Abstract:

A printed promotional coupon comprises a multiple-product base coupon and a plurality of product stamps. The product stamps bear indicia defining a coupon redemption value for a particular product purchase. The coupon acquires value and becomes effective only by the affixing of one or more stamps onto the base coupon, each at a location which bears indicia corresponding to the associated stamp. The coupon holder can determine the overall redemption value of the coupon by selecting the number of stamps affixed, corresponding to the number of different products purchased at any retail store carrying the products. In one embodiment, the base coupon and product stamp form a single sheet, with the product stamps being detachable from the base coupon. In another embodiment, the product stamps are on a card or sheet separate from but distributed with the base coupon.

Abstract:

An exercise assist device includes a platform having an upper surface configured to support an individual standing thereon and a lower surface, and a base connected to the lower surface, the base configured to engage an underlying surface. The platform is cantilevered relative to the base and is movable between a first position where the platform extends generally parallel to or spaced from the underlying surface and a second position where the platform is tilted downward to engage the underlying surface. The base acts as a fulcrum to permit downward tilting of the platform from the first position to the second position when a center of gravity is moved forward to a predetermined extent relative to the base. A method of using the exercise assist device includes standing on the upper surface of the platform, bending and straightening the individual's knees while maintaining the platform in the first position.
