Over 12,000 vouchers have been sold at $188 each within 24 hours!

HONG KONG, Nov. 16, 2010 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- uBuyiBuy.com, the leading online group buying website in Southeast Asia, is excited to announce that the featured deal on November 15 and November 16 is an amazing offer for fun seekers traveling between Hong Kong and Macau, offering HK$188 (up to HK$344 value) on round trip economy class ferry tickets aboard the leading ferry operator, TurboJET.  Offer is valid for both ex-Hong Kong and ex-Macau departures.  Overwhelming response has been generated, with over 12,000 vouchers sold in 24 hours since the deal commenced at 12:00 midnight on November 15.

"TurboJET" has 45 years of passenger shipping experience and over 1,800 dedicated employees, with a vast network of affiliated hotels and tourist attractions in Macau, namely The Westin Resort, Mandarin Oriental, Regency Hotel, Hotel Sintra, the famous Hotel Lisboa and the city's iconic tourist landmark -- Macau Tower Convention & Entertainment Centre.

"As an innovative and progressive ferry service provider, we have chosen to work with uBuyiBuy, a market leader in Group Buying, as our partner in our initiative to capitalize upon the fast growing power of Social Media.  We are pleased with the tremendous response we have seen so far, in terms of the number of vouchers sold as well as all the traction in online discussion forums.  The buzz is essential in our brand building efforts and we are already discussing with uBuyiBuy on another promotion for December, offering packaged ferry and hotel deals for holidaymakers," said Anna Hong, Deputy General Manager of TurboJET.

"uBuyiBuy.com is very happy to be able to work with such a prestigious and well established brand such as that of TurboJET.  We first looked at their objectives into what they wanted out of the promotion and catered specifically in meeting those objectives through the use of our platform.  We help create buzz and in 24 hours, you cannot establish this type of phenomenal response with any other type of marketing.  It gives big brands a new channel to reach customers in which it normally does not have access to and this itself creates tons of value.  We will continue to constantly push the bar higher and seek out new promotions which are not only good for the marketers, but also our consumers.  The main goal is that we create a win-win situation for our merchants and our consumers," said Danny Yeung, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder of uBuyiBuy.com.
