“MacMagic helps clean up caches, remove clutter, and access hidden system tools to keep your Mac running smoothly, now on sale for $25.50 (reg. $99.99), with code SAVE15.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim includes specific pricing and promotional details ('$25.50 (reg. $99.99), with code SAVE15') which are commercial details and not independently corroborated by the general web search results. However, the core function (cleaning caches, accessing hidden tools) is mentioned across multiple web search results, but the specific sales pitch is not. Since the claim is a mix of function and specific sales data, and the sales data is unverified, the verdict is single_source based on the promotional nature, while acknowledging the functional aspects are mentioned.
