I only wish I knew about coupons when I was dating. I would have used them on EVERY date. If they didn't like it, well, they would then have to WALK home.
On Valentine's Day I took my wife to dinner at Ruby Tuesday's. Total bill was 50 bucks. I used a free entree coupon to knock 15 bucks off the total bill and then paid for the rest with one of my infamous "stealth coupons" (don't ask, research). Total cost to me: $0.00 and I was still able to tip the waiter $15.
BTW, PJ is now just 10 coupons away from buying a FREE laptop computer.
I was formerly with a woman who usually REFUSED to eat anywhere we DIDN’T have a coupon for!
A sensible man would intentionally use a coupon on the first date, to weed out the women who don’t appreciate the value of a dollar.
be frugal on the everyday things to afford the luxuries
i myself am a big coupon guy
i absolutely love them
i saved over a hundred bucks on food last month in coupons and up to around 35 this month
heck i even had a rebate coupon for free razors
would i whip one out on a first date? probably not but i really think this woman is superficial for dumping him over it.
It seems to me that you’d have to be pretty damned shallow to be upset over something like that.
On second thought, maybe its a great way to screen women on first dates. If the little princess gets upset about that, ditch the b**** and RUN. Its a clear indicator of her expectations from the relationship.
To tell you the truth I hate coupons, especially when I want to shop and get out. The person in front of me seems to always have fifty coupons, with 15 of the them expired. If the manufacturer can sell the products at that cost, then they should do so. If it is for advertising, be more creative, sell at cheaper price for a set term without coupons, or have a better product.
My eighty year old mother, who was VERY attractive in her day, upon overhearing a conversation of my then-twenty-something daughter:
“You AREN’T paying for your dinner are you?!! Why, I never heard of such a thing!! What kind of man would go out with you and have YOU pay for dinner??!”
While, in later life, my mother never went out to dinner without her coupon book, she would have been shocked and appalled at a man using a coupon to pay for a date’s dinner.
Ah, for the good ole days...
Depends where on her body she uses it.
Yeah he was already using the meal to get cheap sex. You can’t double up on coupons for that! ;-)
I would dump a chick for using Federal Reserve notes. If she wants to hang with the Sloth, she’ll pay in gold, or barter. Paying with fiat paper is tacky.
If I were still single, and a girl got mad because I’d used a coupon, I’d dump the selfish, vacuous little twit in a heartbeat.
She is nuts for not asking him where he got the coupon!
Answer: Dump that guy, and fast.
You’ll be doing him a favor.
Women can be weird about coupon use. I’ve used food coupons rarely in my sixty years, but my wife has a coupon for everything, god bless her. However, just try to give a gift certificate for money to my wife instead of a tangible gizmo. Grounds for divorce!!
But then, what kind of a man would read COSMO? (Did ya subscribe to it using coupons?)
Depends on whether the food was good or bad.
If the food was really good, you know she’s going to look for the coupon to take her friends there.
If the food was bad? Who wants to spend(it will seem like) eternity with someone who likes to eat crap?
>it might be something appearance oriented
Such as, “would you dump a girl who had fake boobs?”
Reading “Cosmo” was the first mistake.
