Couponing..

Value for money? Everybody wants to feel their hard earned dollars are getting them what they’re expecting, and finding a discount or coupon to accompany your purchase is a great bonus/find. There are many booklets, websites and programs that offer coupons to a variety of attractions, services and products but buyer beware.

Not all coupon websites are legit. Meaning, that the place of business hasn’t authorized that their coupon be displayed on that website. Large scams are reported in the news, like the one from this past summer affecting Canada’s Wonderland.  redgroupdeals.com was selling tickets on behalf of businesses but was not authorized to do so. Customer’s would purchase the discount and arrive at the business only to find out the coupon wasn’t legit and they had now lost that money.

To avoid making a mistake on an unknown deals’ website – try and ensure their legitimacy. You can check out the attractions website for information or call them directly and inquire. There are some great coupon websites out there like Groupon & Red Flag Deals, as well as some specifically for families with kids.
