Who remembers Quoits? Perhaps I’m alone in this being one of my favourite childhood garden games; I have so many happy memories of trying to get hoops over the pegs (always overshadowed by my champion Grandad) but not many other people seem to know what I’m talking about, and I was having trouble tracking a new set down.
That trouble ended recently thanks to Groupon who recently offered me a voucher to spend on their site. I’ve been aware of Groupon for some time but had always been wary about using it, wondering if it really was too good to be true,
and living in Bristol, a lot of the best deals are missed, so I headed straight for the goods section where I clapped eyes on a retro garden games offer…
Quoits, at a bargain price?! On to a winner!
I was really impressed with the way Groupon operated. I was under the impression I’d be waiting months to recieve my deal,
but the parcel was on my door within a week. The instructions for redeeming a deal were easy to follow and there were no hiccups along the way.
Now all I need is some sunshine and a few team players…
Blogger tournament anyone?
What’s your best deal from Groupon been?
PLEASE tell me you remember Quoits?!

Hi
The shop is in the galleries right next door to WHSmith its where Madhouse the jeans shop used to be.
They have some fab stuff you should take a look next time your in Bristol x
I remember it, I used to love it! That and a good game of boules…haha, how sophisticated!
I LOVE QUOITS.
My mum is obsessed. She is always going on about it and we play it all the time, even though we have a really old plastic childs set, it is a household favourite!

I have never heard of quoits! But I would definitely be up for a tournament haha =)

I used to love quoits too – though we never owned our own set. However, the game always featured (and still does) at every village fete I’ve ever been to, so my memories of it are of playing a round in someone else’s garden, followed by cake and squash and haunting the bric-a-brac stall!
I don’t remember these but they look amazing! It’s possible I’ve played this before and just forgotten…I’ve not used Groupon yet, are they good? xxx
