    Lululemon is a popular athleticwear brand that has dominated the apparel space. They curate quality and stylish clothing, shoes, and accessories.

    But these trendy pieces can come with a hefty price tag. That leaves many consumers wondering, “Where can I find cheap Lululemon?”

    That is why I have put together this list of the top 10 places where you can find discounted Lululemon. There is a mixture of online and in-person places, along with new and pre-loved options to suit every need.

    So in this post, we’ll go over the best places and strategies to find Lululemon items to fit every budget. Let’s get started!

    Jump to:
    • Poshmark
    • Plato’s Closet
    • Mercari
    • Depop
    • eBay
    • Facebook Marketplace
    • thredUP
    • Lululemon We Made Too Much
    • Lululemon Like New
    • Lululemon Outlet

    Poshmark

    Poshmark is a secondhand online marketplace where individual sellers can list new and pre-loved items. Buyers can then shop around, find items they like, and make an offer or buy it outright.

    Lululemon is one of the top selling brands on Poshmark, so as you can see, there is plenty to go around! Plus, you get to shop from the comfort of your home, which makes this one of the best places to find cheap Lululemon.

    You can shop Poshmark either on a web browser or on the mobile app. If you don’t already have a Poshmark account, sign up using my code: ELEVATED_GOODS and you can receive $10 off of your first purchase!

    And if you’ve never shopped on Poshmark before, you are covered by the Posh Protect policy and can return the item and receive a refund if the transaction goes south. However, as both a buyer and seller, I’ve had close to 700 transactions on Poshmark with only about 3 transactions that warranted a refund.

    Plato’s Closet

    Plato’s Closet is another place where you can find deeply discounted Lululemon items. This time, you’ll be shopping in-store.

    If you’re not already familiar, Plato’s Closet is a brick-and-mortar buy-sell-trade store. Plato’s Closet receives its inventory from its customers, paying them a percentage of the sale price.

    As someone who worked at Plato’s Closet for four years, I can confirm that there is a lot of Lululemon coming through those doors! At Plato’s Closet, here are some expected prices for Lululemon items.

    • Tank tops - $10-$30
    • Leggings- $24-$40
    • Shorts- $18-$30
    • Jackets- $30-$50

    Mercari

    Mercari is another online marketplace like Poshmark. It operates in a very similar manner to Poshmark, as individual sellers can list their Lululemon items online.

    On Mercari, you can save searches in order to get notifications for new items posted that match the specific Lululemon item you’re looking for. Just like Poshmark, the item will be shipped to you directly.

    If you’ve never shopped on Mercari, use my code SDHQXP for $10 off of your first order!

    Depop

    On Depop, buyers can also find deeply discounted Lululemon items. Depop has marketed itself as a platform for the younger generation.

    However, it operates very similar to Poshmark and Mercari. Buyers can search for Lululemon items, and many times, find different pieces from what is already on Poshmark and Mercari.

    eBay

    Next, let’s talk about the original online marketplace that started it all. eBay is the largest online marketplace for buying and selling goods.

    Because of that, buyers can find a wide variety of cheap Lululemon items. Some sellers on eBay offer auction-style listings, which differentiates this platform from the others that we discussed earlier.

    Buyers can get into bidding wars and end up scoring what could be some of the most discounted Lululemon possible!

    Facebook Marketplace

    The next place to find cheap Lululemon is on Facebook Marketplace. This platform operates both online and in person. 

    Shoppers can go through local listings and do a porch pick-up or an in-person meet-up with a seller. Be sure to negotiate with the seller to see if you can score an even better price!

    thredUP

    This website advertises itself as an online thrift and consignment store. They strive to make thrifting a modern, positive experience. 

    Many of their items are sent in by individuals. Through this process, thredUP evaluates and lists the items on their marketplace.

    On thredUP, consumers can find tens of thousands of Lululemon items waiting to get shipped to their new homes. Plus, the prices are pretty stellar.

    If you’re new to thredUP, you can sign up today and get $40 off of your first purchase!

    Lululemon We Made Too Much

    Buyers can also go to Lululemon’s website itself. Shoppers want to navigate to the “We Made Too Much” section of the site.

    Each category has this section. Just hover over what you’re looking for, whether that is women’s, men’s, or accessories.

    In the dropdown, you should see the option to select “We Made Too Much.” In this section of the website, you can find brand-new Lululemon items for up to 50% off of the retail price.

    Plus, by shopping Lululemon online, you receive free shipping right to your door. If you’re wanting it sooner, you can also check the in-store availability and pick up your item(s) there.

    The caveat with Lululemon We Made Too Much is that all sales are final. However, if you have a Lululemon item that you already know and love, this shouldn’t be an issue.

    Alternatively, if the item does not work out, you can always sell it to one of the places we discussed earlier, like Poshmark, Mercari, eBay, Facebook Marketplace, or Plato’s Closet.

    Lululemon Like New

    Many have heard of Lululemon’s We Made Too Much section, but have you heard of Lululemon Like New? This new program was launched in April 2022.

    Lululemon Like New is an online resale platform for gently used Lululemon items. It is an initiative to lessen the environmental impact, attempting to keep clothing out of landfills.

    Items are received from customers who trade in their Lululemon items for a gift card. Trade-ins can only be done in person.

    Items Lululemon Like New Accepts

    • Shorts, skirts, men’s shirts - $5 credit
    • Hoodies, sweatshirts, sweaters, pants, crops, leggings, dresses - $10 credit
    • Backpacks, duffels, totes - $10 credit
    • Outerwear - $25 credit

    Items Lululemon Like New Does Not Accept

    • Damaged items
    • Women’s shirts
    • Footwear 
    • Tank tops (any gender)
    • Intimates (sports bras, underwear, swimsuits)

    Lululemon Outlet

    Another place you can buy cheap Lululemon in person is at the Lululemon outlet. Outlet stores, although few, carry Lululemon items that are deeply discounted.

    This way, you can shop in person, try on items, and walk away knowing you found the perfect pieces. To find an outlet near you, perform a Google search or look at the registry for your nearest outlet mall.

    And with that, we’ve gone over the top 10 places to buy cheap Lululemon items. Buyers can find new and pre-loved Lululemon clothing, shoes, and accessories for a fraction of the retail price.

    What’s your favorite place to find discounted Lululemon?
