I don’t typically cover apps or widgets that send e-coupons to my cellular phone very often or at all, but I kind of dig the Green Perks app from T-Mobile. It’s the Oregonian in me, I swear.
So, what is Green Perks and why should I download it onto my T-Mobile device? That’s what you’re asking yourself, right? Well, it’s meant to send e-coupons from Green Perks partners who offer environmentally conscious products and/or services. Said partners include Method, Jamba Juice, Volcom, Roxy and Quiksilver. Quiksilver, for example, has a collection of Eco Friendly threads. Volcom also carries a line of 100 percent organic cotton duds under the V-Co.logical collection. So, yeah, those coupons might come in handy if you’re out shopping as they’re the POS type.
Green Perks is just another facet in the Mobilize initiative from T-Mobile to help their customers be a little more green and eco-friendly. Check it out at T-Mobile Mobilize.
It’s a nice idea…I always thought this was an easy way to reach a large buying public, coupons through cell phones like this.
I signed up, thinking it’ll be full of great JambaJuice discounts. So far it’s just a bunch of cleaning products at 20% off and NBAStore.com (how green is that?).
I really do hope they bring out some better vendors. Otherwise it’s just taking up 120Kb of my BB Curve’s memory. I’m giving it another 30 days.
