So there’s a huge wave of online deal websites. I honestly don’t know where to surf or look anymore. It’s tough to develop loyalty to one website when all of them offer a huge variety of options. After a while, they all look the same. Plus they all offer the same types of deals. However here are a few that I pay attention to:
1) DEAL GROCER
I like this one because of the quality of the deals they offer. They offer premiere travel deals and other high-end offers. I feel like they’re the first to have the getaway packages. They also have an amazingly clean, easy to browse site which is easy on the eyes and makes all the difference when you’re surfing. They have new stuff on a weekly basis and the prices are usually in the thousands. But then, we’re talking about really high-end fancy stuff that you can get for a reasonable amount.
CCP is great for every sort of deal imaginable, fashion, wellness, food, etc. They have new stuff often, almost on a daily basis. Each deal is mostly under P1000 so it’s easy to deal-shop on this site. It’s gotten a little cluttered over the last couple of months as the site has expanded. They used to have a deal a day but now it’s like.. 10 deals a day. This is cool but I also have trouble keeping track.
3) PAKYAW!
The owners of this site are the Magsaysay group. So I’m optimistic for its potential. So far it’s in Beta phase and the updates aren’t that frequent. However, they are different and quality. Previously, they had deals for Cibo, Momo Cafe and other restaurants that we all know and love. I hope they have these again. They also make an effort to offer unique experiences such as a Cultural Tour and Auto Tyres. This, as opposed to the usual — cheap massage, facial, fast food, etc. which they have also I think but not as often.

Below are different from the above 3 because this requires a minimum number of coupons sold for the deal to be “on”
5) BUYANIHAN
These two pretty much offer the usual variety of deals consisting mainly of beauty/wellness (spas, beauty products), travel (vacation packages) and food.

Other Noteworthy sites: (will update if I discover other good ones)
DEAL DOZEN – www.dealdozen.com
ENSOGO – www.ensogo.com.ph
BEWARE!!! Once you get into the habit of surfing these sites, you will also become highly prone to impulse buy stuff you won’t really use or you’ll potentially forget about. Consider everything carefully before you purchase. Otherwise, you’ll end up with a bunch of expired vouchers (and less money in the bank). When you buy it, make every effort to use it.
