10,338 PointsTrying to update a class
Hi there, I'm trying to understand updating a class, I'd like to get both items of "onOffer" Class and add a string of "(50% Off)" so will display Apples (50% Off) and Strawberries (50% Off).
I find I usually stick to Ids all the while as I dont understand accessing classes and updating them. So I tried here and am stuck, I created this project Just to learn classes, would be great if someone could help me then I can move forward.
Happy coding, Jason :-)

Treehouse StaffHi jas0n 👋
I just had a look at your code and I think you're very close to the result you're after 🔥
If you log element to the console you'll see that you're adding the 2 strings together perfectly. The thing is though that you're currently storing it in the element variable and you're not doing anything with that combined string after that.
What you'll want to do to make it display to the screen is set the cheaper[0].textContent to be that combined string for example like so:
let element = cheaper[0].textContent + discount;
cheaper[0].textContent = element
