The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of misleading discount campaigns on consumers' perceptions of deception and satisfaction. In addition, it is aimed to analyze the reflections of perceived deception on consumer satisfaction in the research. The research population consists of the customers of the ten most popular Turkish ready-made clothing brands, according to Marketing Turkey data in 2021. A purposive sampling method was used in the research, and the data were obtained from 356 participants through face-to-face questionnaires. The obtained data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (AMOS 24.0). Analysis results show that misleading discount campaigns affect consumers' perceptions of being deceived at a high level. In addition, it has been determined that discount campaigns perceived as misleading by consumers negatively affect consumer satisfaction. Moreover, it has been revealed that perceived deception partially mediates the effect of misleading discount campaigns on consumer satisfaction and has a negative impact on consumer satisfaction.
