Anniversary Sale...

I love the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! Not so much for the actual shopping, but more so for the pure entertainment of watching women claw and shove each other to get that last size of whatever the heck they want! The deals are good, especially if you want a new pair of dress shoes, but overall the stuff on sale is the type of item that when you wear it, 48 other people on the street are going to have it on also. As with any sale, none of the really good stuff is on sale and the sales people are bulldogs trying to push each and every item on you. Anyways, here's a list of the top 10 things I saw/heard this morning:

10. Coming out of the parking garage and seeing a pack of girls sprinting for Nordstroms. Come on girls, no need to risk breaking that 5" stiletto heel just for a new pair of jeans!

9. Getting bombarded by 5 sales people as soon as you hit the jean tables asking, "How you doing this morning, want to try those on" Then proceeding to grab 7-9 other pairs of jeans for you to try on. I wanted to try on one pair of jeans and the sales girl brought me 8 other pairs as I was in the dressing room.....RIDICULOUS!

8. Looking at the sale price of $39.50 and then noticing the "After Sale Price" of $45.99. Whoop Di Doo, for every 1 thing that is marked down reasonably, there are 4 things marked down weak-sauce like this.

7. Seeing the dude that rolls into Nordstrom at 7am and starts picking through the designer jeans with his sunglasses still on! COOL GUY!

6. Seeing the same dude stop as he's walking by a mirror to see if his hair is still all good.

5. Walking from one end of the floor to the other and being asked the same 2 questions 12 times, "Are you doing ok? Can I start a dressing room for you?"

4. Witnessing people who are genuinely crushed that what they were looking for is already gone. PEOPLE! It's not that bad, it will be ok, I promise!

3. Being amazed that it only takes 15 minutes for the frenzy of people to make Nordstrom look like a tornado just ripped through it. Clothes everywhere man!

2. The people who grab one thing, get a dressing room right off the bat, leave that item of clothing in the dressing room to "reserve" it, and continuing to go out and shop. These people are snizzes, they tie up every dressing room and make it impossible for the person wanting to try on just one thing and go.

1. Every year I hear it at least once while walking through the store, "Some bitch grabbed the last size!" HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA! Awesome how pissed some chicks can get at one sale.
