See every sale that matters for each category.
Is the discount real, and what will you pay after the bank offer?
Compare the sale price with the MRP and with what the item usually sells for. The usual price is the one that matters.

A small real saving
The MRP cut looks far bigger than the real saving. That is a common sign of an inflated MRP.
Work out what you really pay after a coupon, a capped bank discount, cashback, exchange and EMI fees.
Stores apply offers in their own order and terms change per sale; check the offer details at checkout.
