As of 11 a.m. ET on Thursday, shoppers were still experiencing difficulties. According to IsItDownRightNow.com, "Lululemon.com is DOWN for everyone." 

Lululemon shoppers were less than pleased to be missing out on the deals. 

"Why don't you guys prepare for the high volume of shoppers on your website?" one shopper commented on Facebook. 

Lululemon did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment. However, the company has been apologizing to shoppers on social media, as well as suggesting that they try to complete the order in another browser or clear the cache. 

"We knew it would be a busy day, and I suppose technology got away from us this time around," Lululemon's account responded on Facebook. "I totally understand that this can be frustrating as someone trying to shop online, and know that we're doing everything we can to rectify the situation as soon as possible. "
