  4. Mike: Lexus used its holiday promotion to both raise money for a charity and promote its "December to Remember" sales event, both on the same Facebook tab
  5. Mike:Walmart delivered a personalized shopping experience.
  6. Mike:Here's an example of Best Buy, which promoted its Black Friday savings on Facebook and on its website, giving great deals on the day after Thanksgiving
