Stacking Tips
Combine multiple discount types in a single transaction. These are the most effective stacking combinations at Wayfair.
The Way Day Portal Stack
Way Day is Wayfair's deepest discount event of the year. Maximize it by clicking through a cashback portal like Rakuten before landing on Wayfair — Rakuten regularly elevates its Wayfair cashback rate during Way Day to 5–10%. Pay with the Wayfair Mastercard for an additional 5% back in rewards. On a $1,000 sofa already discounted 50% to $500, a 7% portal rate plus 5% card rewards adds another $60 back — making your effective cost closer to $440.
The Open Box + Portal Stack
Wayfair's Open Box section already prices items 20–60% below retail. Layer in a cashback portal and your rewards card for additional percentage savings. Open Box items are eligible for cashback tracking just like standard items — click through the portal before navigating to the Open Box page. This stack works best on high-ticket furniture items where even a 3–5% cashback represents $30–$80 in real savings.
The App Exclusive + Card Stack
Wayfair regularly offers app-only pricing that isn't visible on the desktop site. Download the Wayfair app, enable notifications, and check it before any purchase — many daily sale items carry an additional 5–15% discount in-app vs. desktop. Pay with the Wayfair Mastercard to stack the 5% rewards on top. For large purchases, the combined savings can easily exceed $100.
The Clearance + Email Coupon Stack
Wayfair periodically sends subscriber-exclusive coupon codes (typically 5–10% off) to email list members. These codes are occasionally valid on already-discounted clearance items. Subscribe to Wayfair emails, create a wishlist of clearance items you're watching, and apply the next coupon code you receive. Note: coupon code eligibility on clearance varies — always test at checkout before assuming stackability.
Price Match Policy
Wayfair's price match guarantee lets you claim a lower price from qualifying competitors — both at the time of purchase and up to 14 days after. Knowing the rules can save you from overpaying on big-ticket items.
No Formal Price Match Policy
Wayfair does not offer a competitor price match guarantee. There is no program to match pricing from Amazon, IKEA, Pottery Barn, or other furniture retailers.
Frequent Dynamic Price Drops
Wayfair's pricing adjusts frequently based on supplier costs, inventory levels, and competitor activity. Items that appear overpriced today may drop 10–20% within days — use a price tracker like Honey or CamelCamelCamel alternatives to monitor Wayfair prices.
No Post-Purchase Price Adjustment
Wayfair does not offer post-purchase price adjustments. If an item drops in price after your order, your only recourse is to cancel (if unshipped), return, and repurchase — subject to the 30-day return window and return shipping cost.
Qualifying Competitors
Exclusions
- No competitor price matching of any kind
- No post-purchase price adjustments for Wayfair's own price drops
- No price matching between Wayfair's own storefronts (Joss & Main, AllModern, etc.)
Clearance & Markdown Schedule
Wayfair follows a predictable markdown cadence that savvy shoppers can use to time purchases. Understanding how clearance works lets you decide whether to buy now or wait for a deeper cut.
Markdown Progression
Initial Clearance Listing
Wayfair adds items to clearance continuously as suppliers discontinue SKUs or seasonal inventory ages out. First-wave clearance items appear at 20–30% off and often still have decent selection and size availability.
Secondary Markdown
Items that remain unsold after 4–8 weeks in clearance receive a deeper reduction. This window offers the best balance of price and availability — particularly for furniture where specific dimensions matter.
Final Clearance
End-of-lifecycle pricing on items Wayfair is fully exiting. Open Box items processed from returns often enter inventory at this depth. Sells fast — these listings rarely last more than 24–48 hours.
Department Schedule
Outdoor Furniture & Patio
August–SeptemberPost-summer clearance on patio sets, outdoor dining, and loungers — best prices of the year as Wayfair exits the season
Holiday & Seasonal Décor
December 26 – JanuaryHoliday décor, artificial trees, and winter accent pieces hit 40–70% off immediately after Christmas
Bedding & Bath
January – FebruaryJanuary White Sale is Wayfair's deepest annual event for bedding, duvet sets, towels, and mattress accessories
Way Day Overage
Late April – MayUnsold Way Day inventory receives a secondary clearance markdown in the week following the event — check clearance immediately after Way Day ends
Tag Color Guide
