On average I'd say amazon is cheaper, yet I can't remember the last time I bought a book on Kobo full price - and if I don't have at least a 50% coupon, I don't buy. Yes, I am spoiled, but if you have a look at the Kobo thread in the "Deals.." forum you will see why.

Again, check the thread in the "Deals..." forum, you will find loads of coupons, even up to 90% (rare, but it happens).

it depends on the browser, some have a new checkout, some still on the old one - in the new checkout you have to go past the first screen (don't worry, they won't charge you yet), and on the second screen you can enter the promo code - not all books are couponable, though if you are lucky enough to live in Mexico, virtually all books are couponable.

EDIT: one thing to look out for on Kobo is that some books are in pdf, and some are only available in Kobo proprietary kepub format (a sort of epub), so to read these you need an app... or follow eschwartz's advice!
