Macy's price adjustment (10-day own-price drop)

Does Macy's adjust the price after purchase if it drops? Per Macy's customer-service article on price adjustments (checked November 5, 2026, Asia/Shanghai), if the price of an eligible item drops within 10 days of your order date, you may request a price adjustment for the difference between what you paid and the new advertised Macy's price. Refunds go to your original payment method. Promotional discounts cannot be combined with a price adjustment. Certain merchandise, promotions, clearance, and special purchases may not qualify. Furniture and mattresses use a different 10-day clock (delivery or ship date). Approval is not guaranteed. This page is a checklist guide from Price Drop Checklist; it is not affiliated with Macy's.

Policies change without notice—verify the official price-adjustment article linked below before you act. Last checked: 2026-11-05 (Asia/Shanghai desk review). This guide is about price adjustment, not holiday returns.

Official source (verify yourself): How do I request a Price Adjustment? (Macy's).

The 10-day rule (Verified)

Macy's defines a price adjustment as a refund of the difference between the price you originally paid and a qualifying lower advertised Macy's price. For eligible general merchandise, if that advertised Macy's price drops within 10 days of your order date, you may request the difference. Refunds are issued to your original form of payment.

Verified on macys.com customer service — price adjustment as of 2026-11-05. If Macy's updates the window, cite the live page—do not invent dates the official article does not publish.

Furniture and mattresses — different clock

Furniture and mattress price-adjustment requests use a separate 10-day clock. Macy's says requests must be submitted within 10 days of the delivery date for White Glove, In-Home, or Room of Choice deliveries, or within 10 days of the ship date for warehouse or vendor shipments. Call 1-888-822-6229 (TTY 711), 8 a.m.–10 p.m. ET, and have your salescheck number and item details ready.

Do not apply the general merchandise order-date clock to furniture or mattresses—and do not apply the furniture delivery/ship clock to apparel or beauty.

Promotions and eligibility

Macy's states clearly that promotional discounts cannot be combined with a price adjustment. Eligibility may depend on the original purchase price and promotion involved. Price adjustments are available on eligible purchases when the price is reduced within the applicable timeframe—but certain merchandise, promotional offers, clearance items, and other special purchases may not qualify. That is a qualitative official note; this guide does not invent a SKU exclusion list.

How to request

  • Online purchases: Call 1-800-289-6229 (TTY 711), 8 a.m.–10 p.m. ET. Have your order number and item details ready.
  • In-store purchases: Visit your local Macy's and bring your receipt to help process the request.
  • Furniture / mattresses: Call 1-888-822-6229 (TTY 711) with salescheck number and item details—within the delivery- or ship-date window above.

Before you call or visit: confirm the advertised Macy's price drop is still inside your applicable 10-day window, that you are not trying to stack a promotional discount with the adjustment, and that you are not treating a competitor listing as a Macy's own-price drop. Approval is not guaranteed.

What this is not

Not a general competitor price match: The official adjustment article covers a qualifying lower advertised Macy's price. It does not publish a general Amazon / Best Buy / competitor match promise—do not invent one.

Not holiday returns (ShipBackBy): Price adjustment ≠ return. For 2026 Macy's holiday return timing, see ShipBackBy's Macy's holiday returns guide. Do not put holiday return windows into a price-adjustment answer.

Contrast other stores

Kohl's uses prior two weeks + original dated receipt (with clearance / Kohl's Cares / BOGO exclusions and sole-discretion pause language). Apple uses a dual 14-day own-price frame (Black Friday excluded). Dell, Costco, Home Depot, and Microsoft Store each publish different windows. Best Buy holiday 2026 and Target holiday 2026 use holiday-specific dates. Walmart.com publishes no post-purchase adjustment; Amazon generally does not run a classic published post-purchase adjustment program.

If denied / outside 10 days → return-and-rebuy?

If Macy's declines (outside the applicable 10-day window, promo conflict, clearance/special purchase, or another published reason), ask whether the item is still return-eligible. Return-and-repurchase can be a practical fallback when you still want the item at the lower price—but stockouts, size/color changes, and refund timing can wipe the "savings." Use our return and buy again checklist. We never promise acceptance or a net gain. For Macy's holiday return calendars specifically, see ShipBackBy's Macy's holiday returns guide—do not treat this price-adjustment page as a returns walkthrough.
