Yesterday, Lisa asked if people would tire of coupons. Today it was announced that Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks, thinks not. He's just joined the Groupon board and his Seattle based venture capital company, Maveron, has invested an undisclosed sum in the company. The last time Schultz joined the board of a company in which Maveron invested was, well, eBay back in 1998. It quickly went public. Today, eBay's worth is somewhere in the universe of around $39 Billion. We'll check back in with you in 2023 to update you on the value of Groupon.
