COUPONS.COM LAUNCHES COUPONS ON TWITTER

For First Time Leading Network for Digital Coupons Will Alert People to New Offers as They Become Available

Mountain View, Calif. ‒ March 25, 2009 ‒ Consumers who use the popular Twitter micro blogging service can now stay up to date on the latest offers from Coupons.com, the leading network for digital coupons. With Coupons.com via Twitter, followers of http://twitter.com/Coupons will automatically receive new coupon offers as they become available. The tweets will include links to the printable coupons for quick printing.

Twitter is yet another way Coupons.com is reaching consumers where they want to be reached.
