Abstract

An electronic periodical advertisement including a number of time dependent offers is generated, e.g., using a computing device. The offers are organized into a number of modules. A default set of the modules is presented to a user. The default set of modules is edited to generate a user-defined set of modules. A user-defined electronic periodical advertisement including the user-defined set of modules is presented to the user.
