How to: Group Buy (Step-by-Step)

Group buying is probably the third biggest thing on the Internet right now, straight after porn and social networking (yes, I said that). If you still haven’t taken the plunge and clicked Submit Order this article will show you how simple it really is.

Today’s MyCityDeal (which is part of Groupon, the biggest group buying site in the world) is definitely one for the ladies, and if you’re not a lady reading this, then buy one for your special lady! This deal is running nationally so anyone who lives anywhere is South Africa can purchase it..

  • Pay R274 for a 30ml Guess by Marciono EDP valued at R495, a saving of 45%
  • Pay R266 for a Paris Hilton Fairy Dust 50ml EDT spray valued at R465, a saving of 43%
  • Pay R519 for Calvin Klein Obsession Secret EDP 100ml valued a R1130, a saving of 54%

So what exactly are you waiting for? If you’ve never used a Group Buying site before and are a little confused by it all, here is a step-by-step guide on how it works:

Step 1

Step_1

Go to http://www.mycitydeal.co.za/deals/national-deals - the deal is only on for today, so time is of the essence!

Step 2

BuyNow

Click the big green Buy Now! button...

Step 3

Step_3

By doing so, it will open a pop-up screen which allows you to Choose your deal.
Click Buy on your preferred perfume.

Step 4

Step_4

This will take you to a Your Order form to fill in, click the amount you would like to purchase if it is more than one.
As a new user to Groupon, you will need to fill in your personal information as well as Choose payment method.

Step 5

Step_5

Once all your details are complete, just click Submit Order.

It really could not be any simpler! Be sure to check your e-mail as a confirmation message will be waiting with all your order details. However, it's important to remember that your Groupon (coupon) will only be issued at midnight once the deal has actually closed. This coupon is valid for two months and must be present at point of delivery. Best bit? Delivery for this deal is free. Happy shopping.
