Good news! The Wayfair Black Friday sale is well underway, with up to 70% preview deals, and over 50% off many other home furnishing categories, including bedroom furniture and living room seating.

Where to start, though? This behemoth of a brand has literally thousands of pieces of furniture to shop, and hundreds of deals to tempt you. One way, is to trust an edit like this one. On this dedicated Wayfair sale page, as Livingetc's Style Editor, I'm going to point you only to the most stylish brands at Wayfair, to highlight the best home deals on any given day and to help you navigate the website's deal pages more easily.

"Wayfair's home furniture and decor sale is likely to offer some of the best discounts on quality buys over the Black Friday period," says Lindsey Davis, Ecommerce Content Director at Livingetc. "Over the seven years I've been working across Black Friday sales, I've watched Wayfair's Daily Sales page closely. They are always competitive, and because it's a trustworthy brand that is known for selling high quality goods, those savings are more valuable still. When it comes to Black Friday, you get the quality, the discount and a much broader selection to choose from. And don't forget if you register for a Wayfair card, you can gain more benefits when you shop."

When Does Wayfair's Black Friday Sale Start?

Wayfair's Black Friday sale started in 2024 on 11th November. Wayfair's Black Friday Preview is currently offering up to 70% off — with other categories listing savings of up to 55%.

Are Wayfair Black Friday Sales Any Good?

"Wayfair Black Friday sales are typically really good," says Lindsey Davis, Ecommerce Content Director for Livingetc. "You can expect to see discounts of up to 70% across all the furniture and home decor categories, and these discounts typically begin around the end of October and beginning of November, and continue throughout the month to Black Friday and beyond.

"On products where prices have been slashed dramatically, I wouldn't necessarily expect greater discounts," continues Lindsey. "My best advice would be to buy anything you've had earmarked that's already at 50 to 70% off, and to watch anything carefully that's had a more conservative price cut. The easiest way to do this is to put it in your basket, ready to pay. That way, you can simply check in every day during the sales to see if the price of the item you want is cut further. Once you get to Cyber Monday, though, you might begin to see stock numbers dwindle on some items, and prices to go back up until the after-Christmas sale, so timing is all important."

Are Wayfair After-Christmas Sales Better than Wayfair Black Friday sales?

"Wayfair after-Christmas sales are really competitive," says Lucy Searle. "However, it's hard to say that they are better than the Black Friday sale because discounts are fairly similar," comments Lucy Searle, Content Director for Audience at Livingetc.

"That said, it depends what you're shopping. IF you are looking for discounts on, let's say, festive decor or anything overtly useful for New Year's Eve, such as glassware, you're likely to find it all more heavily discounted after Christmas than on Black Friday. And if you are just shopping 'dining chairs', you may well get a better discount in January. However, if you are shopping a particular dining chair, sofa, or even glassware, you're likely to find a better offering over Black Friday than post-Christmas when stock across the board will be lower."

What is Way Day?

Way Day is Wayfair’s twice-annual mega sale, happening once in the spring and once in the fall. The spring sale took place from May 4th to 6th this year, and the fall edition started on October 5th and was due to finish on the 7th, but was extended through to the 9th! It saw pieces up to 80% off! A great time to snag an amazing deal.

What are Wayfair's Open Box Deals?

While not a sale event in the traditional sense, Wayfair's Open Box Deals are a great way to score major discounts. These items are like new — simply returned by customers — so their boxes have been opened, but the products themselves are in top condition.

It’s an excellent opportunity to snag great pieces at marked-down prices, but you’ll need to act fast. The deals are one-offs and tend to sell out quickly!

When is Wayfair's Memorial Day Sale?

The next Memorial Day falls on May 26th, 2025. In 2024, Wayfair hosted a 72-Hour Clearout Sale over three days, so it’s smart to keep an eye on the site in the weeks leading up to and after Memorial Day for the best markdowns and discounts.

Can Anyone Access Wayfair Sales?

Wayfair’s sales are open to everyone, as long as you’re able to shop online. Daily Deals are regularly updated outside of sale periods.
