New Nordies Card Holder perk (or am I the last to find out?)

MNsara

Today, the Nordies SA said that beginning now in 2012, they are offering complimentary alterations to their cardholders!

Level 1 gets $100 in complimentary alterations, Level 2 gets $200, the higher levels must get more but I didn't ask.

I wasn't sure I heard right, so I asked next at Nordstrom Rack (they are about 300 feet apart!), and she confirmed it Plus, the alterations can be done with Nordstrom items or Nordstrom Rack items

Am I the last to find this out?

At least it's only January 12th and I haven't spent any alterations $$ elsewhere yet. . . !

ETA: Marianna can you confirm this or add any more info? Angie?

I didn't know this - I thought it was only level 3 and up (which is definitely not me!)... Wow, that is huge!

That is really great. Is it the alterations for the store purchase at the time of purchase or do they take other alterations?

I think anything they would normally alter should qualify, but I'm guessing!

(I never have items altered at the time of purchase -- because I always take them home to be sure I'm keeping them. Then denim I take home and wash twice before hemming too.)

Oh wow, that would be so cool! I have four or five pairs of trousers I bought at Nordstrom/Nordstrom Rack but never got around to hemming and this would finally get me to check it off my to do list. Would this count for 2011 purchases or only 2012?

Yep it's true! They added some GREAT new perks to the Rewards program this year! I'm fairly certain the alterations are pretty open ended as long as you purchased the item at Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack. Level 1 gets up to $100, level 2 is $200, level 3 is $300 and level 4 is unlimited. They made the higher levels easier to achieve too -- level 3 is 5k annual spend and level 4 is 10k annual spend. Another great perk: the addition of personal triple points days (level one gets 1 day, level 2 is 2 days, and so on). So if you know you will be doing a lot of shopping one day, you should make that your triple points day.

I think there was just something in the news about Nordys improving their rewards programs to make it more attractive. I don't remember all the details, but it included alterations, I think the amount of $$ spent to earn notes, valet parking, that kind of stuff.
In my experience alterations have always been complimentary on regularly priced items...like hemming jeans for instance.

Yay, Marianna! I'm starting with some jeans from them that I've never gotten around to hemming

CC - yes, I recall that too. Too bad that I rarely buy full price :-\ plus those were the basic hems, I think you were on your own for more complicated sleeve shortening (a personal fave), or original jean hems, etc.
