Saving Money When Going Out With Friends


Best Practice

The Californian start-up JoynIn offers a mobile app that enables users to get special deals in bars and restaurants based on the number of people they go out with.

Participating business will offer them deals that get cheaper the more friends they invite in their group. After arriving at the location in question, users can check in via JoynIn and earn themselves a special discount.
For their part, the bar and restaurant owners can look forward to increased business and the chance to win regular customers.

To begin with, this service is only available in San Francisco.
