Common Mistakes to Avoid

⚠️
Stacked discount misconception

30% off then 20% off ≠ 50% off. 30% off $100 = $70, then 20% off $70 = $56. That's only 44% total — not 50%.

⚠️
Not checking if discount is on original or already-discounted price

Clearance items sometimes have multiple markdowns. Verify whether the stated % is off the original or current price.

Frequently Asked Questions

30% off — how much do I save?
Multiply original price by 0.30. $100 item at 30% off: $100 × 0.30 = $30 savings. Sale price = $70.
How to calculate sale price?
Multiply original price by (1 - discount%). 25% off $80: $80 × 0.75 = $60.
Best time to shop sales?
Black Friday, Cyber Monday, end-of-season clearance (Jan, Jul), and holiday weekends typically offer deepest discounts.
