Some beauty salons and hotels save 5000 yuan to send 1000 yuan coupons. Is such stored value consumption legal?

Legally speaking, stored value consumption belongs to prepayment consumption and is not prohibited. However, this kind of consumption is often risky. Some consumers blindly store value (advance payment) in order to covet the gifts of consumption rolls. Once the merchant closes down or transfers the store, it is difficult to get the advance payment back. Therefore, this consumption method should be used with caution.
