I have to say I've fallen out of Groupon big time over the last couple of years and don't use it anymore. Sick of getting the 'Groupon treatment' or being bound by extensive T&Cs and find even at cut price it doesn't tend to be worth it.

I've not used them for a break, but I know my sister did for several hotels travelling around on a UK roadtrip a few years ago. She told me they were driving to one hotel and got a call to say their booking had been cancelled as it was overbooked so had to find somewhere else, and when they turned up at another hotel it had changed hands and they had no idea she had a booking!

A girl at my work did book a trip to Greece using Secret Escapes or Voyage Prive, one of those sites that specialises in travel and I think it went ok.
