Nordstrom hasn’t impressed me for the last few years but I gave it another chance after midi said it had gotten better Their half yearly sale is on and I am in trouble :401k:

Are you talking about Saks Off Fifth or Saks proper?

wait theres a difference
sorrynodice

I've very rarely seen a worthwhile sale at Saks proper. Saks Off Fifth is fine but I prefer Nordstrom Rack. But it's not really a department store imo. More like a treasure hunt store.

C21 is dangerous because I buy something almost every time I go in And it's like right by my office

AFAIK Saks off fifth sources directly from Saks vs other off price stores usually have made for off price product and occasionally get product from full line stores

I had to go to Nordstrom for a tux fitting, walked around briefly and realized nothing looked promising as far as window shopping goes Their sale associates were aggressively nice too

The only things I’ve bought at a department store are luggage, pillows, and cookware. Not much to be said about the clothing they carry
