I am very supportive of projects like this. I have been saying for a while that Bitcoin merchants should make Bitcoin use more attractive for users, by offering them discounts. If you walk into a shop and they display a banner that says, "Pay with Bitcoin and get a 15% discount on the price.".... would you rather pay with cash or credit card or would you consider exploring Bitcoin?
This is a huge marketing tool for Bitcoin adoption, but it is under utilized. ^hmmmmm^

Hi everyone,
William here!
Over the last few weeks, we created a website called bitbargains.io, which aims to offer a deal/coupon site, but for only stores that accept bitcoin or other crypto currency.
The reason why we created this is because as most of us agree, crypto use will be a key driver for mainstream adoption, and right now, there are a growing number of places where you can use your bitcoin, most charge a high fees (even though the merchant might actually save on their usual mastercard/visa fees etc). I don't know if this is due to the payment gateways, or the merchants themselves.
We have reached out to alot of merchants over the last few weeks and have received a very response, we now have around 10 merchants who have setup coupons specifically for bitcoin users, from $5 cashback to 15% off all orders.
Would love to get some feedback from the community here. As well as if you have any suggestions on new merchants to add, or maybe you are a merchant yourself and would love to add your business to our site.
It's still early days, so looking forward to growing the site.
Will
