One lesson that stuck with me from B-School:eyephone said:Update: I bought it yesterday. I tried to apply the GC to the purchase, but the activation date of the GC is the next day.
Some of the worst coupons (for consumers) are the ones that offer a promise of a future discount if a purchase is made today.
Not only is the store getting the item sold today (at full value), but it's also booking a potential future sale if/when you come back, when you will likely spend more on other items again. Deals like the buy-one-get-one-half-off (bogoho) or promos like "Kohl's Cash" were the examples given as the biggest consumer traps.

It's good if you can make it work. I went to Lowes when I first moved it and got $600 Lowes Gift card for spending over 5K or something. A few weeks later it was memorial day weekend.. so I took my receipt in for price matching,which they did. Then later the gift card game! SUCCESS! Paid for my backsplash.
