And that is the power of Twitter!
Every week I get these emails from Travelzoo, usually I don't pay much attention. Well, I have been thinking about going up to Los Angeles (well, Carson) again to see another Galaxy soccer game, and out of nowhere I get an email from Travelzoo informing me that there is a 50% off promo for the game I want to go to. Sweet!
So all excited I follow the link to buy the tickets, and it turns out that to get the promo on Ticketmaster you need to enter a promo code... Uh oh, no code was in the Travelzoo email or the linked page on their site. So I look all over their site for a way to ask questions. Can't find one. The contact page is just a generic "comments" form. Bummer. Replying to the email probably won't get a reply. So I try Google. Nothing.
Oh wait, Twitter! I find them on Twitter, said an @Travelzoo tweet, and there you go, less than 2 hours later I get the promo code!
And that, people, is the power of Twitter.
