The Wayfair Way Day sale typically happens twice a year: May (sometimes late April) and October. You'll see daily deals revealed every 24 hours, plus you'll get free shipping sitewide. Honestly, it's the best Way Day sale you'll find before Wayfair Black Friday.
The next Way Day sale runs April 26 - 28, 2025, with savings up to 80% off.

Wayfair Way Day is a semi-annual, 3-day sale offering best-of-the-year discounts on home furnishings.
Think of it like Wayfair’s answer to Amazon Prime Day. Twice a year, Wayfair offers better-than-Black-Friday discounts across all categories on their website, including deals on furniture, home decor, appliances, lighting, kitchenware, bedding, rugs, and outdoor furniture. In October 2024, the sale ran for an unprecedented five days to overlap with Amazon Prime Big Deal Days. We don't expect to see a Way Day of that length again.
The spring 2025 Way Day sale runs April 26 - 28.
You can always expect Way Day twice a year, and it usually lasts three days. This year's spring sale is about a week earlier than 2024's sale (which started May 4).
Here are some dates from the last several Way Day sales.

What makes Way Day worth shopping?
Way Day is worth shopping, given the size of the discounts (up to 80% off) and the number of deals (products across the entire site are discounted). It's a smart time to shop big-picture stuff like furniture as well as smaller things like lighting fixtures. A wide range of rugs are also discounted. And there's usually a seasonal element to the sale, with the spring sale offering discounts (usually 50% off) on patio furniture, meaning you can save on stuff you need for this season instead of waiting until end-of-season sales.
Is Way Day better than Wayfair's Black Friday Sale?
They're about the same in terms of the highest discount (up to 80% off). We looked at the deals offered during Wayfair's 2024 Black Friday sale and its most recent Way Day sale, and found that they were pretty similar with up to 80% off on rugs and some fixtures and 60% - 70% off a wide range of furniture. However, if you're after patio furniture and outdoor decor, the spring Way Day sale is a better sale to shop because you'll find discounts (usually 50% off) and a much bigger selection than during Black Friday. Meanwhile, in 2024, the Black Friday sale had a slight edge on mattresses (up to 65% off vs. up to 60% off during Way Day).
In short, they're both solid sales and it depends on what you're shopping for.

Way Day 2025 Shopping Secrets: Expert Tips for Better Deals
Get ready for the spring Way Day sale with some easy shopping tips to make the most of the event.
1. Get 24 hours of early access to deals on the Wayfair app.
Wayfair app users typically get a special perk: An early chance to shop Way Day deals the day before the sale starts for everyone not on the app. This is the best way to make sure you get the deals before they’re gone.
2. You’ll get free shipping on practically EVERYTHING during Way Day.
Yes, you heard that right. Wayfair offers free shipping on everything during their Way Day sale.
Of course, there are a few exceptions to the Wayfair free shipping offer; some items do have shipping charges either per item or order amount. But for the most part, you’ll get your Way Day buys delivered for free.
Wayfair normally offers free shipping on orders over $35 during non-sale times.
3. Keep an eye open for thousands of flash sales.
We’ve seen Way Day Flash Deals like TV stands and tables from $85, major appliances from $350, and curtains from $6.45. Wayfair also runs deals on specific brands, like up to 50% off Kohler products and a free $50 gift card when you buy select Bissell products.
4. Create a Wayfair wishlist ahead of time to easily see if your most wanted item is on sale.
If you don’t already have one, create a Wayfair List by signing in to your Wayfair account (it's free) and start adding items. When you come back during Way Day, you’ll see which deals are available on the products you love most.
5. Plan your Way Day strategy by scouting out the best deals early each day before they're gone.
Always check out the Way Day deals early because let’s be real — deals this good won’t last long. Wayfair launches new deals each day during the sale, and if you check them out early, you have a better chance at buying the best ones.
6. Look for deals on Wayfair’s sister sites too: Joss & Main, Birch Lane, and AllModern.
Wayfair owns three other major online furniture and decor brands: Joss & Main, Birch Lane, and AllModern. During the spring Way Day sale, all three stores typically offer up to 50% off sitewide, plus free shipping on everything. In October, we've seen up to 70% off at all three retailers.
7. Know that Wayfair credit card holders get $40 off their first purchase of $250 or more.
The standard Wayfair credit card deal is $40 off qualifying purchases of $250 or more. Benefits include 5% back in rewards on Wayfair purchases and no-interest financing on qualifying orders.
8. Consider joining Wayfair's (paid) rewards program if you plan to spend $580 or more
Wayfair's rewards program costs $29 a year. Members get 5% back in rewards, meaning it would take you $580 in spending to earn back that $29 fee. So if you're planning to buy big-ticket items during Way Day and go past that $580 mark, it could be worth signing up for the rewards program (especially if you plan to shop Wayfair after the sale, like during the next Way Day in the fall or during Black Friday).
9. Prepare for Way Day 2025 with the KCL app.
You don't have to remember that Way Day starts April 26, because we can remind you. Get our free Krazy Coupon Lady app and hit the calendar icon to set up notifications for Way Day. We'll send a push notification to your phone when the sale goes live.
