Sales Prices
Sales Price Display
A sales rule displays the original price of a product in the category pages, product pages, and product blocks in strikethrough, while showing the reduced sales price to side it.
You can set a different color and font size for the sales price from within your Design Editor.
BEFORE you promote a rule make sure to test it!
