With all the news about Groupon lately, you might think it's the only deal in town. But there are several new daily deal group-buying sites with a Twin Cities focus, including kgbdeals, dailydealster and a St. Paul addition to LivingSocial. All offer a daily deal at 30 to 70 percent off. Here's a look at what's available.


Livingsocial.com, with a Minneapolis presence for months, just added St. Paul. Recent deals included tickets at Park Square Theatre in St. Paul, a facial package at Fresh Face Loftique in White Bear Lake, a membership to the Minnesota Historical Society, and Fresh & Natural Foods in Shoreview.
Daily Dealster launched in August, offers an interesting mix of deals, including candy at a national site (www.chocolate.com), Glamour Shots at Mall of America, $800 worth of auto repair for $99 at Sundberg's Automotive in Burnsville, and Pro Kart Indoor racing in Osseo. Next year, it will offer free brand name product coupons.
Kgbdeals is the newest, launched less than a month ago in Minneapolis. The local and national deals seem just as good (half-off at Swimspot.com, food and bowling at Lariat Lanes in Richfield and dining deals at places such as Kabob's in Maple Grove).
