To encourage the continued growth in the use of mobile coupons, Yowza!!, the free mobile coupon application co-created by Greg Grunberg (star of new NBC series Love Bites, and alumnus of Heroes, Alias, Felicity and many others) has announced the first-ever Mobile Weekend couponing event Yowza!! is encouraging people to shop smart and take advantage of exclusive offers delivered directly to their mobile phones just in time for the busiest -“ and often most expensive -“ shopping season of the year.
Beginning Saturday, November 27 and Sunday, November 28, 2010, retailers from Yowza!!’s roster of over 300 partners will be taking advantage of Yowza!!’s mobile coupon application to offer major Mobile Weekend coupon discounts to consumers around the United States.
“With more than five million users taking advantage of the pre-holiday shopping bargains of our 300 merchants in over 15,000 locations nation-wide, Yowza!! is the ultimate holiday shopping tool,” said Grunberg. “By using mobile coupons -“ starting on Mobile Weekend and beyond -“ the only thing shoppers will have to worry about this holiday season is finding a parking space.”
Yowza!! also announced today the first two major retailers to offer Mobile Weekend deals. At Lane Bryant, Yowza!! users can -˜Buy One Get One Free’ (good for anything in the store except Spanx products and panties). Additionally, Yowza!!’s newest retail partner, Big 5 Sporting Goods is offering 20% off one regular item or 10% off one sale item, with use of its Yowza!! mobile coupon during the Mobile Weekend couponing event.
Yowza!! is available via both the iPhone and iPod touch, as well as on Blackberry, Palm Pre and Android devices through Yowza!!’s partnership with WHERE. For more information, visit http://www.getyowza.com or http://www.twitter.com/yowza.
