Introducing our first national Google Offer with REI and a new Android app

Today we’re running our very first national Google Offer and it’s with my favorite national outdoor retailer, REI. If you enjoy hiking, biking, running, and sleeping under the stars then you’ll love our deal with REI -- the brand that’s outfitted and inspired adventurers since 1938. We’re also releasing our first Google Offers mobile app that’s now available for free in Android Market. At last, you can discover, purchase and redeem great offers even when you’re on the road.
