    The word "ganga" means; a steal, bargain or a good deal.

    So something like; Es una absoluta ganga would be one

    "The prices were a steal" is not a correct phrase. "That suit was a steal", or "These appliances are a steal" is correct usage. A price cannot be a steal, only an item for purchase can be a steal. "Steal" in this context means "ridiculously low price", so saying "the prices were a steal" is redundant. As for a spanish phrase, you might try "ganga", which means "Bargain". As in "Este libre es que ganga!".
