Wahanda Launches MobDeals in Manchester and Birmingham

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Collective Buying Power for Spa, Beauty & Fitness Deals

mobdeal-press-release-picFollowing from the massively successful launch of London MobDeals, Wahanda, the leading online health, beauty and wellness resource, is now bringing MobDeals to Manchester & Birmingham. The launch of MobDeals gives local residents the ability to share in the power of group buying to get unbeatable daily deals of up to 80% off on massages, facials, spa days, haircuts, manicures, yoga, Pilates classes, and more from the best local businesses.

MobDeal launches the week of February 15th with fantastic offers in both new cities: the Manchester MobDeal features a pamper offer of only £20 for a Massage and Facial at The Spa Co Urban Oasis (normal price £50, savings of 60%),  and the Birmingham MobDeal has an offer of £18 for Three Power Plate Sessions at The Vibro Suite (a value of £60, saving consumers 70%).

How MobDeals work:

1) Using the power of collective buying, Wahanda negotiates special volume discounts with top spas, salons, gyms and studios to offer one exciting MobDeal every day from Monday to Friday.
2) The deal is open to everyone but is typically only available for 24 hours, and only becomes “live” if enough people sign up for that day’s MobDeal (the number varies by day and deal).
3) Customers are encouraged to share the deal with friends via email and social networking tools such as Facebook and Twitter because if the minimum number of purchases is not met, no one gets the deal.
4) Once a MobDeal has been purchased by the minimum number of customers, the unbeatable deal has officially “tipped” and is available for the rest of the day for anyone to purchase

The Wahanda MobDeal creates a win-win situation for consumers and for spas, salons and fitness venues by guaranteeing a minimum number of new customers to these businesses. Best of all, Wahanda is giving something back– for every MobDeal purchase made, Wahanda will donate £1 to charity:water to continue supporting their great cause of bringing fresh water to communities.

For all MobDeals and to sign up for your daily email visit www.wahanda.com/mobdeal

Notes to Editors
1. Birmingham and Manchester MobDeals launched on Monday 15th February. See individual offers for details.
2. Why MobDeal?  Like a flash mob, people can come together, organise and achieve something more powerful as a group.  Our deals allow people from all over the city to band together in a common cause – great discounts on spas, massages, salons, manicures, yoga, fitness and more!
