Charles: It may be meaningless to you, but its useful to me. As I said, its a survey, not a scientific study. Small sample sizes are used all the time by people and companies to help filter things out, or show promise that warrants additional, more substantial study. If I was doing an FDA drug...

NicksPizza: I saw that too. The numbers were all over the place, so the standard deviation doesn’t have much value. Its interesting that there is so much variety in how pizzeria operators use coupons. Here is the detail for the coupon answer: 1000 400 50 300 30 1500 500 3000 1000 400 15 0 0 0...

Thank you for the link. I found some very helpful information. I am still looking for some primary research sources and responses to a controlled set of questions. Academics like it that way so the responses can be compared and statistically analyzed. If you can spare a minute, I would...
