Discount

1)

"Cromwell was again returned as member for Cambridge."

When we speak about functions, is it true that we don't have to include a definite or indefinite article before the noun? (Also: He became president of the US.)

2)

"She is glad when she buys clothes at a discount."

"I didn't know that there was a discount on this sweater."

"They decided to discount/put a discount on the jeans just after I bought it."

Are all these sentences concerning 'discount' correct? I'm not sure about the part with 'put a discount on'. I think I must have heard it somewhere.

Thank you so much!
