How Granny Goose sales really work

Granny Goose is one of the South African retailers we track for genuine markdowns. Like most stores it discounts often, so a sale badge by itself is not much of a signal. What tells you whether a price is actually good is how it compares to what the item has cost before.

That is the gap we fill. For every Granny Goose deal we keep the lowest and the usual price we have recorded, and we flag any advertised was-price that sits above anything we have genuinely seen, so the headline percentage does not get to decide for you.

  • Judge each deal against the recorded low and usual price, not the was-price on the badge.
  • A price with no history behind it yet cannot be verified, so give it time or compare a similar tracked item.
  • Deeper, more honest cuts tend to land when a range is being cleared rather than at the first markdown.

Questions people ask

Does Granny Goose have genuine sales, or is the discount off an inflated price?

It varies by item, and the gap can be wide. Across the 2 Granny Goose deals we have tracked long enough to judge, the typical badge is 72% off, but measured against the price the item actually holds, the median real saving is R501 (39%). The rest of that percentage is calculated off a was-price we have not seen the item reach. We show both numbers on every deal so the badge does not do the deciding.

How many Granny Goose deals is SaleDrop tracking right now?

We are tracking 2 Granny Goose deals at 50% or more off, priced from R799 to R1,899, up to 72% off. Of those, 2 have enough recorded history for us to judge the saving, and 0 are at the lowest price we have on record.

How do I know if a Granny Goose deal is actually a good price?

Ignore the percentage badge and look at two figures we record: the lowest price we have ever seen the item at, and the price it usually holds. If the current price is at or near that recorded low and clearly below the usual price, the saving is real. Our method is on the how-we-verify page.

How SaleDrop works

  1. We track the price. Day after day, we record what each item actually sells for at the shop.
  2. We check the discount. A was-price only counts if the item really held that price while we watched.
  3. You buy with proof. Green means the saving is real against the price it usually holds. You buy at the shop, not from us.
