I`m so excited! We got a mention today in a Wall Street Journal Blog article. How did it come about? The author had written a previous article about coupon sites. We followed up with her by email about our site and compared and contrasted it to the ones that she wrote about. She was interested enough to email us back and ask for an interview. We didn`t know if anything would come out of it (how many times have you gotten excited only to not even be mentioned in an article??). Then all of a sudden today, the article appeared!

It felt really good to be a small company written about up against some really big companies. Persistence!!
