I grew up saying Qu-pon, but my husband made fun of me enough, so now I mostly say coupon. It's still more fun to say qu-pon. 🙂
Angela Walker
I don't understand the difference?
Amy
I also think I said "Q-pon" as a child, but now it feels funny saying it that way. I say "coo-pon."
@Angela, you can here both pronunciations if you go to m-w.com and look up the definition!
Amy
I totally meant "hear" not "here" -- I do know the difference!
Julie
Definitely coo-pon. It comes from a French word "couper," meaning "to cut."
Beth Anne
I have always said "coo-pon" but I know my grandmother says "q-pon"

I used to say Qu-pon, but somewhere along the line I switched over to COO-pon, and now when I hear someone say KEW-pon I think it sounds funny!!!! Go figure!!

I say "coupon", and I'm pretty sure I twitch a little when someone around me says "q-pon." annon has the best pronunciation in my book.
