Most of us all own Facebook accounts, as we use it to help us socialize online, or distract us from our studies. Now Facebook has recently introduced a new application where you can check-in to your favorite stores, places, etc. With this new application different stores and retailors have offered us many deals/discounts for checking-in at their locations. I personally never heard of any discounts from stores by using Facebook Check-In until recently. A few days ago my friend approach me about Gaps deal with Facebook for giving away the first 10,000 jeans to those who checked-in any Gap Men's and Women's retail store. This deal was given in a first come first serve basis, and for those who weren't fortunate enough to get free jeans were given 40% off any item. This deal unfortunately ended on 11/5/2010, but it opened my eyes to finding more deals offered through Facebook check-ins. Check out a few deals I found here:
