Silly groupon

I'm a big fan of groupon.  There are some amazing deals to be had on that site.  I grabbed one over the winter that was for a horse drawn sleigh ride up at a farm about 45 minutes from here.  I figured the scenery would be beautiful and the kids would love it, especially since it claimed everyone got juice and a cookie.  Fast forward 6 months.  I procrastinated and the expiration date was getting close.  I called to see what the deal would be since the tiny bit of snow we got over the winter was long gone.  The guy said they would give us a fun wagon ride, so that's what we did last Saturday.  As for the fun part...not so much!  It was 100 degrees.  We baked in the sun.  The poor horses were so worked in the heat they had to stop the wagon a few times.  We bumped over boulders on the trail and had a really nice view of the traffic on I80 running along the edge of the property.  On the bright side, the kids thought it was fun and that's mostly what matters, right?  I have decided, though, that from now on I'll stick to massage groupons!

  1. That's funny! I have a coupon for a free massage that is over a year old now... on the bright side there is no expiration date on it but who knows if they will still accept it!
