How to automatically revert prices after a sale on Shopify
3 min read
Starting a sale is the part everyone remembers. Ending it is the part that quietly costs money. A sale that was supposed to run for a weekend but stays live until Wednesday is three extra days of discounts you never planned — straight off your margin.
Why the rollback is the hard part
When you discount a product by hand, you have to remember its original price to put it back. Multiply that across a collection and it's easy to restore the wrong number, or forget a few products entirely. The end of a sale is where manual pricing goes wrong most often.
How automatic revert works
SunDial captures each product's original price before the sale starts. At the scheduled end time it writes those exact prices back — every product, at once, with no input from you. Because the original values were recorded up front, the rollback is precise even for large collections.
- Original prices are captured before the discount is applied.
- At the end time, the captured prices are restored automatically.
- It works the same for one-off and recurring sales.
Never forget to end a sale again. SunDial is free on the Shopify App Store.

Will my prices go back to normal on their own after a sale?
With SunDial, yes. It records each original price before the sale and restores it automatically at the scheduled end time.
What if I have hundreds of products on sale?
The original prices are captured up front, so the rollback restores the exact prior price for every product at the end — no manual tracking.
