🏷️ Discount Calculator
Find the final price and savings from a percentage discount.
About this tool
A discount calculator takes an original price and a percentage off, and instantly tells you the final price and how much you're saving — handy while actually shopping.
Once you've got the discounted price, the Sales Tax Calculator can add your local tax rate on top to get the real total you'll pay.
Worked example
A $150 jacket marked 30% off comes down to $105, saving you $45 — enter the numbers once and skip the mental math at checkout.
How to use it
- Enter the original price.
- Enter the discount percentage.
- Press Calculate to see the final price and savings.
Tips
- Stacked discounts (e.g. 20% off, then an extra 10%) aren't the same as adding the percentages — apply them one at a time.
- For a discount plus sales tax, calculate the discount first, then run the result through the Sales Tax Calculator.
- Round the discount percentage down if a store advertises "up to X% off" to estimate the worst case.
FAQ
Does this include tax?
No — this is the discount only. Use the Sales Tax Calculator afterward if you need the taxed total.
How do I calculate two discounts stacked together?
Apply the first discount, then run the resulting price through the calculator again with the second discount.
Can I use this for percentage markup instead?
Not directly — for adding a percentage rather than subtracting one, use the Percentage Calculator's "X% of Y" option and add it yourself.
