The obstacle in this store
What is in the way
A banner promises “second pair free, discount applied at payment”. In the cart both pairs are charged at full price and no discount is shown anywhere.
How a store fixes it
Show the discount in the cart straight away, with its amount. “We apply it at payment” is a dark pattern.
