Is the deal a deal?
One arithmetic check, run on the live specials data, with the corrected offer a coordinator would submit instead.
Illustrative mockup
One check, run on the live deal data: is the bundle's per-unit price lower than the item's current single price? If it isn't, the bundle is a worse offer wearing a deal badge. Pick a deal; the card computes it from the numbers on the page.
Source: lume.com/specials/all discount payload and the Ann Arbor menu, Sep 20, 2026. Single price = the item's current discounted price; bundle unit = bundle price ÷ threshold. Illustrative prototype on public data.
Bundle unit vs. single
| Deal | Internal name | Ends | Example SKU | Single now | Bundle unit | Verdict |
|---|
The same arithmetic across the full Ann Arbor menu finds 509 SKU-bundle pairs where the bundle unit is above the single price and 157 SKUs in two or more bundles. In the Deals Operating System that is check C11 (another promotion already live on the SKU) plus C5 (the ending price computed from the starting one) — both run at submission, before a slide or a shelf card is made.
