Show them you care with real drinks- all on facebook! GetThemIn is a Facebook application (http://apps.facebook.com/getthemin) that lets people to purchase each other real beer, wine or other liquor for the first time ever – superb for meeting those last minute Christmas present quandaries or getting the Christmas drinks in with your buds without actually being there.

The service comes at a great time too since Christmas can be a terror when it comes to buying all those last-minute presents and making sure you see all your friends for a seasonal drink. With a GetThemIn participating store within walking distance  of most folks in the UK, it’s a really cool, instant way of making people remembered.

There’s even better news. People can select from a mix of drinks and other real-world gifts and send them to their friends using Facebook platform and PayPal. Recipients receive a personalised note from the sender via SMS, email and Facebook, with the option to keep it virtual or get their gift as a voucher that can then be exchanged for one of hundreds of First Quench outlets across the UK. This of course includes Threshers, The Local, Wine Rack and Haddows.  Ain’t that  so cool?

If all this confuses you, there’s a short videoclip to explain how it all works , so head on over to http://www.tinyurl.com/getthemin to see how ‘John’ helped Jay celebrate his birthday and Jay helped cheer up ‘Chris’ who’s just been dumped by his special other.

Drink brands for grabs  on the GetThemIn application include Fosters, Cobra, Heineken, Tuborg, San Miguel, Bulmers Cider, Newcastle Brown, WKD Blue, Old Peculier, Blossom Hill, Hardy’s, Taittinger, Radcliffe’s D.B., Teacher’s, Cockburn’s S.R., Harvey’s Bristol Cream and Courvoisier V.S.  More to come. Don’t worry!

While the spirits get you high, the service will also get your Spirit high because a percentage of its profits go to COUNTED4, a unique venture that treats, counsels and promotes the health and well-being of anyone affected by substance misuse.
