equal breaking the bank or<br />

saving for months. Armed<br />

with a little research and<br />

determination, one will spend<br />

less but reap the same<br />

benefits of travelling like a<br />

regular person. How?<br />

Purchase a travel coupon deal<br />

with one of the most sought<br />

after coupon websites —<br />

Groupon Malaysia!<br />

Groupon is building the world's largest<br />

local e-commerce marketplace, becoming<br />

the daily habit for people to search<br />

thousands of deals at great prices. The<br />

website is famous for giving its customers<br />

the opportunity to search and discover the<br />

world around them, be it a staycation in<br />

their local city or a holiday destination<br />

they've never been to.<br />

Groupon Malaysia Country Manager,<br />

Giacomo Ficari said, "Our customers can<br />

choose between an abundance of 'Getaway'<br />

offers from glamping experiences in Johor,<br />

to strawberry fields in Cameron Highlands<br />

and beyond. Given Malaysia’s warm subtropical<br />

climate, travellers have a wide<br />

variety of destinations to choose from and<br />

need only pay attention to monsoon season<br />

cycles in order to plan for the ultimate island<br />

escape or diving experience."<br />

He also said the coupon website specialised<br />

in domestic getaway offers and have found<br />

the travel themes and trends that appeal<br />

most to Malaysians are family-friendly<br />

resorts, as well as beach getaways.<br />

"Getaways are a key vertical for Groupon<br />

where we’ve seen steady growth in the last<br />

couple of years. We’ve also seen an interest<br />

from new partners who are looking to create<br />

an 'online store' with us and benefiting from<br />

our solid and growing customer base,"<br />

he added.<br />
