Move over, Prime Day 2025, this rival event is packed with designer deals and summer staples. Amazon Prime Day might be grabbing the spotlight, but Nordstrom Rack is quietly running one of the hottest sales of the season, and Nordstrom itself is getting in on the action with its beloved Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
Both retailers are currently offering major markdowns, making this the most competitive time of the year for companies and the best time for customers to save. Refresh your summer wardrobe while saving for your upcoming vacation, because this looks like a win.
Nordstrom Rack’s new markdowns will be available from July 4 to July 11, but many deals are available now. Some may call it the anti-Prime Day sale, competing with the Amazon Prime Day 2025, which takes place from July 8 to July 11. But whatever it is, there’s no better time to treat yourself.
But Nordstrom Rack sale has more than just clothing, score up to 70% off (plus more on the Nordstrom Rack clearance sale!) bestsellers across fashion, beauty, home, and accessories, including brands like Yves Saint Laurent, Cole Haan and more.
Nordstrom recently enhanced The Nordy Club, its customer loyalty program, to give Rack shoppers even more value and exclusivity, including:
- Instant 5% off for Nordstrom credit card members on every Rack purchase—online and in stores.
- Seasonal surprise offers and birthday perks delivered right in the Rack app.
- Early access to new arrivals and sales, plus same-day in-store pickup, so you can shop first and get your favorites faster.
While points are no longer earned on Rack purchases, Nordy Club members can still redeem Nordstrom Notes and enjoy seamless benefits across both stores.
