There is early access but the dates are different and it’s only in store. I have a US card. That’s why I can get on. But this year it keeps bumping me back to the Canadian site if I pause in my browsing.
My suggestion. Collect Finds that interest you from YLF and call Nordstrom to see if they will be available in the Canadian sale. You can preorder once the presage begins. In the past they’ve let me order even ahead of that. They just can’t deliver until the sale starts.
I ordered some items direct from the US this year and will try to get some in Canada. Usually I get my undies and lightweight stuff from US and bigger items in Canada.
