We know the economy has been down, and that’s getting folks a little ‘down’ about finding savings in these tough times.
Â
Well, with Ask Deals, we’re convinced you’ll soon be celebrating, and getting ‘down’ in a different way…
What do online shoppers do when they nail a good deal online at Ask Deals?
Why they dance, of course!
Â
That’s the message behind a new round of Ask advertisements hitting the airwaves, and we’re excited to share some of them below.
Â
Today, what we’re most excited about is our new Ask Deals ‘microsite’ that features an interactive version of the jingle you hear in the TV spots – allowing our Ask customers to share and join in the celebration of saving money:
How does it work? Just go to the Ask Deals microsite and enter the name of an item in the Ask Deals search box, and then use your webcam to record yourself dancing and singing along to the Ask Deals catchy tune.
When you’re done, share the experience with your friends on Facebook. When you submit your video to the microsite, a link will be posted after you sign into Facebook to your News Feed. The posts will link your friends back to the Ask Deals microsite, so they can watch your video and create their own:
Voila! A savings star is born!
But don’t just take our word (or their word!) for it. Check out Ask Deals, conduct a search for what you’re shopping for, and you’ll see why we’re encouraging everyone to ‘Ask’ before they shop. With Ask Deals, you get the best deals from all over the internet, all in one place.
Â
With Halloween, ‘Black Friday’, and the holiday season all coming up – now is the perfect time to save early, and often!Â

P.S. – A ‘tip o’ the hat’ to the folks at Agency.com in San Francisco (a unit of Omnicom) for being a great ‘dance’ partner…
