Thank you.

oferta
Explanation:
This would be the equivalent of a "special" (offer).
Value packs sometimes contain only one product (turkey ham, for exmaple). It is true, they can also be a combo (oferta combinada?)

Thank you for the explanation. So, a value pack is not necessarily a "pack" with several elements in it.
I will suggest to the customer several options, and see what he says.
Thanks to all of you.

paquete de descuentos


Explanation:
A bit more context is needed, but I think they're refering to a bundle of discounts, coupons, etc.

  -> Thank you, Rick.
agree  Terry Burgess: Or even "ganga".
14 mins
  -> Thank you, Terry.
agree  mgonzalez (X): 'Oferta'.'Ganga' is not a commercial term.It's rather colloquial.
27 mins
  -> I agree with you. However, "ganga" is quite used in the shops in the low-income areas in Argentina.
agree  mónica alfonso: beware of ganga, as many spanglish speakers use it as a translation of 'gang'.

  -> True, Mónica. I can hardly believe some words I hear in Houston (washtería, troca, marketa...), Thank you.

Oferta regalo


Explanation:
It´s just a suggestion, but I think it could fit in your context. I am tired of seeing that expression in magazines and departments store.
Hope it helps.
