LivingSocial has managed to make the flashdeal even shorter with their new "instant deals." These are mostly food deals that last for a mere few hours and feature discounts like $7 for $10 of food and drink at The Brown Bag or $8 on any drop-in yoga class at Stroga.
On the website you can sort the deals by neighborhood and on the mobile app, it tells you what deals are nearby using your GPS position. Don't know where the restaurant is? No worries, they give you a map :)
Example scenario: You work in Dupont Circle. Your co-workers want to go to lunch nearby. Using your LivingSocial app, you can find a deal near you, saving everyone at least 30% on their meal. You're the new office hero.Imagine never having to pay full price for lunch or dinner again....
Every day there are new deals, and different deals for "lunch" (8-11 a.m. use window), "dinner" (11 a.m. - 3 p.m. use window), or "night" (9 a.m. - 7 p.m. use window). And the best thing? If you don't use the deal by the expiration time, you get your money back!! BRILLIANT!
There is a limit to one voucher per vendor per day, but buying deals from as many vendors you want is fair game.
