take on the coupon

Is there anything that feels more disingenuous than having a guy give you a quote for a job and then when you mention you have a coupon they say that they can’t apply it because you didn't mention it originally.   I've had two instances in the last few weeks where I've gotten quotes for various things around the house and in both cases when I went to book the work and tried to apply a coupon the company listed online, they said that they couldn't honor it.    In both cases they said that they have already offered us the lowest price for the required work which means only one thing.   They will quote you the same final price with or without coupon; it’s just how they’ll present it to you.

You can ask a quote for a chimney lining and get $2700 or you can tell them you have a coupon and they’ll quote you $3000 minus $300 for a grand total of…. You got it
