How to Identify Real Deals
Not all "deals" represent real savings. Follow these guidelines:
Signs of a Genuine Deal
- The previous price is clearly marked
- The discount is at least 15%
- The product has a good expiration date
- It's a product you really need
Warning Signs
- It only says "Deal" without showing previous price
- The "discount" is less than 10%
- The product is near expiration without significant discount
- It's something you hadn't planned to buy
Strategies to Combine Deals
Plan Your Shopping Route
Instead of buying everything at one supermarket:
- Check deals at each store before leaving
- Group products by store with best price
- Calculate if it's worth the extra trip
Practical Example

- Fruits at La Colonia (Wednesday): Saved L. 150
