Why you can trust SCMP

Fancy a fast ferry trip to Macau, perhaps a bungee or sky jump from a tall building followed by a spot of lunch or dinner at Macau Tower for the bargain price of HK$369?

Well, now you can, thanks to an offer from online buying firm Groupon Hong Kong, which promises more deals in future, thanks to the power of the internet.

Typically, the Macau entertainment package is valued at HK$1,014, with the round-trip ferry ticket alone worth HK$344.

Groupon said the 64 per cent discount is possible because it harnesses the internet to muster the buyers needed to secure the wholesale price of products or services.

The package is the inaugural offer from Groupon, which plans to post daily specials on its website.

The website was formerly known as uBuyiBuy.com and was acquired by Groupon on December 1.
