Retailers Publish A Fraction Of The Corpus
This week's reading shows how far the number of retailers we track falls short of the total offers held, even as discount depth varies sharply by category.
The corpus now holds 76,778 offers from 4,599 retailers. That spread means the average retailer carries well more than a single code, and the gap between how many merchants publish and how many offers exist in total remains the defining shape of the corpus. New arrivals this week, 3,507 offers from 1,350 retailers, add to that base without closing the gap.
Arrivals And Expirations
3,507 offers from 1,350 retailers entered the corpus in this window. 2,913 offers across 597 retailers are due to lapse in the next window. Turnover of this kind keeps the corpus moving rather than sitting still.
How Deep Discounts Run
4,371 offers across 1,739 retailers cut price by half or more this week. That group is a narrow slice of the full corpus, which shows how rare a steep discount still is against the broader offer count. Most shoppers browsing the corpus will not land on a cut this deep.
Category Discount Spread
Entertainment & Media leads the ranking by average percentage off this week, even though it holds one of the smaller shares of the whole corpus among ranked categories. Clothing & Accessories sits far down that same ranking on average discount, yet it carries the largest share of any ranked category, though still well under a tenth of the total. Tech & Electronics and Office & Business land close together in the middle of the ranking, each modest in share but ahead of Automotive, which trails the group on both discount depth and size.
Average percentage off across live percentage offers, categories with at least 200 offers. Measured August 31, 2026.
