In the rule engine, it will be real easy to add new rules as you add new discounts, that make sure you can't apply 2 discounts that are not allowed to be available concurrently.

Well, yes, it's for the WOCommunity Store, so WOWODC tickets, membership and anything else we might sell (books, the USB stick, etc.) in the future. What I wrote in the past is using properties that defines the discount for conference items and using conditions on quantity to find which one to apply. But it's a bit more complex now, because of the membership.
About the rules engine, even if it's overkill, I went to a business analyst course in the last couple of weeks and it would be a good practice to apply what I learned.
