When you select the state you're in, a city is automatically "selected" in the final drop down box. I was kind of expecting the page to automatically reload with the deals around the city it chose. You need to actually reselect the city to have the page refresh, though.

Instead of having the city automatically selected, maybe have it say "Choose a city." Or have the the page refresh right away for the default city selection.

I am also not a fan of the fade-in/-out the "DealPage" text does when you hover over it. Mainly due to the fact that you can hover over the text a bunch of times very fast and then have to watch the logo fade from white to black over and over.

Other than those small gripes, the site is very nice visually. Good job!

Yep, that confused me too. Also, I would make the default USA.

Guys, this is the first one around of its kinds in the US? I wonder this because here in brazil, where the group buying came some months after groupon, we already have something like this. Not only this, we have clone of these. The biggest is www.saveme.com.br. It was already aquired by the biggest internet company in brazil, the buscape.com.br.

I wondered this because the major inovation here in brazil, arent inovation, just some "braziliatization" of US new startups.

It looks great but I just want the data, I would like just text info, to make it as quick and clean as possible. Images and colors are sexy but I want to do a transaction not look at the site. This is my personal weirdness so take it for what it is worth.

I do not know the display requirements for each provider but a clean look, where I can sort by coupon category would be nice. I really don't care about the provider of the deal, just the deal.

That being said it looks like a really good start.

But it would make sense to be Canada, seeing as it initially all started with dealpage.ca only based out of a few cities major cities in Canada. Just recently it was updated to handle a lot more cities within NA
