How do I extend a discount that's about to expire?

Question

I'm running a time-sensitive promotion that's about to end, but I've noticed high customer engagement and want to strategically extend the discount without losing the sense of urgency or appearing inconsistent. My current campaign is performing well, and I don't want to abruptly cut off momentum, but I also know that randomly extending sales can damage my brand's credibility. I need a systematic approach to extending discounts that maintains customer trust, preserves promotional excitement, and potentially captures additional sales from hesitant buyers.
