As part of Fashion's Night Out and until October 10th, shoppers can visit any of the 469 Forever 21 U.S. locations and play SCVNGR to win awesome rewards, such as 10%, 15% and 21% discounts off of in-store merchandise, and the chance to win a free outfit. Sample challenges include:

• "Denim Is In:" Check out the clip on all our denim styles & then tell us what your favorite is.
• "Super Speedy Fashion:" What Forever 21 item would you choose to transform an outfit in a flash? Tell us which accessory you can't live without.
• "What To Wear:" The right outfit can make you feel like a million bucks. Put together a new look, go to the fitting room and snap a pic of yourself wearing your new outfit.

"Forever 21 has quickly become the source for the most current fashions at the greatest value, and we're thrilled to provide students with even more ways to save money as they settle into the school year," said Linda Chang, Senior Marketing Manager for Forever 21. "By introducing mobile challenges on SCVNGR, we've created an exciting shopping experience for our customers and a new way for them to engage with our products."
