The Defender Shield 20% off code at the top of this page is the lead offer, and it is best for you if you want a straightforward percentage saving across regular priced items. The code takes 20% off all products at Defender Shield and cannot be used with any other offer, so it suits single orders of full price items where one discount is enough.
Small orders under $125: if your cart is $60, the 20% off code takes $12 off, leaving $48, so use the 20% off code rather than the $5 first order coupon or the 15% sale code. On a $60 order, 20% off then gives a final price of $48, a saving of $12. The $5 first order code would only save $5, for a final price of $55.
Just over the free shipping threshold: if your cart is $130 and you need free shipping, the free shipping threshold is $125 before any code unless stated otherwise. Use whichever reduces your final total most while keeping you over $125. For example, 20% off a $130 cart takes $26 off to $104, which would drop you below the free shipping threshold and add shipping cost, so in that case you may save more by removing the code and keeping the $130 to get free shipping if shipping would cost more than the extra you pay. Work the numbers for your cart and shipping cost to decide.
Higher spend orders: on a $200 cart, the 20% off code reduces the total by $40 to $160, while the 15% Fall Prime Day sale reduces it by $30 to $170. So for full price items use the 20% code; on a $200 order the 20% code leaves the lower total.
First time customers: if this is your first order and your cart is very small, the $5 off first order code can be best. For a $20 purchase, $5 off leaves $15, which is a bigger percentage saving than 20% in absolute dollars (20% of $20 is $4). Use the $5 first order code for low value first orders.
Buying sale items: sale items are already reduced by up to 62% and no code is required. If a sale price is lower than any price you can reach with a code, buy the sale item. The 20% off code cannot be used in conjunction with any other offers, so you cannot combine it with another promotional reduction when the terms forbid stacking. For sale items, compare the sale final price to what a code would give on the non sale price; take whatever leaves the lower final total.
