The problem with coupons is two-fold: they make you buy things you don’t need; they’re never available for the stuff you want. Coupon site “Retail Me Not” has some useful tools to make coupons more convenient—I might even start using coupons again.
First of all, you can search their coupon database by URL. Want to see what discounts are good at Amazon today? Just type in “Amazon.com”. But since the results from that are going to be fairly scattershot—who goes out to shop with the intention to spend money at a specific store?—Retail Me Not’s tools that plug into that coupon database are much more practical, such as the Firefox extension that will alert you if the site you’re currently browsing has any deals, or a Mac dashboard widget that is updated with the greatest deals.

Actually, the search by URL may be meaningful, if you have scrip or gift certificates that are only good at a particular store. For example, I have Barnes & Noble scrip and Borders scrip right now that I want to spend, so I’m very likely to check their stores when I want to make book or music purchases.
retailmenot is cool and different from traditional coupon sites like couponalbum and couponclipper.
contents are good but it needs to be more organized like couponalbum, where user can sort all coupons by store popularity or name. browse by categories, view store coupons by type like promotional, hot coupons, clearance, sale, free shipping, printable etc….
These CouponAlbum people are comment spammers. Do a google search and you’ll see what I mean.
