Below you will find some things to consider (preferably before buying), LivingSocial Escapes & Groupon travel reviews of the trips we have done through these sites, and a couple of times we found it was better to skip these deals. We have not found any of them to be a scam so far. Sometimes the deals are great, but sometimes you are better off doing your own thing.

Others seem like they may not be that great of a deal. When you first look at the deals, some of them seem to be too good to be true. Are These Travel Deals a Scam or Good Deal? See why Groupon and Living Social are two of our favorite travel apps to save money and how to avoid any problems with using them. There are also some differences to consider when booking a Groupon Getaway or Living Social Escape.

We have taken several trips through Groupon Getaways and Living Social Escapes, and while they can be a good deal, they are not always the best deal. When people first find out that we use Groupon Getaways and Living Social Escapes for vacations, they often ask, “Did it work? Was it really a good deal? Was it just a scam?” We worried too that it was a scam, especially since our first trip was a Groupon Getaway to New Zealand and Fiji and required us to get to Los Angeles before starting the tour package.
