Prompt Recreated prompt

The source did not publish its exact prompt. This one is our reconstruction from what the source describes.

Not sure how to start? Tell me what you're trying to get done and I'll help you turn it into a clear request.

Goal: Find a coupon code that actually works for my order at this store and apply the best one before I pay.

Quick check first: Which store and cart is this for, and is there a minimum saving that makes it worth it?

What I need from you:
- The store's website, with your items already in the cart
- Your login, if the store needs it (you'll sign in yourself)

Rules:
- Look for coupon codes for this store and try them one at a time at checkout.
- Keep going until you find codes that work, then keep the one that saves the most.
- If something is missing or unclear, ask me instead of guessing.
- Don't change the items in the cart or the delivery details.
- Don't place the order. Stop at the final checkout page and hand it back to me.

Output: Which codes you tried, which worked, how much the best one saves, and the cart left ready for me to check out.

If any of this is unclear, tell me what you have and I'll help fill the gaps.

You'll know it worked when: the cart shows a lower total with a working code applied, and you just need to press pay.
