Download coupons and you get tons of popups and viruses attached to the software it requires to upload in order to print the coupons.

I gather you get paid for each person that clicks on these sites.

I download coupons all the time, and never get popups or viruses.

Some of the coupon sites online may not be reputable....especially the ones who require you to download some odd program in order to print their coupons. The better coupon sites don't have this requirement. Also, sometimes the best coupons are on the direct manufacturers site.

No coupons or offers posted on here are credited or linked back to the poster of the offer. It is against City Data TOS. Sometimes people try, but the post is always reported as spam and removed.

I've never gotten a virus from any site posted on City Data offering a sample or discount. I also use AVG FREE for my computer protection.

I use Norton Anti-Virus, and NOTHING gets through. I get my coupons through the regular well known coupon sites.
