In stores vs. in the app
- STORESLast Pick
Major offline stores pick their own items for bigger discounts, so two stores can have different Last Pick deals. Our tip: if you pass two stores, compare.
- APPCheck prices and stock
Discount rates and stock vary by product; you can check them in the Olive Young app or in store. Olive Young points shoppers to the app notices for the official schedule.
- OUR TIPNo fixed product list
Olive Young hasn't published one deal list for the week, and daily deals change. Look for the deal price on the shelf tag before you pay.
Tax refund at the till
