How does the rest of the country pan out? New Yorkers prefer online discount codes, while Missourians are on the lookout for grocery coupons, according to RetailMeNot.com, a Web company that compiles coupons and discounts from the Internet.
RetailMeNot.com's founder, Guy King, talks about the growing popularity of coupons, in the online-discount or paper-coupon debate.
"Our take on it is that the recession almost made it OK to use coupons. It was suddenly a logical thing to do rather than be embarrassed about it." King observes that the recession made coupons a normality. It's no longer uncool to use coupons. If you do use coupons, you'll save money, and saving money is cool. Especially in a recession.
