Lululemon Sale Guide: How to Get Leggings for Less in 2026

## The Smart Way to Shop Lululemon in 2026 Lululemon rarely discounts, and when they do, items sell out fast. Knowing their exact deal structure and timing is essential to scoring the leggings, shorts, or jackets you want at below-retail pricing. ### The "We Made Too Much" Section Lululemon's permanent markdown section at lululemon.com/en-us/c/we-made-too-much is the cornerstone of their deal ecosystem. Items here are discounted 25–50% off regular pricing — the only consistently discounted section on the main site. **Pro tips for the WMTM section:** - Check every Sunday — the section refreshes weekly - Filter by your size immediately (popular sizes vanish within hours) - Best time to check: Sunday morning, 6–8 AM Eastern ### In-Store Sales Associates Lululemon store associates have discretion to apply a "hemming allowance" for alterations and sometimes apply educator, healthcare worker, or military discounts (typically 15%) upon request with ID verification. ### Lululemon Like New Lululemon's certified pre-owned program offers gently used Lululemon items at 30–50% below retail. All items are inspected and cleaned by Lululemon directly. ### Seasonal Clearance Events While rare, Lululemon holds clearance events at certain times: - **Post-holiday (late December/January)** — Holiday collections clear at 30–40% off - **End of summer (September)** — Summer styles make room for fall inventory ### Best Items to Target in We Made Too Much 1. **Align Leggings** ($98–$128 retail) — Most popular item, frequently $49–$69 in WMTM 2. **Scuba Hoodie** ($118–$138 retail) — Hits $69–$89 in markdown section 3. **ABC Pants (men)** ($128 retail) — Excellent deal at $69–$79 in WMTM 4. **Define Jacket** ($118 retail) — Frequently $59–$79 in clearance
