They performed their last show on August 19, 2000 at Market Street Pub in Gainesville, Florida. Members have gone on to form the Dead Weather, the Kills, the Kitchen, the Terror in Tiny Town, Black Cougar Shock Unit, Unitas, the Routineers, the Draft, Laserhead, Stolen Parts, Monikers, Young Ladies, and Blab School.

During its span, Discount released three full-length albums, several EPs, and two B-side compilations.
