What is the Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale?
Twice a year, Bath & Body Works has its popular semi-annual sale—one starts right after Christmas, and the second kicks off during the summer months. During the sales, you can stock up and save up to 75% on select items, including wallflowers, hand soaps, aromatherapy, body lotions and 3-wick candles.
The summer sale usually spans most of June (the 2024 summer sale ran June 1 to July 1). The winter Bath & Body Works semi-annual sale historically starts right after Christmas and runs until mid-January every year (Dec. 26 – Jan. 17 for the most recent sale). That gives shoppers several weeks to snag deals while they last.
Past highlights have included:
- Select 3-wick candles for $10.
- Select Wallflowers fragrance refills for $3.50.
- 50% off select hand soaps.
- 50% off select hand sanitizers.
- Select body care for as low as $3.95.

How Long Is the Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale?
The winter sale typically runs about three weeks, and the summer sale typically runs almost a month. So this is a rather long sale. However, expect popular items to sell out — and expect flash sales and promotions throughout the sale that last just a day at a time.
What Can You Expect During the Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale?
The sale happens both in-store and online. In the past, the sale has been in-store-only, but for several years running, it’s been online and in stores. Shoppers can expect new deals and specials every day, but because these goodies fly off shelves and sell out online pretty fast, don’t wait! Plus, selection may vary between stores and online.
Generally, you can expect to get 75% off your most-coveted products for a limited time during the sale. On top of these additional great sale prices, you can sometimes apply Bath & Body Works coupons and promo codes to save additional dollars and stock up until the next sale.
P.S. Be sure to sign up for emails to get the best deals sent straight to your inbox.
Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale In-Store Coupons
Deals may vary by store, and that’s what makes this a fun sale. Often, though, you’ll get the same deals you can get online. However, if the online deal requires a promo code, you’ll generally need to show the email with the deal that you received if you’re shopping in a store. So make sure you’re signed up for Bath & Body Works emails!
