Say you're going out with a girl you just met for the first time, or a guy if you swing that way really the gender doesn't matter much, but you had just met recently. You're taking them to a 3-star restaurant, so not too expensive or pricey. But you use a coupon to make the bill a little cheaper, or something else that lowers the cost of the meal. Do you think it's bad to use a coupon on a first date with someone? I say it isn't, if it's a first date, nothing's set in stone yet. You could be spending upwards of hundreds of dollars to go on one date that doesn't plan out. For first dates, I think it's perfectly okay to get it as discounted as possible. Later on though, if it starts to turn into something serious, that's when you don't use them.
