  • Shop Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

    With the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale beginning today, today’s post is about the best items to shop for. In the same fashion, I will let you know how to navigate this sale.

    Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Dates

    For many of you, you may have received an Early Access date. With the Early Access date, you can shop before the sale is open to the public. In addition, you can shop in the stores or on-line.

    The Anniversary Early Access date is July 13th and will last until July 20th. The sale opens to the public on July 21st and will last until August 8th.

    How to Shop Early

    So, if you want to shop early, you need to have a Nordstrom credit card.  In the same fashion, the great thing about having a Nordstrom Visa is you get points that earn Nordstrom Notes.

    Since there are many special events throughout the calendar year, you can earn double and triple points. By using your Nordstorm Visa card in the store, on-line, Hautelook and Trunk Club, you earn 2 points per dollar spent.

    If you don’t have a Nordstrom credit card or want one, you will have to wait until the sale opens to the public. Or you can try to shop with someone who has a Nordstrom credit card.

    Navigating the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

    If you’re like me, you have already started planning what items you are going to buy. At the same time, I have already folded back pages in my catalog that I’m on the hunt for.

    So, every year, my friend, Rose and I make a day of this. Because we have already perused the catalog, we have an idea of items we’re on the hunt for. In addition, many items don’t make it into the catalog and can be found only on-line. Also, there are many other items in the store that aren’t in the catalog.

    Since, I cannot resist a great sale, I’m excited to start shopping.

    Conclusion

    To sum up, I’m off to meet Rose for a day of shopping and lunch. I will let you know my favorite items later. At the same time, be on the lookout for my follow-up post that will have the best items for you to shop. Because many items sell out quickly, I recommend shopping early.

    Will you be shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary sale? What are you looking to buy? As always, I welcome your comments.
