door buster
Crowd-drawing discount
A door buster is a heavily discounted item offered during a limited-time sale, typically at store opening on major shopping days like Black Friday.
The term evokes crowds so eager they might break down the doors: The TV was a door buster at $199.
Retailers use door busters to draw shoppers in, hoping they'll buy other items at full price.
