It sounds like I will have to do the same. Calling the store is a good idea. I will do that and will read the blog post sometime today.<br />abc, I am planning to go to NYC and Washington from July 8-12. Pre-sale starts on 10th. I guess I will try on different items and have them put on hold for me during pre-sale.&nbsp;<br />Thistle, I have to get the card too.<br />Liz, looks like I will have to do exactly that.<br />RamblingAnn, LOL! that is too funny.<br />Charmian, I have to read that post still but Nordstorm family sounds good.<br />Sveta, this is great. I won't have to put it on hold. Going to &nbsp;apply for the card right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949416 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 01:00:21 +0000 Sveta 949416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mona, last year you could buy stuff and take it home with you during pre-sale - but you do need to get&nbsp; Nordstrom card for this. Actually you can get it in the store when you come to pre-sale - this is what they did for me. Looks like you are right there for the pre-sale start - go on the first day. It will be fun but be ready to spend a good portion of the day there&nbsp; - I always do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949305 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 22:06:54 +0000 Kristin SF 949305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Charmian, I didn't even *know* there was a Nordstrom family! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949292 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 21:46:11 +0000 Charmian 949292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>@Kristen SF</b>, that's super cute! &nbsp;I'm not sure I'd be able to speak coherently if I met one of the Nordstrom family!</p> <p><b>@abc</b>, Kristen's idea sounds like a winner to me.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949109 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 17:58:40 +0000 Rambling Ann 949109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In my world NAS = Nikon Acquisition Syndrome, an illness where all available funds go into more camera equipment. I have to consciously remember it isn't Nordstrom Acquisition Syndrome, lol, although it could be for me if not careful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949087 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 17:19:48 +0000 Liz A. 949087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Mona, where will you be shopping?&nbsp; Perhaps if you have to leave your items, they can be picked up and mailed by some trustworthy YLFer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949079 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 17:08:35 +0000 Thistle 949079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like I need to get off my tail and get a Nordies card!&nbsp; Too bad there are none in my area, so I will have to wait until the Sale goes online&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949073 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 17:04:59 +0000 Kristin SF 949073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BTW, did anyone see this blog post?

They have excellent customer service and can hopefully answer all your questions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949067 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 16:58:22 +0000 abc 949067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm that might pose a problem for me. &nbsp;I go to the US for business about once a month but my trips are usually only 4-5 days duration. &nbsp;Checking the dates, it looks like the presale is July 10-18 and the actual sale is the 18th of July through August 4th. &nbsp;I do have the Nordstrom card, so I&nbsp;guess I could time it to do the later end of the presale but I would worry the selection could be picked over. &nbsp;Anyone have input on that? &nbsp;</p> <p>Did I read somewhere you can order online and ship to store? &nbsp;How does that work, do you&nbsp;also have to wait to take items with you until the 19th?</p> <p>Mona, do you mind sharing your ttrip dates or at least telling us how they line up with the sale dates? &nbsp;I hope you will be able to take advantage.</p> <p>Thanks Kristin SF for the link and Mona I am sorry for threadjacking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-949058 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 16:43:32 +0000 Kristin SF 949058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here you go:<br /><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/anniversary-sale" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/anniversary-sale</a></p> <p>Sign up for the Fashion Rewards program and you can shop early. I'm not sure if they will let you leave with the merch, however. Maybe someone else can chime in about that. Whenever I pre-shop a Nordstrom sale, they keep my purchases until the day the sale officially opens, at which time I can pick up my things. Hopefully that's not the case with NAS!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-948903 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 12:58:37 +0000 Mona 948903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>abc, I actually have my dates set so it will be hard to me to change them now. I should have thought about it sooner. OH Darn!!!!<br />Anyways, it is nice to know that you are thinking the same thing. Hopefully, we will be able to scoop up something nice from the sale </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-948900 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 12:53:35 +0000 abc 948900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Mona,</p> <p>I am in a similar situation as you. &nbsp;I will be making a trip to the US in July and want to plan it around NAS.</p> <p>I think you need the Nordstrom card to pre-purchase, maybe a week or so before? &nbsp;If I recall there is an old thread that discusses this aspect.&nbsp;</p> <p>I will be watching here for more info.</p> <p>Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thinking-about-nas#post-948885 Wed, 05 Jun 2013 12:33:40 +0000 Mona 948885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will be in States for vacation July 6-14 and have started wondering about the NAS. I have never bought anything from it before as having it shipped to Canada adds considerably to the original price plus I am never sure if the item will fit me and I will have to ship it back.&nbsp;<br />THis year, I want to invest in one or two good quality items from Nordstorm. Does any of you know when exactly will the sale start? If it is after my trip, can I still choose the items in the store and have it shipped to me during the sale week? Any advice or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Do we have to have a Nordstorm card in order to pre-purchase? </p>
