Is are Scoopon type sites a good place to get a link?

[Gavo]

We have noticed that our competitors have links with equality from sites like this: http://www.groupon.com.au/

Scoopon type sites like this can be an effective way to generate sales for a business, I'm just wondering if these types of sites also have added value for SEO as sites like these do have a strong Domain Authority?

Any thoughts on this subject would be most appreciated. Thanks!

If they have follow links, the deal's backlink will enhance your SEO efforts as they are legitimate links that are there for a helpful to the user purpose and coming from a strong domain.
