there's a shopping site that says 定価より ¥319 おトク!  meaning "¥319 cheaper than list price" or "save ¥319 from list price"

here's another, a bit nonsensical example where the glosses don't really fit:
「なんでグラスが2つあるのよ。用意が周到過ぎない?」
「そ、それは‥‥私が両手にグラスをもって飲むためよ。」
「なによ、それ。」
「そうすると、何度もお酒をつぐ手間が省けるじゃない。2倍お得よね。」

As a matter of policy I like to cover as many forms as is reasonable, as a lot of apps/systems/etc. are doing searches based on the glosses.
I should have applied the "can it be the subject of a sentence" test to 'good value'. Of course, you can actually say "Good value is one criterion I apply when choosing a restaurant." That test was often invoked by Bart Matthais on the SLJ group - if you can't say "XXが..." it isn't a noun. I note that many terms in 大辞林 which are marked as "名" fail that test.

Sorry to make such a fuss over a hyphen. :-) I didn't think think that having a hyphen was 
necessarily wrong. I just felt that it was preferable to have the two-word spelling if only 
one spelling was to be included. It seems that Webster often gives only one of the correct 
spellings for adjectives that are spelled two ways.
e.g. Webster has only "up-to-date", whereas the Chicago Manual of Style says:
.
* Adjectival phrases: Hyphenated before a noun; usually open after a noun
- an up-to-date solution
- his equipment was up to date
.
... whereas Wiktionary does include two spellings, as you have done for this entry (お得):
up-to-date
up to date (after the noun)
