Coupons first saw widespread use in the United States in 1909 when C. W. Post conceived the idea to help sell breakfast cereals and other products. Today, more than 700 corporations offer coupons for discounts on products or services. Each year, coupons for consumer packaged goods generate nearly 3 billion dollars in transactions within the U.S. alone.
There are many different types of online coupons such as discounts, free shipping, first-time customer coupons, and free giveaways.
Interesting!! Thanks for sharing the history of coupons.
