InvisibleSoul's Group Buy Website Deals Thread

There are so many of these group buy websites around now, and a lot of the deals are not very good and/or not very interesting... but from time to time, something worthy pops up.

If you spot one that you think would be of interest to people here on RevScene, post it up!

As per standard RevScene rules, do not post a links with referrals, or else the ban hammer will hit you hard.

The Peking Duck in 2 courses deal isn't bad as well, some may complain about the terms (i.e. minimum 4 people per table/have to make a reservation).

LoL, TheDailySteal.

Don't know if you had a browser problem or they had a temporary problem of their end, but I've bought several deals from them in the last week... no problems at all.

Not in my experience. I almost exclusively visit 2 locations. I goto the one on Kingsway and Nanaimo mostly because the drive-through is 24 hour and their spicy chicken is better marinated.

I don't know what they do with the spicy chicken at the Fraser and 41st location; it's bland and the skin isn't crispy.

KFC used to be good. Now they suck to the bone (pun intended).

Secret recipe my ass. It does not taste the same as it used to. Changed the recipe, they did.

Churches is, like you said, hands down the winner.

Actually, I kind of like the fried chicken from Donald's Market on Hastings..... oddly enough, right next door to Churches. Being cheaper helps a lot, too.

Churches taste like shit when you eat too much.

Pretend it's like drinking PURE OIL.

Have any of u guys tried Lee's chicken? There's locations in Surrey and Langley. They have the best chicken imo, better than KFC and Churches.
