Keep reading for the best tips and tricks to shop Nordstrom’s biggest sale of the year and see some of our top picks for this year’s sale…
1. Know when the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is happening.
When is Nordstrom Anniversary Sale happening?
The 2024 Nordstrom Anniversary sale launches to the general public on July 15th. However, Nordstrom gives early access to their Nordy Club members and Nordstrom cardholders starting as early as July 9th!
Every year Nordstrom cardholders get an invitation to start shopping the sale earlier than the public. So if you’re not already a cardholder you’ll want to make sure you apply before the next sale begins.
2. Shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale almost 2 weeks early if you’re a Nordy cardholder.
If you want early access to shop the biggest deals during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, become a Nordy cardholder. Exclusive to cardholders, Nordstrom will be opening its sale almost a week early this year, which means you’ll get first dibs on many of the items that will sell out fast. Sweet!
And they’re giving you $40 in Nordy Cash just for making your first purchase! 😱
Nordstrom is currently offering a $40 Bonus Note when you make your first purchase using your new card on the same day you apply (no minimum required!) If approved, you’ll get to use your Nordy card immediately! 🤩
*Keep in mind that you must be approved for the Nordstrom credit card to receive the Bonus Notes.
Here are the perks of having a Nordy Card during the Anniversary Sale:
-
Start shopping about a week before everyone else. (Read The Thread to find out more about how to shop the sale early.)
- July 9th – Access starts for cardmembers with Icon status
- July 10th – Access starts for cardmembers with Ambassador status
- July 11th – Access starts for cardmembers with Influencer status
-
Score items that sell out during early access and won’t be restocked.
- Earn 2 points (or more) per net dollar depending on your cardholder status every time you shop at Nordstrom, Nordstrom Rack, HauteLook, and Trunk Club. Plus earn 1 point per dollar anywhere Visa Credit Cards are accepted.
- Get Bonus Notes (AKA – free money!) to spend on future purchases when you use your card.
- No annual fee! (Woohoo!)
Already a member?
If you’re already a Nordy Cardholder and you’ve shopped at Nordstrom in the last year, you may also receive a little Bonus Note in the mail before the 2024 event.
You can still shop like everyone else…
There’s no denying that this Nordstrom sale is great no matter how you shop, so if the credit card benefits and the ability to shop early aren’t your thing, then shopping at the Public Sale on July 15th will be your best bet!
Everyone can shop the sale when it opens to the general public in mid-July.
But keep in mind, if there’s a hot item you’ve got your eye on, chances are it’ll sell out early, so don’t say I didn’t warn ya! 😉 Even more notable, sale items return to their original price at the end of the sale, so you won’t want to hold off on your must-have purchases for too long!
3. Stock up on new fall items and save hundreds on luxury brands.
Historically, items hitting the sale rack range from designer denim and luggage savings to first dibs on some of the best workout clothes, shoes, and more – all at deeply discounted prices. This year, there will also be tons of top brands making an Anniversary Sale appearance like UGG, Crocs, Adidas, Vince, Birkenstock, Veronica Beard, and more!
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is also a great time to stock up on back-to-school kids clothes and stuff for the guys, too! 😍 We spotted awesome deals this year where select jackets are nearly 40% OFF!
4. Snag up to 60% OFF amazing-smelling candles and other home decor pieces.
My, oh my, how we LOVE candles and all things home! This year, we’re seeing designer candles from DIPTYQUE and APOTHEKE on sale for 30% OFF or more!
While we have yet to see the famous Capri candles on sale like in previous years, be sure to be ready once the sales officially kick off because the candles are always one of the first items to sell out fast!
Keep an eye out for discounted home decor, both online and in their home section!
5. Score discounts on name-brand cosmetics and exclusive gift sets!
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is also any beauty lover’s dream come true. This year there will be exclusive deals on top beauty brands and gift sets up to 50% OFF!!! 🤩 Makeup and beauty items will sell out quickly, so don’t forget to check this section the moment the sale starts.
Luxury beauty brands often take this opportunity to launch special edition items and makeup kits too. These FLY off of the shelves every year, both in-store and online.
6. Score discounted Nordy’s gift cards and save up to 10% more during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!
There are a few places you can score discounted gift cards to Nordstrom and using these cards at the Nordstrom sale is one way to save even more! Visit sites like CardCash and Raise.com. We’ve spotted CardCash offering Nordstrom gift cards for up to 8.6% OFF just this week! 🤩 How does this work? Just buy a gift card at a discounted price, and then use it toward your in-store or online purchase. Easy peasy!
You can also download the Raise app and purchase a discounted store gift card before the Nordstrom sale 2024 starts. We’ve seen Nordstrom gift cards currently on sale for up to 3% OFF your purchase!
Do NOT wait until the sale to scoop up your discounted gift cards, though. They’ll frequently sell out of all their Nordstrom gift cards as shoppers prep for this sale.
7. Make a list and set a budget before the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale starts.
Make a list and check it twice!
Make a shopping game plan to get the most bang for your buck at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2024. 🙌✅
My advice? Take a peek in your closet and home to decide what you’re missing so you can determine which purchases are must-haves. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a great time to invest in staple pieces that you might not buy later at the regular price, but it’s also just as easy to overspend and get a little carried away (I’m speaking from experience here, people 😂).
And set a budget, too.
Just because items are marked 50% off or more doesn’t mean they’re in everyone’s budget (especially if you’re shopping for multiple items during the sale). Set your budget, and then decide what you absolutely can’t live without. Then, gather your willpower and put everything else back on the rack!
8. Don’t hesitate if you really want something.
Historically, the trendiest items that are at the top of most shoppers’ must-have lists WILL sell out and they’ll sell out fast. Almost 100% of the time, these items aren’t restocked during this Nordstrom sale 2024. Though backorders will be allowed during early access – another reason to consider becoming a Nordstrom cardholder is so you can grab your must-have items while they’re still in stock! If something you love is sold out, you can add it to your wishlist.
All that said, there’s nothing worse than envisioning something in your closet or home, only to find that it’s gone for good. This has happened to me multiple times, so don’t hesitate!
