Every “sale” tells a story.
This one is 30% fiction.

Shops invent a “reference price”, cross it out, and call the difference a discount. The anchor works on you even when you know the trick. Discount Debunker doesn’t argue with the lie — it puts a marker through it.

The headline’s black bar is live — hover it. That’s the whole product.

This card runs the extension’s actual CSS. The fake percentage, the “you save” claim and the invented old price are inked over — the real price is untouched. Hover a bar to peek; the lie stays one hover away, hidden but never deleted.

What your shop looks like after

A shop page with every fake discount element covered by black redaction bars, real prices untouched
01 · A SHOP, DEBUNKED

Every -34% chip, “You save” claim and crossed-out price — inked over the moment the page loads. The prices you’d actually pay stand alone, unpressured.

Hovering a redacted product card lifts the ink and reveals the fake discount underneath, with an explanatory tooltip
02 · HOVER TO PEEK

The lie is hidden, not deleted. Hover any bar and the ink lifts — -44%, “You save 88.00”, a 199.99 that was never charged — then it closes back over.

03 · THE ENTIRE SETTINGS SURFACE

On everywhere by default. A master switch, a per-site opt-out, and one choice — redact or hide. Nothing else to configure.

Built on three refusals

No data. Not less data — none.

Zero network requests, no backend, no analytics, no cookies — on this site either. Everything runs in your browser; the privacy policy is one paragraph because there’s nothing to disclose.

No lists to maintain.

Works on every shop out of the box, understanding price patterns and marketing cues in ~22 languages — Serbian, German, Japanese, whatever loads. Turn it off per-site if you ever want to.

No charts to interpret.

Price-history tools hand you evidence and leave the anchor on screen. Removing the psychological pressure means removing the anchor — instantly, before you’ve read anything.

Questions

Does it ever touch the real price?

No. Detection is tuned for precision: only elements carrying a reference-price cue, a strikethrough, or a discount badge are redacted. A plain price with none of those is never touched.

Is anything deleted from the page?

Nothing. The ink is a visual layer — hover it and the original text is right there. An optional “Hide entirely” mode removes the lie from view instead, if you prefer a cleaner page.

What data do you collect?

None. The extension makes zero network requests — no telemetry, no analytics, no accounts. Your settings sync through your own Chrome profile like any extension setting. Same on this website: no cookies, no trackers.

Which sites and languages does it work on?

All of them, by default. Detection understands savings cues in roughly 22 languages (Ušteda, MP cena, statt, UVP, au lieu de, antes, старая цена, 参考価格, …) and both European and Anglo price formats. The interface ships in 25 languages.

What if it misses something — or redacts too much?

Detection is best-effort. If a shop slips through, or a real price gets inked, turn it off for that site with one click and report the site — it can be taught.

Shop with the pressure turned off.
