calculations are slightly off it's not 80% off, it's like 58.8% off
price less 50% off before tax, less 8% cashback before tax, less 20% off total after tax
so if it was $100 before tax, it would be (100 x 0.5 x 1.13 x 0.8) - (100 x 0.5 x 0.08)

hope this makes sense lol
still a really deal. thanked!

It does not work like that. Say you bought a $100 jacket
50% off makes it $50
10% additional discount makes it $45
You pay $45 using a gift card. The cash you paid for that $45 gift card is 20% off so $36
And you get $3.6 cash as 8% off sales price of $45
So Net amount for you is $36 - $3.6 = $32.4 so the actual discount is around 67% and not 90%
[Tax is not included to keep it simple and Thanks to frugette for explaining it before].

Anyone know how good their winter jackets are?

- http://www.gapcanada.ca/browse/product. ... id=1091901
- http://www.gapcanada.ca/browse/product. ... =870790063

How comparable are they to TNFG3? I just want a coat with a hood.

My current coat is http://www.gapcanada.ca/browse/product. ... =910166013. I can't tell whether the two above are warmer than this?
No I believe that can not be done, in fact I have experienced that once you complete your purchase online, Customer Rep. can not modify your order anyway and will ask you to return the product for refund.

Ok using your example $100 purchase, you paid $80 for the gift card that's already 20% off... stack 50% off code you're already at 70% ... Stack with 10% more the other code you're at 80% and tack on ebates... discount is before taxes which is actually better for you as you'd be paying more taxes on the principle amount

that makes it 67.19% off total after tax

50% off code
10% off code
you get 20% off after total including tax
8% ebates cashback subtotal

you can't just add them all together, BEDMAS - order of operations
like i said, still a good deal, but saying 90% off is misleading

Discounts are multiplicative not additive.

$100 * 0.8 = $80. Then you pay 50% of that = $40. Then you have another 10% code = $36. Then you get eBates at 8% of that, which is what you *paid* to the Gap = $36 - $2.88 = $33.12.

100-33.12 = $66.88 is what you saved. (Not quite the same number as frugette, I'm doing this in my head so who knows).

The 10% code(GAP4YOU) expires at midnight today, so unless you had a stash of 20% GCs from before, you're gonna miss out on that.

close, but you have to consider tax here. because the 20% off gift card, you get 20% off after tax too.

so if you buy something for $100
50% off (100 x 0.5) would make it $50
10% off (50 x 0.8) would make it $45 (subtotal)
add tax 13% (45 x 1.13) = $50.85

now you pay with your gift card at 20% ($50.85 x 0.8) = $40.68
and now you get cashback off subtotal (45 x 0.08) = $3.60

subtract the two values $40.68 - $3.60 = $37.07 is what you pay after discount and taxes
you would have paid $113 after tax, but now you're only paying $37.07 which is 32.08% of the original price after tax, making it 67.19% off

Tax won't affect the percentages. 32.08+67.19 doesn't make 100, either!

Ah, but the *gift card* and *cashback* discounts are additive not multiplicative.

Oh well, close enough either way. I was only going to pick up $50 of cards, I think I'll get $100 now :P
