Facebook joins the discount scene – Android app now supports Facebook Deals

Your official Android Facebook app ought to be updating itself right about now, with the new version (v1.5.1) including support for what Facebook is calling “Facebook Deals”.

Here’s the official line on the changes from Facebook:

Everybody loves a deal. Now you to can get access to Facebook Deals with the new Facebook for Android v1.5.1 – available free from the Android Market today. This update also fixes a number of bugs and includes all the goodness of Chat and push notifications (for 2.2+ devices) that was in v1.5.

This updated Android app actually launched late last week, but only today has the Facebook Deals service launched in the UK. So you should be able to use it.

But we don’t get any Facebook Deals because we live in the country, where there aren’t any places to “check in” to. You might see some Facebook Deals on your Android app if you live in a town and have access to Starbucks and Subway and all that lot.
