The 30-day lowest price checked across the shop before Black Friday
Check every product on sale against its 30-day lowest price, leave fresh products out of the check, and make sure product pages show that price.

Before Black Friday, run the 30-day lowest price check on every product on sale. Use my Omnibus plugin's history if I have one. Leave out the categories [fresh fruit, bakery], which I discount as they near their date. List the products flagged because the regular price went up before the sale or because the history is too short, and tell me what to do about each. If product pages don't show the lowest price, tell me whether SAR can show it.

If SAR is already in your AI app, this is enough:
Run the 30-day lowest price check on everything on sale, without [perishable categories].
What happens
- The AI app finds the categories to leave out. Saving that list is a change you approve, and it can be undone.
- The check compares each sale's old price with the lowest price of the 30 days before the discount (10 days for products sold for less than 30), from your Omnibus plugin or SAR's own price history.
- It flags regular prices raised before the sale, histories too short to judge, and product pages that don't show the lowest price.
- Showing SAR's lowest-price line under sale prices is a change you approve. It is refused while an Omnibus plugin already shows it.

What you get
A sale list checked before the busiest week, with the lowest price shown and perishables kept out. The check helps you; it is not legal advice.
