Yeah, I catch your drift - although I'm not sure I agree with it. There are a few places that have such reputations they don't need to put any effort into getting new customers in - witness, for example, French Laundy in my neck of the woods - but for the most part, even very good places will occasionally put some effort into getting new people in the door. There's nothing inherently worse about coupons and discounting than any other form of promotion.
