Living Social Deal (Australia-wide) - Mothercare - Buy 3 get 1 Free seeking 3 buyers

Lxotic on 17/08/2011 - 22:53

LivingSocial has an Australia-wide deal for Mothercare valid for 5 more days:

$100, $150 and $250 Vouchers to Spend on Baby, Childrens and Maternity Clothing at Mothercare for $39, $59 and $99 respectively.

Now here's the real deal. I stumbled across this post by alwayscheaper - http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/49991 wherein he is suggesting a way of sharing the rewards of the referral scheme at LivingSocial.

Here's how it works (all credit to alwayscheaper for the brilliant idea):

I am seeking 3 buyers who are interested in this deal too so I can send them the link to buy, then between us we'll share the savings of one voucher which equates to $14.75 each ($59 divide by 4, assuming all 4 bought the $59 voucher).

After I successfully get a free deal, I am proposing to bank deposit $14.75 to your bank account, giving you a saving of $14.75 or making the deal $44.25 instead of $59. I know this requires a bit of trust but if you are buying the deal anyway you have got nothing to lose, and we will start to see whether this works and can use for future deals!

If you are interested please message me (DO NOT buy yet) and leave your email contact if you can.

This could be the start of a group buy refolution!

    I'm interested in the $39 deal. I think that's the best value

    • xotic on 24/08/2011 - 15:37

      Let me know if you are still interested and I can send you the referral link. The deal closes in 13 hours.

      They all work out pretty similar.

      • $39 for $100 value = 61% saving
      • $59 for $150 value = 60.6% saving
      • $99 for $250 value = 60.4% saving

    interested in the $59 deal will message you

    • xotic on 24/08/2011 - 15:36

      will send you the link shortly, but I need 3 people to get the deal free, so that I can share the free deal amongst us. You are the first one abnd we have 13 hours more before the deal closes.

    Hmmm, my wife is interested in this deal.

    I'm interested in the quality and pricing of the items for sale, e.g. are these overpriced at the normal price and do these vouchers mean the price is slightly cheaper than you would find else where?

    In saying that I'm pretty keen if the answer to the above questions are positive.

    • xotic on 24/08/2011 - 15:37

      I would suggest to take a look at the prices at http://www.mothercare.com.au/ and see if you are happy with what's on offer. If so, message me and I will send you the link. Note that the deal closes in 13 hours.

      • h4lcyon on 24/08/2011 - 15:41

        Done, sent you a message.

  • voteoften on 24/08/2011 - 16:43

    The deal may be on regular priced items only. I looked at it awhile back so I forget. They seemed to have a lot of stuff onsale.

    People are already selling these vouchers on ebay….

    Thanks to those who purchased yesterday. We were able to get three purchases in through my referral link, so it shows the status of my deal is free. Once I get a confirmation that my account has not been charged, I will arrange for the transfers via email.

  • h4lcyon on 25/08/2011 - 13:56

    Sweet :) - good work xotic

  • h4lcyon on 05/09/2011 - 17:55

    Hey xotic, how are we travelling with the refund?

    • xotic on 06/09/2011 - 10:37

      LivingSocial still hasn't credited the free deal. I have raised a case with them and am following up with them. Will keep you posted on the outcome. Check your emails for further details.

    Got my refund today, thanks for organising it!
