The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022: Everything You Need to Know to Score All the Jaw-Dropping Deals

We consider ourselves the fairy godmother of sales, so when we say you're going to want to mark your calendar for July 15, you should do it right now. Why? Four words: The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022 aka the retailer's "biggest, most popular sale of the year," featuring jaw-dropping deals on top clothing and shoe brands, home decor and viral TikTok beauty products. PureWow readers reported some serious wins last year like a $40 discount on the popular Caslon Chelsea boots, a $49 discount on the sleek Fellow Stagg EKG electric kettle and a 35 percent off deal on the internet-famous Spanx leather leggings. To prep you ahead of time, we've put together a handy little guide to everything you need to know about the upcoming Nordstrom Anniversary sale to ensure you have the most successful shopping spree.

When is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022?

It starts precisely at 12:01 ET on July 15 and runs through July 31 (A preview of the sale is also available to everyone on June 29). However, some folks can unlock early access to shop starting July 6, which we'll get into below.

How Can I Gain Early Access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022?

To get early access, you must either have a Nordstrom credit card and/or be signed up as a Nordy Club member. (It's free to join, and card holders are automatically enrolled). Depending on how much you've spent over the past year, you'll earn one of three statuses: Icon (those who've spent $15,000 or more within the past year), Ambassador (those who’ve spent $5,000 or more within the past year) or Influencer (all other Nordstrom cardholders), which grants you early access on these specific dates:

  • Icon Member Early Access: July 6

  • Ambassador Early Access: July 7

  • Influencer Early Access: July 9

That's a week before the sale goes live to the general public, folks. So is it really a question of whether you should sign up or not? We don't think so.

What Deals Can I Expect During the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?

Think Black Friday level discounts on clothing from trendy brands like Farm Rio, Zella, Madewell, Natori, etc., up to 50 percent off beauty favorites, half-off must-have home goods and more. In sum: It's the retailer's biggest, most popular sale of the year for a reason. If you want to get a head start on some shopping, here are 10 amazing deals you can score in the meantime.
