Take it up directly with Groupon.
The issue is that salons don't limit the number of vouchers sold so they get over run. And of course Groupon don't really tell them this - they want their money!

Doing a Livingsocial next week! I'm very, very quiet at the mo! to a point where my part timer who works 24 contracted hours per week is literally spending half of that doing nothing - which she hates and I do too!!! we've cleaned the salon till we can't clean no more!!!
So my only reasons for doing it are, to get a bit of money in the bank, to get a bit of advertising, and hopefully get a few repeat clients!
One word of warning, my rep told me I would get 50% of my money in 10 days (after the deal date) then 50% of it after 30 days. When my contract was sent to me it stated '50% will be paid after 30 days, 30% after 90 days, 20% after 180 days!!!! I queried this as was not happy and was told, this has recently changed and is now set in stone so can't be changed.
I've no idea how many will sell??? but I happened to have a call from KGB today who would have done exactly the same deal, same price, same commission, but paid me 50% 10 days and 50% 30 days so I only wish I hadn't signed LivingSocial contract so I could go with KGB!!
This proves it really does pay to do your research!!
We will see what happens!!
