According to the study, which was conducted by Northumbria University researchers, stubble is the way to win a woman’s heart. As for the reason, why women find men with stubble attractive: they find them tough, mature, aggressive, dominant and masculine and the best romantic partners. The findings of the experiment, carried out on British women aged 18 to 44, could explain the appeal of actors such as George Clooney and Brad Pitt who cultivate their unshaven look. The explanation for the preference is not clear, but experts in human evolution say that that facial hair may be a signal of aggression because it boosts the apparent size of the lower jaw. The research team believes that stubbly men may offer women the best worlds - not too strongly masculine, but mature and with the potential to grow a full beard. The researchers carried out the study using computer technology to alter pictures of 15 men’s faces. Five levels of facial hair were used - clean-shaven, light stubble, heavy stubble, light beard and full beard. The pictures were shown to 76 women who were asked to rate them for masculinity, aggression, dominance, attractiveness, age, and social maturity. They were also asked how desirable each man would be as a short-term or long-term partner. Faces with full beards were judged to be the most masculine, aggressive and socially mature. They were also believed to look five years older. They were rated the least attractive and the worst choice for a short-term relationship. Men with light beards were considered the most dominant. Those with light stubble were rated the most attractive and as the ideal romantic partner for short or long term. Clean-shaven men finished bottom for masculinity, dominance, aggression, and social maturity and they were the least favoured choice as a long-term partner. They came second-to-last for attractiveness. “Facial hair, or beardedness, is a powerful sociosexual signal, and an obvious biological marker of sexual maturity. Facial hair may have been sexually selected by females on the basis of associated male success, despite its threatening appearance. Clean-shaven faces therefore may suggest appeasement, as well as being an obvious sign of sexual immaturity,” the Telegraph quoted the researchers, as saying. "Increasing levels of facial hair were associated with increased perceptions of aggression, in that bearded faces were perceived as being the most aggressive, whilst clean-shaven faces were rated as being the least aggressive. And as facial hair increased in a linear fashion, so did female ratings of masculinity and dominance,” they added.

Smart shoppers use coupons. Coupons can help people save a lot of money in the course of every day shopping. It's no different in the car rental business where car rental coupons and online discount codes help people rent cars in some cases for a ridiculously low cost.

Coupons are a marketing tool. They serve as advertising, often appearing in newspapers or home delivered coupon circulars. They make people aware of a brand and because of an offered discount encourage people to try the brand. It's common knowledge that a big part of the battle is getting people to try something. Particularly if it's quality, they'll keep using it. Coupons, including rental coupons help attract new customers and keep existing customers coming back for more. In the rental car business where one offer and company looks a lot like the next, that's important.

Many coupons do nothing more than offer a customer the normal price, compared to the penalized higher price for people who don't use the coupon. In fact, that's the way a smart consumer looks at coupons. Given there are coupons out there for the same products every day, that coupon discounted price is the price. Only foolish and lazy people would ignore coupons, paying more for these goods.

For car rentals there are plenty of sites that help people find the best deals, coupons and discount codes. Rentalcarmomma (http://www.rentalcarmomma.com) is just one of them. A quick search on Google or Yahoo will find more. Many of these coupons or discount codes depend on other items, such as using a particular credit card when paying or a particular online service when booking. It's smart to perform a search of these deals, but then to compare the total price amongst many merchants. For example if there is a coupon for booking car rental on Travelocity, check other sites like Cheaptickets that may offer the same coupons, or list car rentals that are cheaper than the Travelocity listings plus coupons. Remember that coupons are often used to encourage people to select something they wouldn't otherwise purchase. Think about why people look to other products before choosing one just because there's a coupon.

Most rental car companies have deals that don't depend on coupons. These can be deals such as $1 a day rental for one way travel to Florida during the fall, to special discounts for government employees and members of the military. Some rental companies have even been known to offer free rental cars to veterans or to people in special circumstances.

Car rental coupons should definitely be taken into consideration when looking for a rental vehicle. Be careful, be smart, compare, and then get every penny you can taken off the price via a coupon.
