TeamBuy.ca and SellOffVacations.com Create Exclusive Packages with Substantial Savings

Online Retailers Join Forces to Offer Canadians Unique Travel Features

TORONTO, May 9, 2012 /CNW/ - TeamBuy.ca, Canada's first group-buying website, and SellOffVacations.com, a leader in online travel retail, have come together in a joint partnership to provide exclusive vacation packages available only to TeamBuy.ca subscribers. Accessible through the TeamBuy Travel vertical, the custom SellOffVacations.com trips will offer TeamBuyers striking discounts and unique travel experiences to Europe, Mexico, Caribbean and the United States. The partnership will also provide travel suppliers unparalleled brand exposure to over a million shoppers who frequent the online shopping destination.

Much like other deals available on TeamBuy, the SellOffVacations.com features will be available to consumers for a limited time to purchase. The packaged deals will include a combination of discounted flights, hotel packages, spa treatments, cruises, golf getaways and more - helping Canadians experience the convenience and relaxation of all inclusive vacationing. Savings will be substantial - up to 40 per cent off retail rates found on traditional online travel sites. Upon purchase, users will have 60 days to use their voucher, as most departure dates have a 60-day threshold.

"With the help of SellOffVacations.com, TeamBuy continues to push the envelope to offer our subscribers unique shopping experiences," says Ghassan Halazon, CEO, TeamBuy.ca. "The SellOffVacations.com exclusive deals will add international experiences and packages to our Travel Category that our TeamBuyers already seem ecstatic about."

A trend leader in the travel retail space, SellOffVacations.com not only offers TeamBuy users compelling deals on desired vacation destinations from around the world but also significant discounts to Canadian travelers looking to cut down on costs as taxes, fuel costs and travel expenses continue to rise.

"Teambuy.ca has a commitment to offering Canadians amazing value with exclusive offers across most product categories, so when it came time for them to expand into more travel, we felt that we were a perfect partner, as SellOffVacations.com brings over 30 years of experience offering the Lowest Price Guaranteed to Canadian travelers", says Janine Chapman, Vice President of Retail, SellOffVacations.com.

A key player in the 'social-buying' space, TeamBuy continues to expand its offerings through innovative partnerships and applications, providing Canadians with a vast array of accessible deals at their fingertips.
