wwyd? groupon or no? first world problem
i haven't purchased much through groupon, so it's not always my go-to when thinking about saving money... which i should change.
i created the perfect party invite and matching postage stamps on zazzle. i'm so happy.
a co-worker suggested going through groupon before completing my order.
there are some AMAZING deals on groupon for zazzle and other printing places. one of the deals would be less than $20 for the invites.
the kicker is that the invites i have chosen are not part of the deal.
would you scrap what you've done for an amazing deal or would you keep what you've done and pay 3x the price ($60-ish) and save yourself the time and effort? stamps aren't part of any deal, they would go at regular price.

Re: wwyd? groupon or no? first world problem
If you're very happy with your current invites, is it really worth $40 to get so-so invites that you aren't thrilled with?
IMO, I would stick with what you have now, and the next time, I would go through Groupon, and limit yourself to what is offered through the deal, and then you won't be "giving up" a perfect invite that you could make without the Groupon deal.

Since you already designed it, I would keep what you have.

I would probably do this too.
Theyre just going to end up in the trash anyway
Im sure theres another design I could find.

Depends on whether I really had my heart set on the design. I would probably go with the deal though. Just keep in mind, in my experience you still have to pay full price for shipping and tax so an extra $10-20 on top of the Groupon.

I just went through something similar. I created my invitation and when I went to plug in the Groupon voucher, it wasn't included. I guess I didn't read the fine, fine print and it didn't include communion invitations. Long story short, I had to cancel the Groupon and get a refund in Groupon bucks. I paid Zazzle directly. It was a PIA.

Depends on if you can find invites that you like using groupon.

I do not like the Groupon zazzle invites. I would stick with what you made or order something off Etsy and have it printed through staples if you are trying to save money.

well, i wasn't impressed with anything that qualified.
i was looking at another vendor, but it's unclear which invites are part of the groupon. so, the jury is still out on what i'm going to do. luckily, i have time on my side.

Try Photo Affections. They have a Groupon and it doesn't limit you on designs other than it only covers one sided invites. They make great quality stuff!

THANK YOU.
i noticed that zazzle didn't have anything i liked on their groupon, but photo affections had nice things that are very similar to the ones i had created. i was a bit hesitant because i've never used them.
i believe photo affection is even cheaper!
thanks, again.
