A method dealing with the marketing of manufacturer products using promotional coupons and web based point of sale technology that inventories and matches coupon promotions based on the demands of the consumer. Shopping lists are matched to coupons offered, which provides a mechanism for consumers to prioritize and anticipate buying based on expiration and/or value of coupons. Coupons are presented to the consumer via a website. As the consumer views each coupon, they can bank selected coupons. A coupon bank account is maintained including all coupons banked and redeemed. The consumer does not retain a physical coupon instead at the end of the transaction goods purchased are matched with the coupon bank selected by the consumer. Users are identified through the retailer's loyalty program or a universal coupon card for companies without a loyalty card. After products are matched the coupon value is deducted from the total bill. |
