Groupon is selling coupon codes only redeemable through an affiliate link. FTD is notorious for this, as is proflowers and other sites. You click on a sale ad to get a site where you can only use that coupon code.
It flat out says "Post-2/14 option not valid until 2/15. Groupon value reduces by $20 on 6/16/11, except where prohibited."
It also flat out said it's only valid at "the following website: www.ftd.com/groupon"
Anyone knows that when you buy a coupon read the fine print and make sure the prices are in line with what you will be saving.
People are dumb, the timing of the promotion was dumb, and I honestly don't think Groupon should be held at fault. The prices seem to be the same now between the 2 sites anyway.
