-  : If the coupon has dates set, it can only be used on those dates. The end date is not inclusive, so coupon codes can be used on the start date, but not the end date. The dates are setup in the database as of midnight and are compared to "now" so if you're even one second past the end date at 00:00:00, it won't be valid for that day. For example, if you want a coupon to be valid on 11/27/2010 only, then you'll have to set the end date as 11/28/2010 because the 24 hours of valid coupon time will be from 11/27/2010 00:00:00 to 11/28/2010 00:00:00.+  : If the coupon has dates set, it can only be used within those date ranges. The start and end dates are inclusive, so coupon codes can be used on the start and end dates as well.
