Bath & Body Works Sale 2026 Schedule
January
Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale
When is the Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale?
The Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale always happens twice a year: once in the summer and again in the winter. This year, the winter sale kicked off on Dec. 26, 2025 and ran until Jan. 13, 2026.
Last year’s summer Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual sale started on June 16 and ran through July 14, while 2024’s summer sale ran from June 1 through July 1 that year.
The Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale is pretty consistent year after year in terms of timing, so expect the summer 2026 sale to begin in early- to mid-June and then again the day after Christmas (Dec. 26).
What’s on sale during Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale?
This twice-a-year sale offers shoppers the opportunity to save up to 75% on many of the the brand’s beloved products. In the past, RetailMeNot has found steals such as:
- Select 3-Wick Candles for 50% off.
- Select Wallflowers Fragrance Refills and hand soaps for $3.97, or $2.99 during one-day Flash Sales.
- Up to 75% off select Body Care Items.
February
Although Bath & Body Works doesn’t have any major sales in February, that doesn’t mean there aren’t savings opportunities to be had. With holidays like Valentine’s Day and President’s Day on the horizon, you can always expect limited-time and flash sales to be sprinkled throughout February like confetti.
These were some of the biggest promos in February 2026:
- Full-size fragrance mists and creams for just $6
- BOGO 3-wick candles
- 6 for $10 Pocketbac hand sanitizers
- 2 for $20 single-wick candles
March
International markets enjoy some nice sales for International Fragrance Week (around Mar. 21 each year), but the U.S. market doesn’t get to join in on that fun.
However, there are usually some other small sales sprinkled throughout the month. For example in 2026, The Big Event ran from Mar. 6 through Mar. 26, primarily in stores only. All body care was 5 for $35, and all hand soaps were 5 for $25.
There was also sale — both online and in stores — where shoppers could snag 3-wick candles for just $11.95.
April
This month isn’t a major one for sales at Bath & Body Works. Like February, April is another month with limited-time sales on a variety of products. One sale that shoppers have loved in recent years is the Spring Into Clean sale, which centered around soap deals.
Bath & Body Works Spring Cleaning Sale
The Bath & Body Works Spring Into Clean sale launched in the last week of April in 2026. During this time, you could scoop up a variety of deals, including:
- 5 for $28 hand soaps
- 5 for $28 Wallflower fragrance refills
- 2 for $20 single-wick candles
- 6 for $10 Pocketbac hand sanitizers
- 2 for $30 laundry detergent bosters
May
Mother’s Day Gifting Event
Bath & Body Works always wants to help shoppers save on their Mother’s Day gifts. In 2025, the sale offered mix-and-match deals including hand soaps (5 for $27), candles (2 for $20) and room spray (2 for $16). There were also assorted gift sets to make shopping for mom even easier.
But in 2026? Bath & Body Works took it about ten steps further and decided to make everything 40% off (except for the Vera Bradley exclusive tote that’s a been total showstopper this season). From Apr. 30 through May 4, the entire store is 40% off, both in-store and online.
June
Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale
The summer version of the Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale always takes place in June, but the start date has varied a little in recent years. In 2025, the sale started on June 16, a couple of weeks later than usual. But in 2024, it ran from June 1 (or May 31 for rewards members) through June 24 — a timeframe that B&BW had pretty consistently followed every summer prior. For 2026, we suggest shoppers start to be on the lookout for emails and social media announcements from B&BW around the end of May so you don’t miss out on these epic deals!
Here are some of the best Semi-Annual sale deals we’ve seen in past years:
- 3-wick candles for $10.95 and body care items for $3.95
- Hand soaps and Wallflowers refills for as low as $2.99 (and plenty more for less than $4)
- 20% off select in-store sale merch
- An extra 20% off entire online-only purchases
- Buy three, get three full-size body care products
July
Since the Semi-Annual Sale runs through the first days of July, the rest of the month isn’t the best time to find major savings on all Bath & Body Works. You will, however, find a variety of deals on specific products and collections.
National Gingham Week Sale
In 2024, Bath & Body Works celebrated National Gingham Week. During this week, new discounts on products in the Gingham Collection were available each day. At one point, everything in the Gingham Collection was marked down 40% off.
August
In August, you should plan to stock up on products featuring your favorite summery scents. By this time, the fall and holiday collections are available.
Member Appreciation Days Sale
Bath & Body Works hosted its second Member Appreciation Days Sale from Aug. 19 to 25. During this time, you could take $10 off any purchase of $30 or more as well as take advantage of a new deal each day of the sale. Beyond beauty and body products, for a limited time, rewards members could save 20% on a fall candle flight.
‘See ya, Summer’ Sale
Instead of hosting a traditional Labor Day Sale, Bath & Body Works hosts a farewell to summer sale. Last year, it was called the “See ya, Summer!” Sale. You can save up to 50% on a variety of products during this time.
September
Fall Event
To celebrate the first day of fall, Bath & Body Works offered shoppers 40% off everything in stores and online.
October
National Hair Day
In the past, Bath & Body Works has celebrated National Hair Day (Oct. 1) by giving shoppers major savings on all hair care products. Everything from shampoo and conditioner to dry shampoo and hair pomade was put on sale in 2024 for $5.95.
Friends & Family Event
Bath & Body Works Friends & Family event might be a one-day-only sale, but it’s still a good one to shop – especially as you prepare for the upcoming holiday season. The mid-October sale gives shoppers an extra 25% off, and in the past, it also included BOGO on all candles.

No matter which day you choose to shop, however, you will be limited to purchasing 24 candles at the sale rate.
