The power of a coupon

Coupon sites are a huge trend in the retail industry these days. No one wants to pay regular prices and why not, consumers all know of the huge margins that most retailers have and want to make their money stretch as far as possible. RetailMeNot is one of the newer entrants to the coupon scene and has been around only for 6 months, but has over 1 million visitors every month who have contributed 35,000 coupons that can be used online. I was surprised to see so many target coupon code options for discounts ranging from 10% off to $5 off a $50 order at their site. A really cool feature of the site is a firefox extension that can be downloaded, so that it reminds you to enter a coupon code whenever you are buying something online. If you want alerts in your email, you can sign up with the Hot coupons newsletter, which can be selected for a single retailer or for all of them combined.
