The Bath and Body Works sale schedule holds so much opportunity for savings. You should literally laugh in the face of a full-price item (unless you have a Bath & Body Works Rewards voucher to get it for free). Because not only are there lots of sales, but also pretty strategic ways to hack them to save the most money possible.
KCL has been tracking Bath and Body Works sales dates for the last four years, so you never have to wonder how much time you have left for the deals. But just as important, we know which products are at their best prices during each event.
Keep in mind that Bath & Body Works hasn’t officially confirmed all of their 2024 sale dates yet, but we’ve made (extremely educated) predictions based on all the historical data we’ve collected.

Winter Semi-Annual Sale
The Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale in winter historically starts the day after Christmas and lasts for 22 days. Even though it’s shorter than the summer Semi-Annual Sale, KCL generally considers it the better of the two. Why? Because the winter sale is FULL of deeply discounted seasonal scents from fall and winter (and those tend to be the best).
It’s usually better to shop the Semi-Annual Sale in stores because you won’t get less than 75% off. Online, the sale is 50% – 75% off, and it’s always a struggle to find Bath & Body Works free shipping.
Start & End Dates: We expect the next Winter Semi-Annual Sale will star on Monday, Dec. 26, 2024, and end on Jan. 17, 2025.
Savings: During the Winter Semi-Annual sale your goal is to save 50 - 75% off. That means paying $1.98 for seasonal hand soaps, less than $1 for PocketBacs, and even getting select 3-wick candles for $6.64.
Historical Sale Dates:
2023: Dec. 26 - Jan. 17
2022: Dec. 26 – Jan. 17
2021: Dec. 26 – Jan. 17
2020: Dec. 26 – Jan. 17
Summer Semi-Annual Sale
For the summer 2024 Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale, we expect it to start on June 8. Then, as these summer sales typically go, we think it will end on July 7. It usually lasts about one week longer than the winter sale, but you can get the same kind of discounts — 75% off seasonal scents.
Online prices tend to get better toward the end of the sale, and you can expect a free shipping code over the Fourth of July weekend. Because of that it's generally the best time to shop the sale online.
Start & End Dates: The Summer Semi-Annual Sale is predicted to start on or around June 8 with a likely end date of July 7.
Savings: Same rules apply here as the Winter Semi-Annual Sale. You really want to score those 75% off deals on things like Wallflower refills, hand soaps, and candles. However there's also Bath & Body Works laundry detergent where seasonal scents will hit $9.95 — so 50% off, which is a good deal.
Historical Sale Dates:
2023: June 3 - July 10
2022: June 11 – July 11
2021: June 14 – July 12
Black Friday Sale
The Bath & Body Works Black Friday Sale is the same every year — the whole store is “buy 3, get 3 free.” It usually starts on the Monday before Thanksgiving and ends on Black Friday. Look out for a stackable Bath & Body Works coupon to drop during the sale, and use it to save more on the Black Friday BOGO offers.
Start & End Dates: The Bath & Body Works sales schedule for Black Friday will likely start on Monday, Nov. 25, and end on Friday, Nov. 29, 2024.
Savings: Bath & Body Works Black Friday is when you want to pick up those items that tend to only go 40% off at most, like candle holders and hand soap dispensers. That's because during the B3G3 portion of Black Friday, it applies to the entire store. So if you buy three pieces of "hardware," like those candle holders and whatnot, you get three free. This offers 50% savings if you choose items that are priced the same.
Historical Sale Dates:
2023: Nov. 20 - 24
2022: Nov. 21 – 25
2021: Nov. 22 – 26
Cyber Monday Sale
The Bath & Body Works Cyber Monday Sale starts the Monday after Thanksgiving (aka Cyber Monday) and ends the next day. Cyber Monday is another sale that Bath & Body Works makes the same every year — 40% off their entire site.
Normally, you’ll pay $6.99 for shipping on orders of $10 or more — but not on Cyber Monday. During their last Cyber Monday Sale, Bath & Body Works offered a promo code for free shipping on orders over $50.
Start & End Dates: The Bath & Body Works Cyber Monday sale starts on Monday, Dec. 3, and will likely end on Tuesday, Dec. 4, 2024.
Savings: Bath & Body Works offers that free shipping code on orders $50+, in conjunction with 40% off the entire store. This is another good time to buy BBW laundry detergent for $11.97 a pop (only select stores carry the laundry collection so free shipping is a coup).
Historical Sale Dates:
2023: Nov. 27 - 28
2022: Nov. 28 – 29
2021: Nov. 29 (one day only)
Candle Day Sale
Typically the Bath & Body Works Candle Day Sale starts on the first Friday of December and ends the next day. For two days only, 3-wick candles get their biggest price drop of the year to $9.95. That discount is better than Black Friday (though we do see some seasonal 3-wicks drop to $6.64 during the Semi-Annual Sales).
During the last Candle Day Sale, Bath & Body Works dropped prices on over 150 candle scents, including 39 exclusive scents just for Candle Day.
Start & End Dates: The Bath & Body Works Candle Day Sale will likely start on Friday, Dec. 6, and end on Saturday, Dec. 7, 2024. There is potential for an in-store only third day of the sale on Sunday, Dec. 8 depending on how long inventory lasts.
Savings: We cannot stress enough how important this day is for replenishing your candle supply. Yes, you'll see a few seasonal scents under $7 during the Semi-Annual Sale, but Candle Day is when all 3-wicks are $9.95. So you don't have to sacrifice on the scents you want.
Historical Sale Dates:
2023: Dec. 1 – 2
2022: Dec. 2 – 3
2021: Dec. 3 – 4
Body Care Day Sale
The Bath & Body Works Body Care Day always happens in December and usually starts just a week after Candle Day. The sale only lasts for two days, so it will end the day after it starts.
For the last Body Care Day, all body care at Bath & Body Works was just $4.95.
Start & End Dates: The Bath & Body Works Body Care Day will likely start on Friday, Dec. 13, and end on Saturday, Dec. 14, 2024.
Savings: There's little more to say than you can get $4.95 body washes and lotions on every scent in the store and online. If you happen to have any Bath & Body Works mailer coupons, use those in-store if there are dollar-off or percentage-off coupons that can be applied.
Historical Sale Dates:
2023: Dec. 8 - 9
2022: Dec. 9 – 10
Honorable Mention Sales
Above we've listed the biggies — the truly can't miss events of the Bath and Body Works sale schedule. But there are some newer players to the game that started just last year in 2023. And we'd be remiss if we didn't mention these sales as well.
Back-to-School Sale
Again, this was new to the schedule last year so it will be a bit harder to predict Bath and Body Works sale dates for the Back-to-School event. In 2023 it ran for 13 days from July 11 through July 23, with rotating deals for each day.
Start & End Dates: If BBW sticks to the same timing, we predict the Bath & Body Works Back-to-School Sale will start Tuesday, July 9, right after the Semi-Annual Sale clears out. Then it's expected to end on July 21.
Savings: The first day of the 2023 event started with 40% off storewide. During the final days of the sale there was select body care marked down to $3 as well as $2 hand creams and $1.95 Car Fragrance Refills.
Member Appreciation Days
If you're a Bath & Body Works Rewards member, then Member Appreciation Days is your time to shine. It's a seven-day event which includes a lot of member-only exclusives. In 2023 there were Gingham Sleepwear sets that sold out within a day. And $10 off $30 purchase coupons and free shipping promos on BathandBodyWorks.com.
Start & End Dates: This is another sale where we only have one year's worth of dates to base our predictions on. However, we expect this to return from Aug. 19 - 25, 2024.
Savings: Expect to see 2/$30 Bath & Body Works laundry detergent. But beware — that's only around a 25% discount. However, if you can stack a $10 off $30 coupon on top of that deal, now we're talking. That would break each bottle down to $10 — closer to a 50% discount.
