While we’re sad that Christmas is over, there’s always something to look forward to in the days that immediately follow—and that’s the influx of after-holiday sales. Us shopping editors know that this is one of the best times of the year for brands and retailers to get rid of old inventory to make room for new stuff, and Nordstrom’s Half Yearly Sale is the perfect example.
Nordstrom’s Half Yearly Sale happens just twice a year, once in the winter and once in the early summer months. It offers discounts on home items, clothing sales, and even deals on toys. There are a ton of items on sale this year, so I sifted through to find the best deals I know GH readers (and our own staffers!) would love.
Known for being hydrating yet lightweight, this face moisturizer has been around for decades and is still beloved by many. "This is one of the few moisturizers that deeply hydrates my dry skin over time so the visible flaking is gone," GH's beauty director says. This is the larger version, at 6.7 ounces.
Dearfoams was featured on Oprah’s Favorite Things lists for years, and our editors are fans too. These slippers are cozy and supportive, and several of their styles are machine washable, according to the brand. We love these slippers for Valentine’s Day coming up! You can also get them in winter and spring-themed styles at the same discount.
Our parenting editors and their kids love LEGO over here at GH—after all, the brand holds the Good Housekeeping Seal. This kit includes two buildable dresses for Maleficient and Cruella, along with dress stands for each. Many reviewers rave that the finished product looks great for display. Ages 9+
Time and time again, Herschel has proved to be a top brand among GH Institute-tested travel bags and luggage. We love the tropical style on this one, perfect for vacation mode. Along with two top handles, it comes with an adjustable shoulder strap.
Natori is one of our top-tested bra brands, and this bra in particular earned the top spot in both our Lab and consumer tests. It’s a comfortable bra that’s ideal for everyday wear—plus, it holds up in the wash and retains its shape well. The discount varies by size and color, but you can save up to 60% on our favorite bra. Sizes run from 30C to 38DDD.

Several of our staffers are fans of NEST candles because of their luxury aesthetic and quality. It’s not common to find these candles under $20, so this deal is quite a steal! We love that the packaging comes ready for gifting. “My most recent NEST candle smelled absolutely fantastic—like sweet cucumbers and fresh lavender combined. It lasted a long time, too. I’d highly recommend them for anyone who likes lighting candles.”
JBL is popular for its high quality speakers and earbuds; in fact, we’ve tried and recommended a few of their products over the years. The Flip 7 is the newest model of the brand’s portable speaker, known for its waterproof design and powerful-yet-balanced sound.
Bird feeders are a popular gift for all ages, and this smart bird feeder is especially known for its ability to photograph birds in full color at night. It’s also easy to install and can be mounted on a pole, tree, or wall.

The 8-quart version of our favorite dutch oven is actually on sale—and while expensive, our pros think it’s worth the investment. Le Creuset dutch ovens retain heat well, distribute heat evenly, and are easy to clean, thanks to the gorgeous enamel coating.

This bra from Wacoal is another top-tested bra, and our pros specifically love it for large busts. It provides full coverage and uses a mesh lining instead of padding, which in turn helps prevent busts from looking bigger. Online reviewers rave about the comfort and say that it keeps their breasts lifted throughout the day.
