We’re giving you the inside scoop on all the savings to expect.
We’ve all spent time staring at a room in our home, thinking of the infinite ways we could redecorate or rearrange it. New bedding injects color into a bland room, bright pots and pans automatically make cooking more fun, and some comfy patio furniture encourages you to spend more time under the sun (or beneath a patio umbrella). All of those home upgrades sound great, but they also cost a lot of money. To do so without the guilt, we’re constantly on the hunt to refresh our living spaces on a budget without sacrificing quality.
If you identify with this scenario, you’ll be happy to hear that Wayfair’s Way Day sale is just around the corner. The event is one of the retailer’s biggest sales of the year, granting us deals and discounts on more than a thousand items in categories that include fancy hybrid mattresses, high-end appliances, trendy home décor, and more.
To set you up for success, we’re divulging all the details we know so far about Way Day 2024.
What is Wayfair’s Way Day Sale?
In 2018, Wayfair launched its blowout sale day, akin to Amazon Prime Day. It was so successful, it’s now an annual event that we look forward to every year. It originally started as a 24-hour sale (hence the name Way Day) but has since been expanded into two days due to its popularity, that way more people could scoop up savings on their favorite products. Wayfair claims that Way Day deals are “better than Black Friday,” thanks to the incredibly low prices in every category and free shipping.
When is Wayfair’s Way Day 2024?
This year, Way Day 2024 will take place May 4 through 6, which is one day longer than last year. There will be some daily deals worthy of your attention as we get closer to the main event, too.
What brands will be included in the sale?
A large chunk of Wayfair’s offerings will be on sale, including everything from tiny decorations to big furniture. In 2023, discounts reached up to 80 percent off regular prices.
Wayfair not your style? Thankfully, it has three sister brands — Joss & Main, AllModern, and Birch Lane — that will also host epic markdowns. This means you are bound to snag pieces that fit your aesthetic.
What are the best deals this Way Day?
While there will be tons of opportunities to save, it’s impossible to sort through the thousands of items that’ll be marked down. Here are some deals you can shop before Way Day officially begins:
- Up to 80 percent off assorted area rugs, like this hand-woven one
- Up to 50 percent mattresses
- Up to 60 percent off décor

It’s on the petite side so it won’t overcrowd your space.

World Menagerie Giacinto Olive Green Rug
Wayfair
If a hand-knotted, organic wool area rug is out of your price range, you’re not alone.

It has all the charm of a vintage rug, but it’s made from easy-to-vacuum, stain-resistant fabric that’ll stand up to years of foot traffic.
