Playing the Sale guessing game


Ah, it’s Monday night and you know what that means — time to guess which items will go on sale tomorrow. While my wallet wouldn’t mind a break I’m still hoping to see some (or all!) of these items on sale tomorrow! Can’t say for sure which items will and won’t make it so I thought it would be fun to take some educated guesses. This post is no guarantee that any of these items will actually be on sale come tomorrow. What are you hoping to see? What do you think will/won’t go on sale?

I’m sure it wasn’t because I asked for them to go on sale but I’m still thankful that my long-desired Skyfall Dress and Falling Ribbon Cardigan both went on sale two weeks ago as well as the Bella Hothouse Bedding in Lime last week. Thanks Anthro!!!

I wanted to use a bit of post real estate to encourage you to check out Red Leslie’s blog, My Many Musings. She has posted some Anthropologie reviews for fans over size 10. I love that the community has evolved to include many different body types and I hope Anthropologie is seeing this and realizing that they have an opportunity to cater to stylish women cut from many different molds. Also I think it’s funny that almost all of the Anthropologie blogs start with the same Blogger template (Red Leslie’s current template was the one I started with, and was also the template of the first Anthropologie blog, Craving Anthropologie, which is no longer active.)

    I have been waiting for the Reed dress to go on sale forever!!!!

  2. February 15, 2010 / 9:38 pm

    I will weep tears of joy if the From-the-Green Cardi and the Prairie Rose Cardi go on sale!

    Hi Roxy, Somehow managed to visit all 3 anthros this weekend. It looked like the Soho did the first (10dollar) markdown on the gumshoe sweater coat.

  4. February 15, 2010 / 9:49 pm

    I think the Dandelion Wish Dress might go on sale. There has been a few dresses left, but they seem to have all disappeared from the floor at my Anthro. I can't believe they sold out of all sizes! A lot of the items were missing from my store and it looks eerily empty.

  5. February 15, 2010 / 10:02 pm

    I'm with you, Tien. I have a feeling about the Dandelion Wish Dress moving to sale this week or next.

  6. February 15, 2010 / 10:11 pm

    I'd really like the Glasshouse Dress to go on sale. It went on sale everywhere else! I could also go for some curtains to go on sale. There is one that I've been waiting since Winter of 08 for, and it still hasn't gone on sale.

  7. February 15, 2010 / 10:34 pm

    Crossing my fingers for the Dwarf Quince Cardi & the Embroidered Fleur Tee – I already have them, but I need the PA! 🙂

  8. February 15, 2010 / 10:34 pm

    I would love for the snow-covered fields dress to go on sale and the night blooming dress!

  9. February 15, 2010 / 10:41 pm

    I was just at Anthro and they weren't marking anything down as of yet for a sale..not that that means anything 🙁 Two of my stores just did a full restock on the Prairie Rose Cardigan, which I've been waiting for a sale on forever!

  10. February 15, 2010 / 10:48 pm

    I'm hoping for the On a Wing blouse 😡

  11. February 15, 2010 / 10:53 pm

    I have my fingers crossed for the Into The Night Blouse, the Letizia Cardigan, Sugar-On-Top Tank and the Night Blooming Dress!! If they all go on sale, I might have a heart attack or cry or something because I cannot afford them all.

  12. February 15, 2010 / 11:02 pm

    LOL, the Scalloped Clouds skirt has been on the "About due.." list for forever now. Hurry up already Anthro! 🙂 Not really hoping for anything else myself this week — except the Reed Shirtdress, except I don't think that's going to happen sadly 🙁

  13. February 15, 2010 / 11:03 pm

    Another one for the On A Wing blouse though I think it's still a bit soon for this top to go on sale..

  14. February 15, 2010 / 11:04 pm

    C'mon Paz tee…Mama needs a new Leifsodottir tee. (:

  15. February 15, 2010 / 11:05 pm

    I just want some second cuts, sigh. That and the tulip slingbacks, but I highly doubt those will go on sale this early. At the sale price I'd be sorely tempted by the dandelion wish dress, so I'm kind of hoping that DOESN'T go on sale, since I shouldn't buy anything else right now.

    Thank you so much for the mention Roxy! Now I can't wait to do more over-size-10 reviews 🙂

    Does anyone think there is really a chance the plaza cardigan will go on sale?? Oh, I hope so!Deborah

  20. February 15, 2010 / 11:46 pm

    Oh god, I really really really hope the embroidered thicket blouse and the gumshoe sweater coat goes on sale. I've been waiting for FOREVER for those items to get marked down.

  21. February 16, 2010 / 12:32 am

    i wouldn't be shocked if the small packages cardigan went on sale… they had pulled it off the floor today in philly.

  22. February 16, 2010 / 12:36 am

    I was all set for the Cerulean Swing Coat to go on sale this week, until I discovered it had been reissued in a new color and rechristened the Swingin' Swing Coat. So, sigh. I'd be happy if the First Flurry Cardigan would go on sale along with the Strewn Leaves Blouse (um, hello September 2009) and any loungewear.

  23. February 16, 2010 / 12:48 am

    here's hoping for the vines and buds cardi!

  24. February 16, 2010 / 1:40 am

    They just released the Plaza Cardigan in new spring colors and if you can believe it the piece originally came out in JUNE of 2009(!!!). No seriously, it really did. So maybe it will never go on sale. But I'm hoping that the winter colors will. Like tomorrow. 🙂

  25. February 16, 2010 / 1:54 am

    Hey Roxy — do you know if the spring colors = more than the light gray that I'm seeing on the site now? I own the ivory, and heaven help me if I even THINK about getting another, but I'd like to see them anyway. =)

  26. February 16, 2010 / 1:57 am

    Katie – Hmm I feel like there was another color but I honestly can't remember. Apologies, I wasn't looking all that closely at the store.

    Hi Roxy, I was wondering if you saw the Dots And Denim Romper in stores. I'm intrigued by it even though I'm unsure about the 33" inseam. I need at least a 34". Can you review it if you see it in stores.

  28. February 16, 2010 / 2:28 am

    Katie, I saw the Plaza cardigan in the light gray and a very light pink-almost neutral color at my store on Saturday.

  29. February 16, 2010 / 2:30 am

    Oh great, K Mel — light pink, my favorite color. NO, Katie. NO. No more spending money!!!

  30. February 16, 2010 / 2:33 am

    does anyone know what time anthro typically adds their sale items online? thanks!

    Did anyone see them marking things down in the store? Is anyone sure that there will be a sale tomorrow.

  32. February 16, 2010 / 2:50 am

    Molly, I've heard people saying it's usually around midnight PST. I'm on EST, so I've never actually been up to see that happen, though.

  33. February 16, 2010 / 2:52 am

    Is it horrible that I'm keeping my fingers crossed that none of the stuff I want goes on sale? I can't afford it right now!

    It was my birthday last week and I still haven't gotten my discount coupon. What gives?

  37. February 16, 2010 / 3:19 am

    Anon–I saw a few pairs of the Tawny Acres Boots on sale at my Anthro a month ago for $129.95. Not sure if you can get a price adjustment because I know stores will honor online sale prices, but online orders don't generally honor in-store sale prices.

  38. February 16, 2010 / 3:40 am

    I really want the Wright Dress to go on sale! It is precious and so flattering. And- it has monogrammed planes on it. That's what makes it so unique! I think you should review it.

  39. February 16, 2010 / 3:58 am

    Lauren, I hope you are right about the Small Packages Cardi. I've been waiting on that one for a long time!

  40. February 16, 2010 / 4:09 am

    does anyone know if there is still free shipping for orders over 150 or something?my last few orders have been less than a hundred and incase some good stuff goes on sale tomorrow, it'd be nice to get free shipping 🙂

    How do price adjustment work? Do I just need to take my sales ticket back to the store or do I need the item as well?

    GUMSHOE SWEATERCOAT!!! though at $90, I'm debating on whether or not to wait for the second cut. Does anybody know how long does Anthropologie usually wait until second cuts?Oh and my sweet scalloped clouds skirt. You're finally mine :')

  44. February 16, 2010 / 9:31 am
