I LOVE coupons. I'd probably have to throw in some sort of joke to smooth things over. Something like, "Hey, I've got this coupon which would make it like dessert was free." Ok, so that's not really a joke, but you see what I'm saying. I would definitely take the coupon along and try to use it if the situation didn’t feel awkward. I LOVE coupons.

It would probably have to wait until month 3, if that, of dating. I am generally reading into what the person I am on a date with says and does as an indication of who this person is, and I would be afraid that the use of a coupon would be interpreted as saying that I am a cheapskate, which I am not. I just enjoy saving money.

Hate coupons, never use 'em, therefore wouldn't use one on the first date, or any other. And it's NOT that I'm a spendthrift... I am actually quite miserly. I just resent companies making me break out my scissors. Scissors are for arts, crafts, and the occasional chicken breast. You wanna give me a break? Great. Just give me the damn break. Don't make me jump through a hoop. Whew. I feel better now. Thanks so much for asking. Nope. Hate coupons, never use ‘em, therefore wouldn’t use one on the first date, or any other.

Not only would I use it I would likely say "Hey, wanna go here, I've got a COUPON!!!" If she's not also cheap we aren't a good match anyways. LOL!!! Ha Ha – I am cheap.
