You may already know about those group buying sites like Twongo, Groupon and Living Social, which offer a deal of the day to subscribers. Well, group buying junkies, here's another site for you to bookmark: Redeemio.com.
This is a site was started by a couple of local entrepreneurs (the company is based in Raleigh) and actually does a roundup of all the daily deals from the other sites. So you can subscribe to one e-mail and get all of the deals of the day. So far, you can sign up for daily roundup e-mails for about 65 different markets nationwide, including the Triangle.
Co-founder Gerry Lipscomb told me that Redeemio will start offering its own deal of the day in a month or two. When that happens, Redeemio's reward system will also kick in. In a nutshell, the more deals you buy, the better your rewards. Each reward level comes with multiple benefits.
