Mothercare has broken group buying site LivingSocial’s record for daily deals. The parenting brand sold almost 22,000 vouchers in a week, valued at $2.9m.
The announcement:
Mothercare tops the record for sales on Australia’s number one daily deals site, LivingSocial, selling 21,643 vouchers in seven days, with a total pre-discount retail value of $2.9 million.
