It’s almost
that time of year which means its game time! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is
finally here. I know everyone has already heard enough about the sale, but get
ready for you Instagram feed to be blowing up with it for the next month.
The good
thing is that you won’t be annoyed by it. Why you ask… Because this is the
biggest sale of the year – the one we’ve all been waiting for since last year
sale ended! Remember these items that are on sale are BRAND NEW and discounted
for a limited time only.

WHAT TO DO
BEFORE JULY 13TH
GET A LIST
TOGETHER
The Nordstrom Sale is mostly fall items. Which means you should go through your fall wardrobe and see what items you want to invest in this year. Such as a good pair of jeans, booties, leather jacket, etc. This sale would be the time to buy those items. I remember last year stocking up on plain long sleeve shirts because you can never go wrong with accessorizing a plain T.

SET A BUDGET
We all know we don’t like the word “budget” but they are necessary when shopping this great sale! It’s easy to keep adding and adding items to your cart that you think you need only to realize you have a couple of thousand dollars’ worth of sale items in your cart. I know some people can spend that kind of money which is completely fine, but if you want to play it smart and not overbuy, SET A BUDGET just to be safe!

CREDIT CARD
I know the word “credit card” scares people, but with this card its link straight to your bank account meaning it comes right away instead of paying the bill off monthly. You also get great rewards when you shop with the Nordstrom Card (link). PLUS having one will grant you Early Access on Thursday July 13th for the sale!

NO STRESS
Don’t let this sale stress you out since you keep hearing about it from everyone. It’s a great time to see what new items you can add to your fall collection plus the discount prices!

BUY ONLINE
I recommend purchasing all of your items online, picking them up at the store, or having them shipped to you. Nordstrom offers FREE SHIPPING on all orders, but if you need any of your items for an event you can pay for one day shipping for only $15! Not only is the shipping a good deal but Nordstrom also offers FREE RETURNS. Order everything online and send everything you don’t want back in the same box for FREE! This is a great way to beat the heavy crowds and crazy people. You will also have more luck when trying to find your size online rather than in the store.

SHOP FAST
The items sell out quickly especially the sizes that everyone typically wears. So yes I will be on the computer/phone at midnight adding things to my shopping cart. Don’t overthink it (remember what I said above about FREE RETURNS) go ahead and buy it before it’s gone! Nordstrom will restock a few items but nothing is ever promised.
