Focus on the final amount
The price you actually pay matters more than the size or color of the discount badge.
Check recent normal prices when practical
Price history or competing sellers can provide context for a claimed markdown.
Watch bundle arithmetic
A bundle may quote savings against buying every component separately even when you would not buy each component.
Do not create false urgency for yourself
A countdown or limited-time message should not replace your comparison checklist.
