Nordstrom Anniversary Sale | 2021
It’s that time of year again! Time to take advantage of some good deals coming up at Nordstrom!
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the time I shop at Nordstrom the most. I try not to make too many purchases throughout the year there and usually try to wait for this sale.
I understand this sale is frustrating for many, myself included. The problem I’ve seen in the past is that A LOT of things sell out FAST. In addition to this, a lot of influencers buy multiples of items for their giveaways – and these are popular items too, like the Barefoot Dreams blankets. In fact, I was so annoyed by never being able to get that blanket on sale, that I just bought it myself full price! It doesn’t make sense to me that influencers make collages of very popular items, that the general public won’t even be able to put the item in their cart once the sale is open to them!
So, for this year’s sale, I put together a list of things I’m hoping don’t sell out quickly. Yes, I’ve included things like the Barefoot Dreams blankets, just to let you know it is a hot-ticket item. I’ve also included a few things I already have and can 100% vouch for in terms of quality.
The products I tend to stay away from during this sale, are shoes. Shoes are always difficult for me to buy online – I prefer to try them on in-store if I can. While I love a great deal on a pair of shoes, unless I’m dying to have them, I won’t make the purchase. This is something I learned from my a previous Nordstrom Anniversary Sale – I bought booties and they were just a little too tight for my wide feet! I kept them anyway. I just try not to wear them for long hours.
As you browse through these collages (all are linked) I made, I suggest putting items you love in your “wish list.” This will make the process to check out quick and easy, and gives you a higher chance of actually getting these products. I do want to warn you however, that I did end up not getting a shirt that I successfully checked out with because turns out – it was out of stock. So, that is another thing that is frustrating.
Take note of when you have access to the sale (I myself can start to shop on July 16th), and remember, don’t go into debt over it! Stay in control! I always give myself a limit and even then, try to stay below it as much as I can. All items are linked, just click on each collage. Good luck!
