    I lived there in the 1970s for a brief period, and would give my eye teeth AND my left arm to check it out all these years later. It was a beautiful city. i especially loved the park, gardens and zoo, the lake and the music. I, too, really need a vacation.

    A recent surgery and the necessity to move, plus all those related expenses have prevented me from planning any vacations for some time to come. I would love to go to Chicago. By the way, this site should also give someone the opportunity to let you know they already subscribe.

He has been with us since Dec. & since he cannot be left alone I’ve left my full time job to care for him.

    I’ve been to Chicago — it’s one of my favorite cities. But, I’ve only been there for work, which means I get to see the airport, the view through the taxi cab window, and the interior of whatever hotel it is that my meeting’s being held in. I’d love to finally share it with my husband!

    I’m from Ireland, but living in Boston, and I’ve been told that Chicago is like the county that floated off our island and landed in the US – only it’s been blessed with better food and a big city feel without the attitude of NYC !

    Also, my lovely boyfriend was born in Chicago but hasn’t been back since he was 2 years old.

    We’d love to go see the windy city.

    I’m dying to go and sample the amazing food I’ve read so much about, and see some local bands – I LOVE “The Tossers”.

    Please, pretty please pick me :)

I always spend about triple what I pay originally, but it’s all good! Just enjoying meeting up with friends and trying new places.

    I haven’t been to Chicago yet, but I’m a teacher so I’ll have some time off during the summer to do just that! Maybe I’ll be the next lucky winner ;)

    Hi GrouBLOGpon!

    I’ve been crazy addicted to Groupon since I’ve discovered it within the last year or so and continue to keep buying it because it’s landed me in so many new opportunities I never would have taken had it not been for the deals. This year, I discovered so much in life, including ziplining, rock climbing, and yoga. My new adventures include skydiving, kayaking, and trying all these new restaurants.

    But something I’ve never done, is go to Chicago. The other thing is I work 7 days a week between 2 jobs and having this opportunity would be a tremendous life experience for me and would love to be a part of Groupon’s ever growing marketing and business campaign.

    Aside from working 7 days/week, I also have not taken an official vacation, well… since before I graduated high school, back in 2000 (Key Club International Convention in Disney) which I’m not so sure really counts as a vacation. I never did spring break while in college because I had to always work and could never afford it.

    So… here’s to hoping that maybe my going broke by buying all these Groupons will help earn me a cool trip and some more new experiences I didn’t get a chance to take while in college (or even after college for that matter) and be able to finally get a vacation in before I’m 30!

    Well… thanks for hearing me out GroBLOGpon and all your readers/buyers out there!

    Chicago,

    I like your band, the song Sufjan Stevens made about you, the fact that you are mentioned in most Kanye West songs, that you are named after the French rendering for “wild onion”, that you gave Al Capone an STD, that your Cubbies try so hard every year, and that you make a pretty solid style of pizza.

    I do not like your musical.

    My limited experience with Chicago involved driving past the city skyline once when I was a teenager on the way to my brother’s Navy basic training graduation (when you’re 16 and on a family trip, you don’t have much say!). That was more than a decade ago, and I’m ashamed to say I still haven’t made it there to really see the city. Would love to change that!

Was my last attempt to revive a dying relationship. Just couldn’t afford the air fare.. Maybe this last min ray of hope by groupon is actually God’s way of saying I can still save this decade old long relationship if I can meet him just once more like old times…Else have accepted the inevitable :( (..

My parents divorced and the last I saw of the Eastcoast was at 4/yrs old. Have always intended on going for a visit to my birth city and, hopefully, check out the monorail or site of same at least in honor of my late father. Winning this trip w/b a fantastic opportunity to do just that. Here’s hoping and thanks, Groupon, for the chance.

    I’ve heretofore failed to have a positive experience in or regarding Chicago. Chicago is the place where my favorite uncle died as a result of a hospital mistake, one to which the hospital confessed before apologizing to us, the family. We chose to neither sue nor accept a multi-million dollar compensation. Chicago is the city where, having been sent there by my company which gave me 2-weeks leave attached to a 6-week training assignment whilst living in a very nice though modest house in Cicero, neighbor adorned my house with eggs, tomatoes and feces before finally burning a cross on the lawn, thereby forcing me to relocate under police escort. Chicago is the place where, when the mayor of seattle and the mayor of Chicago wagered on which of our teams would win big sporting event, we (seattle chose to honor them with some of our best salmon (rich in protein, omega-3s and zero saturated fat and only residual sea salt)–a precious gift. to which Chicago responded by offering up it’s best pizza. whilst failing to mention that the cheese, pepperoni and processed white flour dough alone would make us less healthy for having won. i could quite easily suggest that i HATE chicago except that i’m not a hater, and so i don’t. Chicago’s best opportunity to convence me that it’s little more that a culturally corrupt gangster town would be to bathe me in it’s highly-touted new environmental footprint and the vaunted state-of-the-science revamping of it’s downtown central business district, which i’d love to see.

    What exactly am I supposed to say here? Does it have to be about Chicago? What I want to do there? Who I know there? What I’ve done there? How windy and cold it is? The supposedly great sports teams? How much better than New York because cheaper? How far away from here (D.C. area)? How thank God this contest is in summer and not winter? How if I won, what if no one wanted to come with me? What if I/ we had a terrible time? What if I got sick on the plane and puked? Such as if I had to sit facing backwards which only Southwest makes you do. How it IS actually a place I want to visit, because it’s the birthplace of slam poetry, and I do have friends to see there, and one of my closest associates (relatives) or two or three or more (friends included, now) went to school there and I know there’s so much for me to check out, even if no one wants to come with me but maybe does anyway, and we both sit backwards and do puke on the way, and don’t even have a fun time — hey, it’ll at least be an experience worth writing about, I’m sure!

We’d love this trip to NY to celebrate our year of new beginnings! Thanks this opportunity! We also have never been to Chicago and hear its so much like NY but better and a bit closer to home for us!

    Are we too late to enter? I just saw this on yesterday’s Groupon as I sadly had Internet failure from Tuesday-just an hour ago :(

    I would LOVE to go to Chicago… It made me the happiest 12 year old on earth 19 years ago… So happy we went there for our wedding anniversary (not 19 years ago ;p). I have yearned to return since the late 90s!

    Had a layover once after being snowed in the airport after a ski trip. Being able to check out the town this time would really make up for a lousy other trip.
