FAQs
WHAT IS EARLY ACCESS?
Early Access offers Nordstrom cardholders exclusive access to the sale. Last year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access dates are from August 4 through August 18 before the sale opens to the general public on August 19. It’s the best time ensure the best items are still in stock. If you’re not a cardholder, I recommend it as it has plenty of other perks.
HOW DO I GET EARLY ACCESS?
Early access to the sale is available to all Nordstrom cardmembers automatically. Access is available to all card levels and card types. If you don’t have a card, you’ll need to sign-up for a Nordstrom credit card by August 3. See below.
HOW DO I GET A NORDSTROM CARD?
Nordstrom offers two types of cards, the retail card or Visa Signature card. Both cards provide the same Nordstrom benefits, including early access to the sale. However, Visa Signature cardholders will earn additional Nordstrom points with any purchase using the card. Applying is easy and you can start shopping instantly, if approved.

- Early Access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (which is huge!)

- Plus, get a $20 bonus Note when you spend $100 at Nordstrom with your new Nordstrom card the day you’re approved.

TOP TIPS for the sale
We wouldn’t be besties if I didn’t make sure you had all the sale details. So here come my tips, tricks, and hints for maximizing your Anniversary Sale experience. Ready?
Shop early
My biggest recommendation is to be totally prepared to shop the sale RIGHT when it opens to early access, and the only way to do this is with a Nordstrom Card. As you can see in the timeline above, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens early to Nordstrom Card holders up to 10 days before it opens to the public, depending on the status of your card!
Cash in
If you apply and are approved for the Nordstrom Card, they will give you a $40 Nordstrom Note toward your first purchase at the sale!
Each store is different, but online is king
Next, just remember like I mentioned before that each store will carry totally different stuff since they all have their own individual buyers. That’s why we work SO HARD to give you guys the guides that will show you all the best stuff in one place, including how things fit and whether to size up or down, what’s most flattering, etc.
Know what you need
Look at your closet, see what you really need right now. Is it one good pair of jeans? A staple bootie that will get you all through the winter? Maybe it’s a good new pair of shoes you can workout in? If you need to stick to a budget, go through your wardrobe FIRST so you know what to spend on and what to skip!
Check back for restocks
Things will sell out fast, so we will have our “what to buy FIRST” blog post up with the things we think are the most popular and will sell out first. BUT, a lot of things will restock throughout the sale. Check back here DAILY for a list of things that have restocked that day. And don’t lose hope if something you love sells out in your favorite color or size, because there’s a good chance it might come back!
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is THE very best sale of the year when it comes to getting extreme quality and major sale prices, and I’m so thankful to have you here to shop it with me!
