1. How to shop the Wayfair Way Day sale?

Wayfair's Way Day sale on Wayfair website.

Forget Black Friday sales when you’ve got Wayfair’s Way Day deals for two days, April 28-29, 2021. In addition to Flash Deals, they have some pretty sweet savings throughout the store:

  • Up to 80% off on rugs and wall art
  • Up to 70% off bedding
  • Up to 65% off outdoor furniture and mattresses
  • Up to 60% off kids’ furniture and kitchen and pet essentials

Although every sale is timed, Flash Deals only last through April 28 at midnight ET. To shop a deal simply click on a category and place items in your cart. Wayfair is offering free shipping sitewide during the Way Day sale, but some exclusions do apply such as flooring, large fixtures, and non-standard items.

If you’re new to Wayfair, enter your email address to get a 10% off purchase promo code that you can use on sale items. If you already have an account, use a different email account to claim this one-time coupon.

 

2. How to shop the Overstock 48 Hour Flash Sale?

Overstock's Flash Sale on the Overstock website.

Overstock’s 48 Hour Flash Sale is pretty similar to Wayfair’s WayDay, which is not a coincidence, as they are each other’s biggest competitors. In addition to discounts, watch out for flash coupons that randomly appear on the sale’s webpage. I got an extra 12% off coupon.

Activate your coupon by clicking on it, and Overstock will automatically choose either a sale price or coupon for the best savings on any item. The one thing I noticed is Overstock doesn’t have a 24-hour limit on Flash sale items like Wayfair does. Prices are good for the whole 48 hours. Here’s what kind of savings to expect:

  • Up to 70% off rugs
  • Coffee and end tables from $49
  • Outdoor seating under $499
  • Sheets and pillowcases from $19

Like with Wayfair’s sale, you click on a category and select your items. Shipping is free.

6. Overstock takes the win on industrial bookcases.

Be sure to calculate any coupon savings in your final price. Remember, Overstock automatically chooses either a sale price or coupon for the best savings. An industrial bookcase I found had better savings with my 12% off coupon that beat Wayfair’s sale price AND 10% off coupon combo.
