Hi minifigW, the coupons forum does not get too many posts so that's why its been combined. The other forum that would be most relevant would be Sales & Deals.

I think the reason the "Coupon" forum/section was low on posts is that the use of Coupons is minimal by most. Now, this section (YMMV Deals Reports) will probably see a decrease too due to use of "Coupons" in the title.

I would suggest removing the word "Coupon" from the section title completely, it's just not appealing, and most won't bother to look/post here. Instead of improving the Coupon section post count you may have lowered the YMMV post count too.

LEGO IN-STORE DEALS - seems to work best.

Just my 2 cents.

Regards,

Geoff

To me the forum should be called 'LEGO YMMV & Coupon Deals'.

Coupons should be in with regular sales not ymmv. The coupons are usually insignificant so lots of folks don't care about them. I check out the ymmv section to find out when certain stores start doing their big discounts like 50% or more off. Coupons for 10-30% off are not exciting. The coupons should only be mentioned if Barnes and Noble is doing some big clearance sales and then they also have a stackable coupon on it... my 2 cents.
