Frequently Asked Questions

How is sale price calculated?

Sale Price = Original Price × (1 - Discount% ÷ 100).

How do I calculate savings?

Savings = Original Price - Sale Price.

How do stacked discounts work?

Apply each discount sequentially to the running total, not by simply adding the percentages together.

Is 30% off better than $30 off a $100 item?

For a $100 item, 30% off equals $30 off - they're the same in this case, but the better deal depends on the original price relative to a flat discount.

Does this include sales tax?

No, this calculates the discount only - tax would be calculated separately, typically on the discounted price.

Can discount be more than 100%?

No, a 100% discount means the item is free - discounts beyond that aren't meaningful.

Is this useful for comparing sales?

Yes, comparing actual dollar savings between different percentage discounts on different items is a common use.

Is my data saved?

No, calculations happen entirely in your browser.

Can I calculate the original price from a sale price?

This calculator goes original to sale price - for reverse calculation, divide sale price by (1 - discount as decimal).

Is this tool free?

Yes, completely free with no sign-up required.
