Is the the translation of cupom, coupon in English?

Hi!

Yes, "cupom" is coupon in Portuguese, but to be honest with you, here in Brazil we don´t have that kind of "coupon culture", like in USA. People don´t use to cut them from the newspapers... actually, we don´t have coupons printed on magazines or newspapers... only in a few places like the "yellow pages" (and again, nobody cares...).

It´s common to relate "cupom" to fiscal issues (Taxes): we say "cupom fiscal", which is a kind of "tax invoice". And another one: we fill in a "cupom" (with our name, address, etc) to participate in a contest (draw).

No idea about what happens in Portugal. Maybe some of you guys could help here: Is the coupons popular in Portugal??

Best regards,

Celo.
