Like most people, I often use email to communicate.
Yesterday (Sunday) I send this email out to some Upper Eastside friends.
I
have a groupon thing I need to use by tomorrow night.
It’s
for burgers at Bistro Burger (87th and First). Let me know if you are
free for a delicious but fattening meal.
First
to respond.
A few email back that they can’t come, but one responds today (Monday) with some questions.
10:37 FRIEND
Let
me know the deal...and by the way I think the place is Bareburger? Cause that
is on the corner of 1st and 87th...unless there is another burger place that
snuck in when I wasn't looking. Possible! How are you!!
10:28 ME
burger
bistro is on the other corner….
NEED
TO USE TODAY
burger
meal for two
one
shared appetizer

one
shared side
anything
else (drink, add’l fries) we pay for.
let
me know.
10:37 FRIEND
How
much is this? Sounds like a huge meal!
10:51 ME
don’t
understand your question…let me know if you want to come.
11:18 FRIEND
What
is the cost is my question? I must say I am not really in the mood for
a
burger but would be nice just to see you! So wanted to know what the
tariff
to see you is!
11:21 ME
see
email above…coupon covers what’s stated…anything more is out of pocket.
would
be great if you could come.
11:32 FRIEND
I
am not a groupon gal...so I am lost. The coupon "covers" what’s
stated, but don't we have to pay for the coupon? So what is the cost for each
of us if we only have what's stated. The dinner isn't free I would think. Sorry
I
just
have never done this. So forgive me.
11:42 ME
I
already bought and paid for the coupon…it cost me $25…valued at more….so your
cost would be anything not covered in the coupon…like cokes, an extra order of
fries…and tip (based on actual value)...not very much…under $20, probably less.
12:54 FRIEND
Sure.
I thought it was tonight and my stomach is not feeling like burgers, but maybe
by tomorrow.
Tomorrow? For a coupon that expires tonight?
I think next time I’ll call.
