bill of the meal.
Help me,
