When it comes to bookstore coupons, like Walden's/Borders or B&N they send out weekly coupons for members. Membership in the Borders Reward is Free with really good weekly coupons, while B&N membership does cost it also does an off the top discount on everything along with coupons. These were the main coupons I was thinking off since as far as I know individual authors cannot give out discount coupons without publisher permission, but 10% off or $1.00 coupons are honored all the time from different publishing houses. Authors can hyperlink them to their websites. Which leads me to... another sales driver, news-letters or web-letters. I get notifications from Baen, Random House, Berkley and many of my favorite authors. I have noticed most SciFi/Fantasy authors don't offer newsletters which just surprises me. A user friendly publishing site (like Baen (http://www.baen.com)'s) makes it so much easier to surf around. I saw in one of your other comments you were saying you have no skills in HTML, I believe Doranna Durgin has a web-building site that discounts for authors - let me check... okay it is called Blue Hound Visions (http://www.bluehoundvisions.com) there are links there that show some of her sites.
