Overview

In 2013, comedian Max Dickins wasn't sure of very much in life, but he did know one thing for certain- his life was excruciatingly and mind-numbingly boring. He was heartbroken and desperate to shake things up. That's when he found Groupon. What started as a gateway to some new experiences snowballed into a limitless Narnia of discounted possibility. His insatiable desire to try out new experiences was accompanied by only one rule- he wasn't allowed to turn anything down. Over the course of 18 months, Max did a new Groupon deal every week, charting his experiences along the way- he changed his name, became a Lord, moonlighted as a beekeeper, trekked with alpacas, underwent a colonic irrigation and ultrasound scan, and even convinced Groupon to sell a date with him on their site. They sold 1,000. From a deep rut, he emerged a better man, resuscitated by the oxygen of new experience. My Groupon Adventure is a hilarious and uplifting account of these experiences and what can happen when you inject a healthy dose of spontaneity into your life. It's a book about opening yourself - and sometimes parts of your body - up to new experiences, and ultimately choosing the life you want for yourself.
