While I understand you are the "Groupon" Guru, I wanted to write you and tell you to check out a new daily deal site in DC called www.DealsForDeeds.com. What makes it so cool is that in addition to getting a great daily deal, like Groupon, DealsForDeeds also supports local DC-based charities in the process. A percentage of every deal is donated to one of three charities that rotate on a frequent basis - this allows local businesses, subscribers and local charities to connect in a really fun and mutually beneficial manner. We are really excited about not just being able to provide great deals to people, but also about having a positive impact on our community. I hope you like the site, and I welcome any feedback or suggestions you may have. We are launching in 20 days, so we are trying to get the word! We are also having a launch party, that I'd like to invite you to. Please shoot me an email and I can give you more details. Thanks! Evan Hey GrouponGuru!

The steaming, the real NYC bagels, fresh ingredients, handmade cream cheese. I could go on and on. This place blows any franchise out of the water and I used to swear by Einstein's. Forget about Bruegger's, Owen's is no comparison. There is simply not a better bagel sandwich in Charlotte. The steaming, the real NYC bagels, fresh ingredients, handmade cream cheese.

I cannot believe you called Bagels, Ect. a "hole-in-the-wall." To be fair, I have found a bagel replacement too. Bodos. I was worried about you and Teddy without a go-to bagel spot. Whew. LINDSEY!!

You certainly didn't seem that displeased the night you attended the show. You are correct that there were only 8 people there on Nov 11 but if you would have come to the show on Nov 13 you would have been in an audinece of 35 people. Some nights are few people and other nights are full houses. Most people say they like the intimacy of the smaller audiences. I will assure you that no magnets were present anywhere in the room, or used to perform any effect in the show especially the floating card box. You did see some plastic clips on the back edge of the table that was suppose to hold the table cloth in place and keep it from slidding off the table. By the way, I am highly respected for skill, presentation and showmanship and have many awards from my peers to prove it. But I know you wrote a bad review and say you didn't like the show and I respect that. Most everyone loves the show and gives it great reviews so I am a little taken back as to why you didn't like the show or me. But because you feel that you did not get your money's worth I will refund you the amount received from your purchase. I am just thankful that most of my audience don't share your feelings and that is why they are willing to pay the $45 to see the show. Call me for your refund. Take care and God Bless.
