Visiting coupon, refunding or bargain sites may, at first, seem
like visiting a foreign country. You see phrases such as:
GDA! BBW B&M BOGO on soaps, HTH
And you think WHAT? Huh? What are they talking about? What
language is THAT?
(Translation: Good Deal Alert! Bath & Body Works
brick-and-mortar store has buy-one-get-one on soaps, hope this
helps!)
I mean, it’s enough to make you want to TYHO!
(Tear Your Hair Out – I made that one up.)
Before you click away in frustration, let me reassure you that
it IS possible to speak like a native – you just need a guide to
the terminology, acronyms, abbreviations, definitions and common
word usage found on rebate and premium product lists, coupon and
online code lists, and refunding and trading forums.
Each site you visit may have its own particular phrases, but
generally speaking the most common terms are found in the list
