My company offers a number of one-off discounts to J&R (electronics), Apple, Dell, IBM, etc.
They also private label the offerings of Next Jump (www.nextjump.com). Next Jump bring in a boat load of discounts. Not sure it would meet the needs of your 'blue collar' work force but you could take a look.
With 300+ employees, you might have some leverage over your suppliers...perhaps you could swing an incentive. I'm sure your suppliers would be happy to have 300 potential captive clients.

No coupons, but we can get things at discounted prices by buying the tickets at work and not at the location... Great America Tickets and AMC Movie tickets are the two I can think of off the top of my head. I think the company just buys them in bulk and sells them one by one though.... they aren't really giving anything... just acting as middle man.

My wife works for a major bank in manhattan and her company offers all kinds of discounts via a company website. Ranging from day to day household goods to travel discounts to electronics. But from our price comparison it rarely offers any substantial discount and sometimes it's cheaper when on sale. The only time we have used it was to purchase some ski lift tickets and we receive a small discount but hardly worth the effort, IMO.

I've received baseball, basketball, hockey, and football tickets in the past. Many times they were given out on a first-come-first-served basis, and they went fast.
Otherwise discounts were seasonal (such as discount coupons on flowers around Valentine's Day) or discounts to local attactions such as the zoo, Six Flags, etc.

we don't get coupons but we do get Supplier Discounts on a lot of things.
Apple, Panasonic, Philips, B&N, GM, Daimler Chrysler, Ford, Nissan, Palm, etc.
I've only used it a few times though. A lot of times if you search on the internet you can find it cheaper.
