Social Shopping


So my wife call's me from home and asks me if I would like to go to spa with her. Not a spa person at all, nor do i want to spend an exhorbident amount of money on pampering myself (not my style, would rather workout). She tell me of website online that gives discounts on spa, haircuts, body massages etc.  She tells me a new category called social shoping has been invented, Social shopping I ask, is it like facebook where I need to polike, poke n comment.  She says no its a place where people buy stuff and get fabulous group discounts. This idea facinated me how a bunch of strangers purchasing goods/services individually receive doscounts based on the purchases of the entire group, my mind starts thing game theory in play, wow, whats best for the group is also best for the individual ( A beautiful mind)!!! After a lot of delight I search online and i see quite a few online sites for social shopping, they are!!
