I've had quite a few requests for a glossary of couponing terms. I'm really long overdue in posting this. Here is a basic glossary with some of the abbreviations and terms I'll use on the site. I'll archive this under "Getting Started" so you can always refer back to it. If you aren't familiar with the terms reading that you have to have a "Blinkie" might be really confusing!
