Awesome coupon.. but has anyone else noticed how the percentage seems backwards? 50% off at $20 and 30% off for 60 / 100?

Yah, but check out the prices of most of their clothes. 20 bucks doens't go very far at express.

They're trying to lure you into the store. Chances are you're not going to take a trip to one of their stores and spend exactly 20 bucks. They price a lot of their stuff with 19.95/49.95 etc..

2 things.


1. $20 off $60 is 33.33% off, not 30% off.

2. Economically speaking, you should be considering absolute savings. 50% at $20 is still just $10.

It's a fallacy of human thought to believe that $5 off a $6 purchase is "better savings" than a $5 off a $60 purchase. Either way you're saving the same amount.

Easier to think about if you consider purchasing the aggregate basket of the $6 and the $60 good. In this case, it doesn't matter which good has $5 off, either way you are paying $61 for a "basket of goods" worth $66.

Point is $30 off $100 is still more/better savings than $10 off $20, assuming you only use the coupon once..

If you buy more than 2 of some things you'll get a discount. You won't be able to do this with the $10 off
$20 because usually these deals are $45+.
