Prices in Iraq move fast, especially on personal care and beauty staples. For the week of September 15–22, 2026, we checked M Y listings across stores and ranked the products by cross-store price spread. The bigger the spread, the more you can save simply by buying from the lower-priced store instead of the higher one. Every product below is currently listed at two stores, so the gap is a direct two-store comparison. All prices are in Iraqi dinars and can change with stock, offers, and seller updates.
Why this week's list matters: The widest gap is on a small lip product, where the percentage spread is 16.7%. On the body mists and face wash, the gap is 500 IQD per item. On shampoos and sunscreen, the gap is 250 IQD per item. If you bought all ten items at the higher price instead of the lowest price, you would pay about 3,750 IQD more. That is real money you can keep for delivery or for another product.
1. Biggest spread in the whole M Y basket: 
M Y Aloe Vera Lip Balm
Best price: 3,000 IQD. Price range: 3,000 to 3,500 IQD. Spread: 16.7%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 500 IQD.
This is the top item to compare this week. The price gap is small in dinars, but large in percentage, which means one store is charging about 16.7% more for the same product. If you are already buying lip care, this is an easy add-on to check. For dry or sun-exposed lips, a balm with SPF 15 can be useful, but the main point here is price: do not assume both stores are close. Check the tag before you pay.
2. Face wash with a steady 500 IQD gap: 
M Y Foaming Face Wash for Oily and Normal Skin with Aloe Vera
Best price: 10,000 IQD. Price range: 10,000 to 10,500 IQD. Spread: 5.0%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 500 IQD.
For oily and normal skin, a foaming cleanser is a daily-use product, so paying 500 IQD extra each time adds up. The product is listed with aloe vera and tea tree oil, which are common in cleansers for shine and impurities. Compare the final checkout price, not just the shelf price, because delivery can change the value.
3. Body mist with a 500 IQD difference: 
M Y Milky Touch Body Mist
Best price: 10,000 IQD. Price range: 10,000 to 10,500 IQD. Spread: 5.0%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 500 IQD.
Body mists are popular in Iraq because they are light and easy to reapply. This 220ml option has a milky, warm scent profile. At a 500 IQD gap, the lower-priced store is the smarter buy if everything else, like authenticity and delivery, is equal.
4. Another body mist, same 500 IQD saving: 
M Y Magic Moments Body Mist
Best price: 10,000 IQD. Price range: 10,000 to 10,500 IQD. Spread: 5.0%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 500 IQD.
This 220ml mist sits in the same price band as the previous one. If you like musk and sandalwood-style warmth, it is worth checking. But compare both stores first: a 500 IQD difference is enough to matter when you buy more than one.
5. Third body mist with the same gap: 
M Y Golden Rain Body Mist
Best price: 10,000 IQD. Price range: 10,000 to 10,500 IQD. Spread: 5.0%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 500 IQD.
Same 220ml size, same price range, same 5.0% spread. If you are buying several mists as gifts or for daily use, buying each from the lower-priced store can save 500 IQD per bottle. Three mists alone means 1,500 IQD saved.
6. Hair and body care with a smaller but repeated gap: 
M Y Carbon Clean 3 In 1 Shampoo - 400ml
Best price: 6,000 IQD. Price range: 6,000 to 6,250 IQD. Spread: 4.2%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 250 IQD.
This 400ml 3-in-1 formula is for hair, face, and body, and uses activated charcoal. A 250 IQD difference is not huge on one bottle, but shampoos are repeat purchases. If you buy it monthly, comparing stores can save 3,000 IQD over a year.
7. Hair care with a modest gap: 
M Y Shampoo with Fennel Extract
Best price: 6,000 IQD. Price range: 6,000 to 6,250 IQD. Spread: 4.2%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 250 IQD.
This 400ml shampoo is aimed at oily hair care. The 4.2% spread is modest, but it is still a clear reason to check both listings. If one store is out of stock, the other may cost more, so verify availability before making the trip.
8. Another shampoo with the same 250 IQD gap: 
M Y Shampoo with Wheat Extract
Best price: 6,000 IQD. Price range: 6,000 to 6,250 IQD. Spread: 4.2%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 250 IQD.
For dry hair, nourishing shampoos are common in moisturizing routines. The price difference is small, but the pattern is useful: M Y shampoos this week are clustered at 6,000 to 6,250 IQD, so the lower price is usually available somewhere.
9. Hair care with the same price band: 
M Y Shampoo with Moringa Oil
Best price: 6,000 IQD. Price range: 6,000 to 6,250 IQD. Spread: 4.2%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 250 IQD.
This 400ml shampoo is positioned for normal hair and softness. If you are loyal to this line, buy the lower-priced listing when it is in stock. The saving is 250 IQD per bottle, or 3,000 IQD across 12 bottles.
10. Sun care with the smallest spread, still worth comparing: 
M Y Invisible Sunscreen SPF30- 50ml
Best price: 7,750 IQD. Price range: 7,750 to 8,000 IQD. Spread: 3.2%. Available at: 2 stores. Potential saving: 250 IQD.
This 50ml sun protection item with SPF30 is for daily UVA and UVB protection. The spread is the smallest in this week's list, but sunscreen is often bought repeatedly. A 250 IQD difference is small, yet on a multi-buy it adds up.
Smart shopping notes for this week: Check the final price at checkout, including delivery. A 250 IQD or 500 IQD saving can disappear if one store charges much more for delivery. Confirm authenticity and expiry date, especially for sunscreen and skincare. If you are buying several M Y items, group them from the store that has the lowest total basket, not just the lowest price on one item. Prices can change during the week, so recheck before you order. Use price comparison as a habit: the biggest spread this week is on the lip product at 16.7%, but the body mists and face wash give you the most frequent 500 IQD savings.
