Question
A Jewish camp normally offers a price of $2000 per child per half or $3500 for the whole summer. Normally by the end of March, the camp fills us completely, but this year it is only 65% full. To achieve max capacity the camp offers a discount of $1800 per half or $3150 for the whole summer. Is it permitted to do this?
Answer
ื‘"ื” Shalom What I understand is that you are merely offering a discount price. According to the Shulchan Aruch, (ื—ื•ืฉืŸ ืžืฉืคื˜ ื”ืœื›ื•ืช ืื•ื ืื” ื•ืžืงื— ื˜ืขื•ืช ืกื™ืžืŸ ืจื›ื— ืกืขื™ืฃ ื™ื—) one may offer incentives or discounts so that clients buy from him or in your case sign up for camp. All the best
