• Deal of the Day is an unbeatable deal, on something local to do, see, eat or buy that is available to purchase for that day only. – These deals are heavily discounted between 50% - 80% off. – The customer may purchase the offer that day only but may redeem it in the future, up to one (1) year, or by an expiration date set by you.

• The “deal is on” when a minimum number of people purchase the offer. – Minimum number is set by you, the advertiser, and approved by us. – You can also set maximum number of deals you want to sell.

• Revenue is split between the advertiser and the Denton Record-Chronicle.

• There is NO upfront cost to you.
