Talking all about the biggest sale of the year the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2018! I’m sharing the things I plan on getting, details about the sale, key dates, and a Giveaway!
SHOP THE POST:
I want to talk to you about the BIGGEST and best sale of the entire year- the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2018! This sale is so amazing for many reasons, but mainly because it’s like Black Friday but in the middle of summer! This is the main sale I save up for and will get the best deals on staple items I need for the year. This sale is both shoppable online and in-store, but I personally love shopping online. I can easily see everything in my cart and check off my wishlist all while staying in my comfy pjs. You can check out the catalog early to get an idea of what will be included in the sale, but this isn’t everything!
What is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale? Why Is It So Great?
First, everything discounted in this sale is NEW and all they are all the current trends for Fall/Winter 2018. So you get a jump start on your Fall and Winter shopping but at a major discount! During most sales, the retailer is trying to get rid of last season items or things that didn’t sell good. But this sale is different. It’s all new merchandise and Nordstrom is giving you access to new items at a discounted price! This sale is such an incredible opportunity to get staple items for yourself or the fam and get major savings!
How Do You Prepare for the Sale?
I have a game plan and a wishlist in each category: clothes such as cardigans, quality denim, activewear, tall boots, booties, handbags, new sneakers, beauty products and makeup. Some brands I always love to shop during the same are AG jeans, Madewell, Vince Camuto, UGG, Free People and Topshop. This sale is great to stock up on staples for the whole family too! So I’ll be getting some cold weather sweatshirts, shirts, work shirts and shoes for Alex. Also, home decor items, baby/toddler products, and fall/winter clothes and shoes for Kennedy. It’s great to create a general list of categories you’ll be shopping in a write down a few staple pieces you know you will need. That way, once the sale is live it won’t be so overwhelming!
When Can I Start Shopping?
If you’re a Nordstrom Card Holder (credit or debit) you can shop the sale before it opens to the public during EARLY ACCESS (starts July 13th)!!! If you aren’t a cold holder, you still have time today and can becoming a card holder is super easy- click here! The Early Access starts this Thursday July 13th, so be ready! I highly recommend becoming a Nordstrom Card holder for several reasons. You get access to the sale merchandise early before it all sells out and before everyone takes all the good sizes. You also get points added up every time you shop. Those points automatically add up and Nordstrom will then mail you a “Note” with a cash amount. You can apply your “Notes” to any order or purchase in store.
FOLLOW ALONG WITH ME!
Once the sale is live at midnight Thursday, I will be waiting up and ready to shop! I will have a blog post up early Thursday morning with all the things I purchased and my picks of the very best of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. To make things a little less overwhelming, I will be doing the hours of searching and picking out all the cutest things I know you’ll love too. So be sure to check back here Thursday and all throughout the sale to see all my posts on everything I recommend! I will also be shopping and trying things on throughout the week, so stay tuned for that as well!
