One of the biggest shopping events of the year is almost here — and no, we’re not talking about Black Friday. Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale is an event that many look forward to each year, but why? Well, unlike most other sales, this one stands out thanks to one thing: It features discounts on new items as well as savings sitewide on bestsellers across all categories, making it a truly unique shopping experience. This year’s sale runs from July 28 to Aug. 8 in stores and online, with early access to deals available exclusively for Nordy Club Cardmembers. Icon level cardholders get access on July 12, Ambassador level cardholders on July 14, and Influencer level cardmembers on July 16. If you’re not a cardmember, you can still get in on the fun thanks to Nordstrom’s sale preview, which lets you scope out the best deals ahead of time (and save them to your Wish List) for easier shopping later. However, with early access deals already underway, you’re going to want to jump on these deals ASAP because items always sell out quickly. Need some help getting started? Check out our favorite picks below!
