What the latest sample says
Across 855 deals recorded in the past 30 days, the median readable markdown was 43%. Home & Furniture produced the largest category share, while Amazon was the most common retailer we could verify confidently.
PriceGlitch has recorded 2,675 deals and published 115 blog posts in the database to date. These figures describe the PriceGlitch sample, not the entire online retail market.
Deal volume over the last 14 days
Each bar shows how many deal records entered the PriceGlitch dataset that day. A zero can reflect a quiet feed or an interrupted source sync; it should not be read as proof that no discounts existed online.
Visible discount distribution
Only records with a readable percentage-off signal are included in this distribution (n=850).
Most common categories
Verified retailer signals
This chart deliberately excludes ambiguous labels. Product names, affiliate redirect domains, and unknown marketplace destinations are not counted as retailers. 429 records in the 30-day sample lacked a retailer signal strong enough to publish here.
Methodology and limitations
Deal records collected by PriceGlitch from current r/priceglitch activity and the site's deal synchronization process.
Percentage-off values are parsed from visible deal titles and stored pricing signals. Records without a readable percentage remain in volume counts but not discount statistics.
Retailers are reported only when a known retailer can be identified from a direct source URL or a normalized retailer label. Ambiguous affiliate redirects are excluded.
This is a convenience sample of PriceGlitch deal activity. It is not a census of all retailers, sales, orders, or fulfilled price mistakes.

Frequently asked questions
What does the PriceGlitch Deal Trends Report measure?
It measures deal records collected by PriceGlitch, including visible markdowns, category mix, verified retailer signals, and published daily coverage. It does not represent every sale available online.
How often is the dataset updated?
The report recalculates from the PriceGlitch database as new Reddit-sourced deal records arrive. The downloadable CSV contains daily aggregate observations for the most recent 90 days.
Can journalists or researchers cite these statistics?
Yes. Short excerpts and individual statistics may be cited with attribution and a link to this report. Include the access date because the underlying deal feed changes frequently.
