  Amazon countered piece tracking by introducing coupons that only apply at checkout. Some products only use coupons for discounting now.

  Just be aware that these prices may not be the true lows.

        It’s often a checkbox in green near the checkout button if the item and can be the most absurd percentages that shift daily and are often better discounts than sale days.

        Add something to your cart, you won’t see the coupon u till you’ve added it. It will have a button to “clip” the coupon thus applying the potential savings.

        It’s scummy

    Yes, and Prime-only discounts, so they cannot easily be scraped.
