A New Daily Deal Site That's a 'HomeRun'

Eversave, Groupon, Living Social…there are so many daily deal sites out there right now, it’s sometimes hard to keep track – of the good ones, at least. There are plenty of sites with “daily deals” that just seem to be rehashing what their forefathers have already done. However, there’s a new kid on the block, with discounts at local businesses and restaurants that are more unique and of a smaller scale: HomeRun.com.

HomeRun is a group buying site based out of San Francisco. They recently launched local deals in Boston, and are even planning on throwing a launch party in Boston in the next month or two. I have received their Boston emails (it’s free to sign up!) for a few weeks now, and have been pretty impressed with the merchants they’ve feature to date. For instance, today’s deal is at Basha in Cambridge – a Mediterranean restaurant that I’ve failed to check out, but I’d definitely be inclined to dine there with a $50 gift card that only cost me $25!

HomeRun still has some growth to do – it’s sales definitely don’t hit the numbers the aforementioned daily deal sites do – but they feature some great, smaller merchants, and they definitely deliver when it comes to providing a cheaper way to enjoy the things we love to do around this city.

The generous folks at HomeRun are also giving a $5 credit to the first 5 EE readers that click this link. Happy shopping!
