Check it outWhy stacked discounts aren't additive
Two discounts don't simply add up. An extra 20% off an item already 25% off isn't 45% off — the second discount applies to the already-reduced price, giving a 40% effective discount. This calculator handles the stacking so you can see the true final price and savings.
How it’s calculated
Sale price = original × (1 − discount 1) × (1 − discount 2). Stacked discounts multiply, so they total less than their sum.

Worked example
$80 at 25% off, then an extra 20% off, is $48 — a 40% effective discount, not 45%.

Frequently asked questions
Do 25% + 20% equal 45% off?
No — stacked discounts multiply, not add. 25% then 20% off is 40% off overall.
Is tax included?
No — this shows the pre-tax sale price. Add sales tax separately with our sales tax calculator.
How do I find the percent off from two prices?
Subtract the sale price from the original, divide by the original, and multiply by 100.
