These daily deal sites are popping out from everywhere!
The newest one to provide Montreal bargains is SwarmJam.com. It operates a bit differently from the other daily deal sites we’ve mentioned here (Round Up of Montreal Group Buy Sites). With SwarmJam, there are fixed deals and progressive ones – which means you could get your deal at an even lower cost than originally thought.
Anyway, check it out if you’re interested. It’s always nice to save some money.
Round-up of Montreal Group Buy Sites

Ok, now that I’ve discovered so many Group Buy sites available in the Montreal area, it’s time to list them all in one shot. So here we go in no particular order:
Deal of the Day – RedFlagDeals.com
Deal of the Day – LivingSocial.com
ShopCorus.com – Weekly Deal Site
Groupon Montreal Is Coming! – Dec. 1, 2010
Team Buy – Another Montreal Buying Group
If you have any other sites to share that offer Montreal bargains, please send them along. The way these sites work, the more people who buy, the more deals they can offer.
Team Buy – Another Montreal Buying Group

Filed under Last Minute Deals
Wow, these sites are coming out of the woodwork now – but that’s great because a Montreal bargain is a Montreal bargain, right?
Ian told me about this one that I wasn’t aware of: TeamBuy.ca.
Same premise as the other shopping sites but this one has a second deal off in the left hand sidebar too. So be sure to look around.
Frederic Bednarz with Chamber Music Without Borders – Nov. 30/10
I just received this information from Sarah and it’s as good as a Montreal bargain can get.
Lunchtime music this Tuesday, November 30th, 12h30 at St. James United Church on St. Catherine and City Counsellors (463 Ste-Catherine Street West)
Schumann Sonata for violin and piano no.1 in A minor, op.105
Schumann Sonata for violin and piano no.2 in D minor, op.121
A winner of many competitions including the prestigious Prix d’Europe, the Marseille International Competition and the Val Tidone International Competition, Mr. Bednarz was heard as soloist with the Ottawa and Montreal Chamber Orchestras, the Montreal Civic Orchestra, Ensemble America in New York, OSSIA, the Atlantic Symphony, The Longy Chamber Orchestra, Bach Festival Orchestra, ME.
His chamber music collaborations include appearences with Anthony Marwood, Richard Lester, Julius Baker, Oleh Krysa, Malcolm Lowe, and the Ying Quartet. Bednarz is regularly featured on radio broadcasts with CBC and NPR, and recorded works by Tchaikovski for the XXI Canadian Label, and Albany records.
Deal of the Day – LivingSocial.com
November 9, 2010 by MarijkeD
Filed under Last Minute Deals
It seems like these types of websites are getting popular; I have just learned about LivingSocial.com. Like yesterday’s posting about RedFlagDeals.com, LivingSocial.com is a site that emails you daily deals in Montreal, although you can also find deals in other Canadian cities as well.
Today’s deal is a stone massage at Club Physique for half the usual cost. That’s quite a deal, especially if it’s something you’ve been wanting to try but haven’t yet. It’s also a good way to give a gift you may not otherwise afford.
So, here is yet another Montreal bargain. Why not check it out?

Deal of the Day – RedFlagDeals.com

Filed under Last Minute Deals
Have you heard of RedFlagDeals.com? It’s a good site with lots of saving-type information, but there’s one feature in particular that is perfect for Montreal on the Cheap readers who are looking for bargains in Montreal.
Their Deal of the Day is a group discount offering something new every day. If you sign up, you get daily emails that tell you what is available, but you have to act fast because it’s only for the day.
For example, as I’m writing this now, the deal is for $19 for a $50 Voucher at Play It Again Sports – but there’s only 15 hours and some odd minutes left to buy it. Of course, there are rules and restrictions for the daily deals, but if you read and take note of them, you could come out way ahead.
Earlier deals included:
- $34 for a Wine Lesson and 3 Course Meal to Match, Worth $75
- 50% off Your Next Visit to the Montréal Science Centre
- $50 for $120 Worth of Paintball Fun for 2 people
- 50% off to see the Hamilton Bulldogs at the Bell Center
- $19 for $40 of Southern Cooking & Drinks at House of Jazz
- $29 for $100 of Cleaning Services from Royal Tapis et Meubles
- $79 for $250 of Beauty Services at Avie Spa
You get the idea, right? I’m going to sign up now. Wish I’d known about it before!
