Answer: inconsistent reasoning; saving $20 is saving $20

Step-by-step explanation: Tony's reasoning would be deemed as being inconsistent because the discount offered on sale of items isn't based on proportion rather it is based on a specified amount. Tony is basing is judgement on percentage rather the specified discount amount on product. Hence, thinking the offer isn't good when buying more expensive product is erroneous as the offer isnt based on proportion and the same specified amount is saved across all items purchased.
