You have to remember that if you own a restaurant your goal should be good customers. The kind of customers that groupon attracts are the same kind that will stiff the waitress or complain about their food and then demand money back. I own a retail business and I noticed as I got busier and raised my prices the quality of my clients got better.

Groupon customers are the equivalent of the affiliate that sends 10 hits a day and wants to tie up your service reps with a laundry lists of requests because they think their traffic is gold and you should kiss their ass for it.
