The discount percentage calculator determines what percent off you're getting when an item is on sale. Helps evaluate whether a sale is truly worth it.
Enter the original price and sale price. The calculator shows the dollar discount, percentage off, and your total savings.
This helps you compare sales across different stores, decide if a discount is significant enough to purchase, and avoid being misled by exaggerated "sale" claims.
