A Second Frozen Day: 1,368 Prices Checked, Not One Moved
Yesterday one price changed. Today not even that. Across all 22 brands, exactly zero movement in 24 hours, and the average discount holds at 41% for a sixth day.
Correction, 23 August 2026
The stock figures in this story were wrong, and the fault was ours. Our scraper only updates what it can see on a brand's collection pages. When an item sells out and drops off those pages, the row is never revisited and stays flagged in stock. By 22 August that had reached 100,103 rows, 46,164 of which had not been seen in over ninety days.
- Discounted items: 61,238 → 33,515
- Average genuine discount: 41% → 38%
- At 50% off or deeper: 22,856 → 9,465
This story's subject is unaffected, it rests on price history. But any stock or discount figure quoted inside it should be read against the correction above.
Anything built on price history, the frozen-price days, the Limelight increases, the new-arrival counts, rests on real recorded data and still stands. How we work.
21 August 2026
Yesterday we reported that a single price moved all day. Today even that did not happen.
Over the past 24 hours our tracker checked 1,368 prices across 22 brands. Not one of them changed, nothing fell, nothing rose. Zero.
- Discounted items: 60,912
- Average genuine discount: 41%, a sixth consecutive day
- At 50% off or deeper: 22,650 items
This is no longer coincidence. Six days at an identical figure, and two days without a single price moving, means the brands have finished with this season's pricing. What is set is final.
One thing to be clear about: Khaadi and Sapphire data is 19 and 25 hours old today, their scrapers stopped again. So neither brand carries a specific claim in anything we publish today. We took the same precaution on 18 August, when our own stale data made the market look like it had moved when it had not.
