Not only are they the fastest growing segment on Facebook, games like Farmville and Cityville are the kinds of online social activities they engage in the most. And, what’s more, this consumer group is identical in make-up to the average Kirkland’s customer.When players engage in the promo, a wall post appears on their profile and in their friends’ news feeds.
