Karrinyup sets up first ever social media shop so shoppers can exchange media posts for prizes

This week Karrinyup Shopping Centre is opening its first-ever pop-up Social Media Shop that will allow shoppers to exchange social media posts for prizes from Karrinyup retailers.

The currency in the store is ‘sharing’. Shoppers are invited to ‘share’ a Karrinyup fashion-related tweet, instagram or facebook post, including the two hashtags #karrinyupSS14 and #karrinyupSMS, and show the post to one of the staff members located in The Karrinyup Social Media Shop to claim a free prize from a Karrinyup retailer.

A simple fashion-related social media post with the hashtags #karrinyupSS14 and #karrinyupSMS will be rewarded with the likes of a luscious new lipstick or a T2 tea gift!

According to Claire Ridley, Marketing Manager of Karrinyup Shopping Centre, the pop-up Social Media Shop has been created to boost social media engagement, both online and offline. “We have an extremely active online community that is growing every day. The Social Media Shop provides an opportunity for us to meet our online ‘Friends’ and ‘Followers’ in person, and to reward them for their support,” said Ridley.

The Karrinyup Social Media Shop will be located outside the Main Entrance near Woolworths and will feature a wide range of prizes from a variety of Karrinyup retailers, including: Looksmart Alterations, kikki.K, T2 tea, Essential Beauty, Crabtree & Evelyn, Mimco and more.

Karrinyup will also be giving its shoppers the opportunity to win 7 major prizes daily, including: a GHD IV in Jade thanks to Price Attack, a $200 General Pants Gift Card, $100 Picnic Voucher, $100 Hobbs Voucher, $100 Jeanswest Denim Voucher, $200 Karrinyup Shopping Centre Gift Card and a Mimco clutch handbag.
