    Default coupons

    Do you people ever get coupons with the use of a certain credit card?
    I got a Capitol 1 20% off at childrens place, but the problem is I have no kids.
    Back in December I bought a gift card for my cousin to buy clothes for his baby.

    that day I actualy used my green card. you know when somebody gives you a gift a box of cookies or a bottle of wine you say thank you , if you don't like the gifts you can leave it out in your place. But you can't say anything to whoever gave you the gift.

    Capitol 1 could have sent a Victorias secret 20% off or Bergdorf goodman, with having no
    kids it doesn't matter what I got I have no kids how am I going to use the coupon?

    At work I asked some girls who have kids if they would be intrested in the coupon
    answers were like I go straight home after work , a couple can't make any comminents,
    2 have no money another said she is to busy to go shopping, 1 would rather go to a bar than go shopping.

    it seems like when we get coupons with our Discover or bank credit card it's for something that we can't use.

    Do you people get a lot of coupons with any Visa, Mastercard, American express, Jcb or Discover card? or are they coupons that you can'y use?

    I agree with you, most of the coupons I receive from credit card companies are useless for me. Usually its crap like David and Harry fruit baskets and other things I would have no need to ever buy.

    However I have gotten a few good ones from American Express over the years. Have you used this? There are some decent coupons available: American Express Facebook Deals: Link, Like, Love
    Disclosure: I am a moderator/paid staff of this site, which does have advertising relationships with some credit cards that are discussed. Regardless, anything I say is my honest opinion.

    Current Cards:
    American Express: Blue Cash, Simply Cash Bank of America: WorldPoints Platinum Plus Chase: Amazon, British Airways, Cash Plus Rewards, Freedom, Ink Cash Citi: Thank You Premier, Dividend Platinum Select Discover: More
    Primary Everyday Card: American Express Blue Cash
    Primary Travel Card: Citi Thank You Premier

    Before Chase took over WaMu, I'd get coupons from them occasionally. They were always the same three companies, Harry & David, Omaha Steaks, and a third I forgot. Nowhere I shopped, then or now.

    Sounds to be the same places I have received coupons for and like you, they're of no use for me.
