Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021 Notes & Tips
I’m reposting my best tips and details from last year because it helped so many of you out. Let me know if you have questions!
Sale Dates

Shop EARLY!!
Popular items sell out fast. So I highly recommend shopping the sale as early as you can. Nordstrom hasn’t guaranteed restocks beyond the presale for several years. If you’re unsure of your level, you can check it HERE when you scroll down the page.
Being a Nordstrom Cardholder is more important than ever! It’s FREE and has lots of perks. In addition to early access, if you’re approved, you receive a $60 Nordstrom Note toward your first purchase! It’s not too late to sign up so you can have Early Access. Depending on your level (based on your annual spending), the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens up to Nordstrom Cardholders around two weeks before it opens to the public. Believe me, it’s totally worth it. If you’re worried about interest, just do what I do and pay that sucker off monthly!
Check Back for Restocks
If something you want is out of stock in your size or color, check back frequently to see if it’s restocked. Many items DO restock throughout the sale.
Online vs In-Store
Should you shop online or in-store? Everything from the Anniversary Sale is available online. Each store has a different buyer and will carry different inventory, so only some of the things you find online are available in-store. In-store pickup is available as well.
My BIGGEST Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021 Tip
As someone who LOVES to fill a cart with everything I need before checking out, I have to tell you to NOT DO THIS during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021. Nordstrom has FREE SHIPPING and FREE RETURNS. So if you see a must-have item that you want and need, throw it in your cart and check out right then and there. Trust me – I’ve been that person who put that gorgeous dress (or those fave undies I stock up on each year) into my cart and then got distracted…only to find them gone hours later! You can check out as many times as you want until 8/8. But you never know when your favorite product will be gone for good! Shop smart and have fun!
