Volkswagen and Bliss Offer Customers a Day of Indulgence
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., June 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Volkswagen of America, Inc.
has paired ignitions with indulgence as a result of its partnership with
Bliss Spa. On Saturday, June 7 at the North Scottsdale Volkswagen
dealership, customers can enjoy select spa treatments after test driving
Volkswagen vehicles, enter to win a complimentary manicure, facial or
massage, and sample brownies in the Bliss "You Be The Fudge" contest.
"Volkswagen is excited to partner with a like-minded brand such as
Bliss," said Mya Walters, Manager Lifestyle Public Relations, Volkswagen of
America, Inc. "Volkswagen welcomes opportunities to show our customer
appreciation and we're happy to collaborate with Bliss to offer unique and
exciting amenities to our customers visiting the dealership."
An air-conditioned tent will be erected on site where Volkswagen

chocolate fudge brownies to see which recipe will win the Bliss Scottsdale

accents and eyelashes. The Blissmobile travels to major cities complete
with a brownie buffet inside ready to crown the next title in the "You Be
The Fudge" contest, serving up Bliss products to people on the street. The
Volkswagen Blissmobile will be present at the North Scottsdale Volkswagen
