Any limit on the purchase?
If not, this deal is too hot to be true.

That's like gasoline at half price.

[supersaiyan]

probably 1 per household

If only we could get the $100 gift card at half price and combo it with the aeroplan stars challenge promo.

[medethic]

thank you for the heads up! :)

I just called my closest esso gas station, they are not aware of this promotion, and is not honoring it. Better call them first before you go.

Post #2 has the email as saying "we will be offering", does that mean livingsocial sells the GCs at 50% off?

Limited quantities too, so maybe not too good to be true; they probably have a tiny amount relative to the number of people who will try to grab this, like the other site that had 5 or so LV purses at 50% off or something.

This is NOT sold by ESSO stations... They are sold by http://www.livingdeal.com...
the cards can be redeemed at ESSO stations, but not purchased from there at this price...

You get $5 off gas, for the privilege of being spammed to death forever. I will pass. Enjoy.

Clearly you are not familiar with the phrase "opt-out"?

[redkid]

last time they had this promo the site was down from like 8.55am to 9.15am and when it came back up it was sold out :mad:

[ronin1701]

Website's crashing .....

[wing0]

Ridiculous!

I am so writing an email to complain to them, in less then 2 mins of the deal showing. Their server already can't handle the load and crash.
Limited time offer alright! They should change their title: Thursday May 10th 9:00-9:02 AM ONLY!!!

[ronin1701]

**** this. Outta there.

Group sites should be prohibited from running deals where their server can't handle the load.

Me too.

F5ing for an hour is not worth $5.

[Laur0406]

Awesome. Can't even access their website.

I don't believe that there are enough people that know about LivingDeal to crash their website...when it comes back up I'm sure they will be "sold out". It's things like this that will make me NOT use their site in the future.

This deal isn't even that good...saving $5 off a tank of gas is really no big deal when a tank costs me $60-$70. And saving $5 in-store? Prices are marked up higher than a grocery store anyway!

I was finishing up order at 9.01 and it was showing error message on final step. Livingdeal sucks.

Same here. And I can't believe their site is still down. When Dealfind had a similar thing running, the site restored itself a lot more quickly than this.

Edit: Website finally back up. My boyfriend and I each purchased one. Hope we receive the cards soon!

[katieo]

I finally managed to get my order to go through!

[Laur0406]

wow, 112 was their limited quantity? That's a random amount.

The number keeps going up. I'm still able to access the checkout page. They're probably selling over their limit. I wonder if they'll have to cancel orders.

[DealHunter99]

Hahaha you guys are jokers...

It's amazing how many people are willing to WAIT for a mere $5 in savings just like they would wait in line for $0.02/L savings when gas prices go down and then blame the deal companies when they can't handle the traffic or sell out. What did you think; that they would have UNLIMITED quantities available??? Amusing.

[Too itchy]

They sold 174 of these GC....I wonder who the lucky ppl are? Or are these phantom number of GC's with phantom number of cards?

Nah they're real...or should be. My friend was able to buy one and he entered his shipping info and such. I guess we'll know in a few weeks.

[ronin1701]

Woohoo - I just checked my email, and it looks like I got one after all!

I guess my order must have submitted right before the site crashed.
