Codes and offers kept by David Jones, who keeps this guide's deals current.

lululemon's discounts are personal: emailed offers apply through the email's own link, and program discounts show up as a toggle at checkout once you're verified. We don't list them here — this guide covers the programs you can join instead.

1. Joining later doesn't unlock sale returns

   Everything from We Made Too Much is final sale. The member benefit only covers sale items bought on your own account (or received with a gift receipt) after you joined, and they can only be exchanged or returned for a gift card in store.^{[2, 4]}

2. Return labels expire after 14 days

   Once you start an online return, you have 14 days to take the parcel to the post office before the label expires; after that you need to contact lululemon for a new one.^[20]

3. Program discounts don't stack

   The military and first responder 15% can't be combined with other offers, promo codes or coupons, and doesn't apply to Like New, gift cards or phone orders. Sweat Collective doesn't work with other promo codes either, and Like New trade-in e-gift cards can't be used together with these discounts.^{[9, 13, 17]}

4. Expedited shipping isn't refunded

   lululemon's Terms of Sale keep delivery fees and any expedited shipping you paid for out of refunds. If you might send something back, standard shipping costs nothing anyway.^{[2, 6]}

5. Like New buys from individual sellers are final

   There are no returns, exchanges or refunds on them, even for fit. If an item isn't as described, report it within three days of delivery. Military, first responder and Sweat Collective discounts don't apply on Like New.^{[2, 14, 16]}
