I wasn’t going to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, but…

July 13, 2021 by jessica Leave a Comment

The novelty of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has worn off. I was planning to sit this one out entirely, but curiosity got the better of me when I decided to check out the home section … which then turned into browsing every single page of the sale. And I’ll be frank, there’s not much worth buying, especially those Barefoot Dreams cardigans and throws. You’ve spent an entire year in quarantine wearing loungewear. It’s time to stop doing that to yourself.

The sale opens to the public on July 28 and there’s a decent chance my favorites will sell out by then. Which is completely fine, since I don’t actually need any of these things, but it’s still fun to window shop. Here’s what I have my eye on:

  1. My favorite face lotion. It’s a good time to buy any of your skincare or makeup staples since you know you’ll use it anyway.
  2. A set of silicone utensils.
  3. Statement earrings. The black pair is the best.
  4. A bathmat that comes in three colors. (The grey one would work best with our upcoming bathroom remodel.)
  5. Reusable storage bags.
  6. This cult-favorite bra in charcoal.
  7. A striped Turkish towel.
  8. A black dress with a flattering, classic shape.

#NSale Access Without A Nordstrom Credit Card

July 12, 2018 by jessica Leave a Comment

Nordstrom Sale Access Without a Brand Credit Card

It’s that time of year again when bloggers go into a frenzy over the #NSale. That’s the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for those who aren’t in the know. It’s a selection of new fall items available at a discount for a limited time. It’s also when a lot of bloggers lose their sh*t for discounted duds that hundreds of other women are purchasing. I know I’m grumpy about this, but there’s such limited creativity with the pieces that seem to be featured throughout the blogosphere. (Although, I’m really into this yellow coat and I’m almost out of my signature fragrance.) Last year, I purchased two items: this Kate Spade mini dress that I love and Smartwool no-show socks. I didn’t want to succumb to the siren song of the sale, but I couldn’t help it. If you happen to be in the same boat, here’s how I gained early access to the sale last year without having a brand credit card. (Since I used this trick before, my information was saved and I was able to add Anniversary Sale items to my cart today without a problem.) Let me know if you try it and if it works for you!

1.) Login to your Nordstrom account.

2.) Head to an item you’d like to purchase and click “Confirm Your Card & Add to Bag.”

3.) You will be prompted to enter the last four digits of your card number, your last name, and your billing ZIP code. Use the following information in these fields:

  • Last Four Digits: 3012
  • Last Name: NORDPRD
  • Billing ZIP Code: 80111

This should allow you to add the item to your bag and continue the check-out process with whatever method of payment you’d prefer. As with any shopping tip, I can’t promise this will work for everyone, but it’s worth a shot!

How to Shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Without a Brand Credit Card

How to Shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Without a Brand Credit Card

With the onslaught of Nordstrom Anniversary Sale posts going up, I’m not going to add to the clutter with another roundup of “must-have” items. (Personally, I’m already tired of seeing the same 25 items gracing everyone’s wish lists.) However, I am going to share how you can shop the early-access sale without being a credit card or debit card holder with the brand.

After logging into your Nordstrom account, head to an item you’d like to purchase and click “Confirm Your Card & Add to Bag.” See below.

You will then be prompted to enter the last four digits of your card number, your last name, and your billing ZIP code. Use the following information in these fields:

  • Last Four Digits: 3012
  • Last Name: NORDPRD
  • Billing ZIP Code: 80111

This should allow you to add the item to your bag and continue the check-out process with whatever method of payment you’d prefer. While I can’t promise this will work for everyone, I was able to complete my transaction for this darling dress (it’s so “me,” isn’t it?) and some Smartwool loafer socks (exciting, I know).

Thoughts on the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

July 14, 2016 by jessica 8 Comments

Best of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2016

ONE | TWO  | THREE | FOUR | FIVE | SIX | SEVEN | EIGHT | NINE

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, or #NSale as you’ll see on social media for the next few weeks, is touted as the best sale event of the year. And, on its face, it is an enticing event with fall merchandise on sale before the season even begins. However, I don’t think the hype around the event is justified. I muddled through all 96 pages of the women’s sale and struggled to come up with a list of my favorites. Many items are inexpensive pieces from lower-end brands, others are just ugly (who is wearing this or, worse, this?), and some pieces are simply lackluster. I don’t know how many people are waking up today thrilled to discover a surprisingly high number of socks at discounted prices. I just don’t think the sale is as great as bloggers make it out to be.

Eventually I did find a few pieces I could get behind (listed above) and I’ve even added a couple to my wish list to revisit after the early access portion of the sale ends on July 22 and opens up to everyone. While there’s an option to sign up for a Nordstrom credit card or a debit card that pulls from your bank account, I’m not doing that. I’ll roll the dice and see if anything is available in a week. By then, I suspect some of the sale sparkle will have worn off anyway.

You can browse the sale merchandise here, and if — unlike me — you do spot something you can’t live without, snag it before the sale ends on Aug. 7.

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊
