It’s well known, at least among certain New Jersey writers who’ve been chastised by their wives, that only a dummy shops at Macy’s without a coupon offering a big discount.

In fact a Google search for “Macy’s coupon” yields more than 57,000 results including many varieties of the “Friends & Family” program that offers 25 percent off. A “Dummy Husband” program would surely be popular, too, yet sadly there’s no trace of one on Google.
