How to run a storewide sale on Shopify without editing every product

Plan the sale

Decide which collections are included, how deep the discount goes, and when it starts and ends. Write it down before you touch any prices.

Use compare-at prices

Shopify shows a strikethrough price when a product’s compare-at price is higher than its price. Set both so shoppers can see the saving.

Change prices in bulk, not by hand

Editing products one at a time is slow and easy to get wrong. A bulk tool applies one rule to every product in the sale.

Plan how the sale ends

Keep a record of the original prices so you can restore them in one step when the sale is over.

Recommended tool

For catalogue-wide sale prices with restore, use Bulk Discounts Price Editor (App Store snapshot 3 Nov 2026: free allowance then paid plans from about $12.99/month; scheduling/rollback on Pro). Test on a small collection first.

Checklist before you go live

1. Write the rule: which collections, what %, start/end timezone.
2. Decide compare-at policy for your markets.
3. Pause or document stacking with discount codes.
4. Spot-check mobile and desktop product cards after apply.
5. Calendar the restore.
