TL;DR
Prices in Antalya shops are listed in Turkish lira, but sellers often convert to foreign currency at unfavorable rates. Sales exist but discounted price tags are rarely visible.
Perfume bottles in Antalya are often sold empty, with filling done on request in-store. Useful if buying as a gift — you can choose the bottle separately.
All prices are in Turkish lira. If you ask for a conversion to another currency, sellers use their own exchange rate, which is usually unfavorable. Better to pay in lira or know the current rate in advance.
The sale season appears to have started, but discounted price tags are rarely visible in stores. Most items are sold at regular prices — don't count on big markdowns and just buy what you like at the standard price.
