You discovered an Interchange feature quite by accident, what you're
doing is essentially the same thing as this:
<http://www.icdevgroup.org/interchange-doc-5.2.0/frames/icprogrammer_7.html>

If you want a sub to be localized to the usertag then you can do
something like this instead:

my $apply_discount = sub {
	...some more code...
}


...
# Call the sub
$apply_discount->();
