Coupon
In marketing, a coupon is a ticket or document that can be redeemed for a financial discount or rebate when purchasing a product.
Customarily, coupons are issued by manufacturers of consumer packaged goods or by retailers, to be used in retail stores as a part of sales promotions. They are often widely distributed through mail, coupon envelopes, magazines, newspapers, the Internet (social media, email newsletter), directly from the retailer, and mobile devices such as cell phones. Since only price conscious consumers are likely to spend the time to claim the savings, coupons function as a form of price discrimination, enabling retailers to offer a lower price only to those consumers who would otherwise go elsewhere. In addition, coupons can also be targeted selectively to regional markets in which price competition is great.
In government, a coupon is a paper certificate used to administer a benefit or permission.
Pronunciation
The word is of French origin, pronounced [kupɔ̃]. In Britain, the United States, and Canada it is pronounced /ˈkuːpɒn/ KOO-pon. A common alternate American pronunciation is /ˈkjuːpɑːn/ CUE-pahn.
8coupons
8coupons is a New York-based deal aggregator website that distributes deal updates and digital coupons to consumers based on weekly deals, customized online feeds, or the user's current location.
Originally the website focused on the local New York City metro, until in 2009 the company announced a series of content partnerships and new features for user-submitted deals that armed the website with 200,000 coupons across the country. Content partners include Valpak and Money Mailer and local bloggers across the country. In Feb, 2010, the company also began to aggregate from collective buying websites including Groupon, LivingSocial, Plum district, Adility Deal, Town Hog Half off Depot and about 178 others.
8coupon’s promotions, which are redeemed at the merchant using a cell phone, are considered more appealing to younger generations ages 18–35 in comparison to traditional paper coupons.
The company is themed with the number eight. 8coupons celebrates their anniversary on the 8th day of the 8th month, they have lists of the top eight deals, and their “OCHO LOCO” deals are all themed with the number eight. For example, the website has had 88 cent whiskey drinks, eight-cent falafels, and 88 cent burgers on the eight day of every month.

Zero
by: Caponesso you think i'm a zero?
i ain't trying to be no one's hero
i don't give two shits about what you think
i live my life one day at a time
live yours how you want that's fine
just leave me alone and i'll just drink away mine
sit at home and sleep all day
wake up and drink my life away
do what i do when i wanna do it
and live my life until i choose
yeah so i've had a few
i'll have more before i'm through
and i don't care about anyone or anything
all i want is a beer in my hand
don't care about the name on the can
just crack it open and drink it down like a champ
grab the whiskey, pour it in a cup
grab the coke then drink on up
do what we do when we wanna do it
and live our lives to how we choose
still think i'm a zero?
i ain't trying to be no one's hero
i don't give two shits about what you think
i live my life one day at a time
live yours how you want that's fine
just leave me alone and i'll just drink away mine
goes down smooth when you're good and drunk
tastes even better when it comes back up
do what we do when we wanna do it
