[ic] Discounts and coupon tracking?

[Jon Shoberg]

  Thoughts on associating and tracking a code with a particular item?

  [discount] and [item-discount] will show me the change in values. 
However, I'd like to track a code/value with this and log with 
transactions.  In some basic testing it doesn't appear that session will 
track using an associative array / hash.

Something like ...

  1) user enters coupon number
  2) lookup number in a coupon table
  3) if active, apply discount
  4) store discount code/valuey persistant means
  5) at checkout verify discounts and log transaction


Thoughts?
