you guys gotto be kidding .. its a confused site .. a fusion of shopping and social networking will never work.. you have to click a million times to reach to a product .. normal deal sites are better than this .. there goes another $2 million in drain .. i m thinking of moving to west coast .. looks like VC’s there have a tonn of extra money to waste ..
