Reconstruction: The subject spent twenty-six minutes attempting to reduce a purchase price. No reduction was achieved. One browser extension was installed and removed. One price alert was set, which will notify the subject if the item drops in price, at which point the subject will likely have already forgotten why the alert was set.
The governing rule: any cost avoided through coupon search after choosing counts as a saving, even when the final spend increases to qualify for it.
No saving was found. The item was purchased at the price it was always going to be purchased at. The subject considers this a reasonable outcome and has already moved on.
The price alert remains active.
