LivingSocial’s Three-Day Campaign: Best of Southeast

livingsocial, southeast, daily deal mediaStarting today, LivingSocial will be bringing its members southern hospitality via Internet. They recently introduced their three-day campaign, with the intentions of bringing you the best deals of the Southeast. The event will take place this week, featuring different daily themes such as local dining on June 19th, health and beauty on June 20th, and entertainment on June 21st.

“Everyday LivingSocial excites our members with unique opportunities to take part in amazing experiences and save a little money along the way,” said LivingSocial’s SVP of Sales, Mandy Cole. “This week we’re doing something special by having our local experts spotlight their favorite restaurants, beauty offers and leisure activities across the Southeast. We are confident our members will like our picks as much as our employees do.

Local experts with the online deal site handpicked the featured merchants, based on broad appeal, popularity in the community, and past relationship and success with LivingSocial. Offers are available for purchase through www.livingsocial.com, but the deal doesn’t end there! LivingSocial is offering buyers a chance to share their deals with friends.
