To prevent $0.00 from showing up, surround the discount tag with seti tags
 ex
[seti nodisplay][discount-price][/seti]

this will prevent the $0.00 from showing up on the site.
though, I'm not sure that you'd want *just* the [discount-price] tag 
with out putting it in some sort of products list....
