Heck, Performance LOVES having their coupons "stolen". It's advertising for them - that's why they put them out there. It's a psychological ploy to make you think you're getting a better deal or they're doing you a favor. But they get a sale out of it either way and have plenty of margin to take it.
VeloOrange, on the other hand doesn't have the margins and doesn't need to attract business that way - if you're shopping at VeloOrange, it's probably becase nobody else has hat funky old part you need!
