If I wanted to create a joomla site that offers coupons like this one...
www.couponcabin.com
What components/modules would I need? Basically just for a local paper to advertise for local businesses and allow the local businesses to have coupons displayed on the site...
Any ideas would be greatly helpful.. I wanted to put together a site targeted at local small businesses.

Thanks Lee, I checked out nBill... Its a payment gateway, which is cool but what I need is some form of modification of OpenRealty, or a modified version of mosets?
Basically, like a coupon repository (coolsavings.com) where merchants who run ads in the magazine can post online counterparts of their coupons... -

- In hindsight maybe not you're really after something quite specific here aren't you. Are you wanting to charge clients for posting the ads?

- Possibly, but that would be handled externally with ad insertions, not necessarily a function needed on the website... Basically it just comes with their ad insertion package for the newspaper...

Here's a good coupon site that has some nice features for inspiration:
www.retailmenot.com/
I like how they have the onMouseover for the codes, copies to the clipboard, and fires the affiliate window...nice.
And the 'Did this coupon work for you' yes/no counter is a nice touch, too.

The ad insertion COULD be automatic, but it would have to tie in with a quickbooks database or whatever so for now, no... I am guessing they could register on the site with a code, and then post their coupons?
What would be the best way to do it? -

The BEST way to do it, as always, is to hire someone who knows what they're doing to create something to your specification. You're looking for something VERY specific - which means even if you do find something that comes close to resembling something that you MAY consider thinking about using, you're going to be stuck with a bunch of overhead and functionality that may or may not get out of the way of your final goal.
It's a commercial project - treat it with the respect it deserves. - Ragdata's Rubber Duck
