Coupons
When you think of a coupon, what comes to mind? I think of being a child, a cutting the coupons out of the Sunday paper with my mom, because we were too poor to buy food without them. But, we'd save our 50 cents, or buy one - get one free, or something.
I'd assume, while not everyone shares my memories, you probably share my concept of a coupon.
Today, however, some fascist has given the name of "coupon" to a very non-coupon item. Student loan payments. How does my paying my student loans involve coupons? Every time I have to rip my "payment coupon" out of my "coupon book." Yet, I have never got a free payment, or half off, or anything other deal commonly associated with coupons.
If my two student loans that have coupon books isn't enough, I now have a coupon book for my car payment. Three damn coupon books that all cost me money.
