Schnäppchen vs Angebot

offer / deal

An Angebot and a Schnäppchen can both refer to a product or service offered at a specific price. Schnäppchen is a colloquial term and emphasizes a particularly good, significantly reduced price, while Angebot remains more general. For a normal sale price, use Angebot; for a very good deal, Schnäppchen is more appropriate.
