Amazing on the part of the Groupon team. How does one turn down 6 billion dollars? Hopefully this is not a decision they will regret.

They’re morons. You have to be batshit crazy to decline that kind of $$$. Unless, of course, they’re talking to MSFT for $7B.

Here’s the funny thing...I never heard of groupon before google started talks to buy them. Groupon just got a ton of free advertising. That may have been their plan all along—if so pretty damn smart.
