Through January 30th, Groupon is offering $75 worth of wine at Wine Insiders.com for $25. Choose from dozens of wines that have been hand-selected for taste and affordability (rumor has it only 5 out of every 100 sampled bottles make it onto the site). Shipping not included and starts at $10 (to select states only). Must use in single visit; expires 7/24.
$25
I did one of these Groupon deals for Wine Insiders a couple years ago. If you're a wine snob, I wouldn't bother as the selection overall is pretty limited. They also don't rotate stock that often, so the wines they have seem to change very infrequently.
That said, once you get on their list as a Groupon customer, they send you extra cheap deal offers from then on -- frequently for 6 bottle variety packs (red/white/mixed) for 5.99 each with 1c shipping. $36 for 6 bottles of wine that normally sell for around twice that is a great cheap way to stock up on table wine.
Final notes - some states don't allow mail order wine, and for those that do, someone has to be there to sign for the delivery.
I think this Groupon is targeted more to the American fortified wine crowd...

Ha! It isn't MD20/20 bad, and I can say that first hand as I do have some MD on hand, too.
They're more on par with $10 liquor store wine (or whatever store, for you people in states with weird laws that keep liquor/beer/wine separate).
