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. A sale is a-coming, I’ve got the tips but I like playing the game! 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 hope you are right! This warm weather has put me in the mood to shop!

  2. May 3, 2010 / 8:28 pm

    If the Speckled Ink Dress goes on sale, I'd be all over it.

  3. May 3, 2010 / 8:35 pm

    They are definitely taunting me with the plaza cardigan. However, when it DOES go on sale, I'll be forced to buy it even though it is getting super hot in Southern California. :/

  4. May 3, 2010 / 8:39 pm

    It'll be interesting to see this week if this reflects the British sales (which have shifted to Wednesdays) last week. We got: Claudine Tee; Prevailing Winds Tank; Wright Dress (!); Fifth Form Shift; Swift Current Cardigan and the Recital Cardigan, amongst others.Personally, I'd loooove for the Around the World Dress and the Salty Seas Dress to go on sale.

  5. May 3, 2010 / 8:45 pm

    Wright Dress, come live with meeeeeeee, pleeeeeeease? I am also lusting after the Chantico Tank in the worst way, but it's too early for sale, the Wright dress = more important. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel on my exams and was /really/ good budget-wise last month, so I echo others in saying that I am ready to shop, shop, shop! 😀

    I'd like to see some sandals go on sale.

    would love to score a PA on the wright dress and aniseed skirt i bought over the weekend (admittedly, in anticipation of a sale!)a ton of other stuff on your list that i'd gladly snag on sale!see you in the wee hours! 🙂

  10. May 3, 2010 / 9:07 pm

    What time does the site get update for the new markdowns? I'm new to Anthro and since I'm in West coast I miss out a lot of the sales. TIA!

  11. May 3, 2010 / 9:09 pm

    slates stripes shift was on sale at my anthro over the weekend!

  12. May 3, 2010 / 9:10 pm

    I betcha there will be a sale and I bet the Dauphine, Oscillations (peach/slate silk shirt), etc will be marked down. I'm scared to wake up!

    is it too early for banderole? i still lust after field game cardi even though it's way too warm to wear it now.did the blue free flow tank in xs JUST sell out? i thought it was available a minute ago…is everyone buying it in anticipation of a sale?!? argh! 🙁

  15. May 3, 2010 / 9:19 pm

    I was at Anthro around lunchtime today, and there were racks being marked down by the fitting rooms. The shimmering pin up cardigan was definitely among the chosen, so get ready, Roxy!

    Oh crap JaneKSass that makes me so excited! I have some other confirmed markdowns via emails, but I am sadly unable to share them. I can say this: tomorrow's markdowns look good. 🙂

  18. May 3, 2010 / 9:25 pm

    Fingers crossed for a sale on the State Fair Dress. I'd also like the Gaillardia Skirt to go on sale, but it's probably still too early for that one.Truthfully though there are just too many things that I want right now….

  19. May 3, 2010 / 9:27 pm

    Roxy-You are gonna taunt us with knowing and not share? Oh the suspense!

  20. May 3, 2010 / 9:27 pm

    C'mon Rushing Ruffles! I'd love the Speckled Ink to go on sale too but i doubt with the new color releases that it will….

    Sorry! I do not mean to taunt, and I apologize if it came across that way. Anthro asked me not to disclose sale items before the markdown hits the site and I am respecting that request. Plus, I do not want to get any of my friends who are Anthro employees in trouble for sharing with me. It all ends up for the community benefit in the end.

  28. May 3, 2010 / 9:42 pm

    Roxy I was just joking. I understand that they wouldn't want you to do that. Sorry 🙁

    Broke down and bought the Obi Silk Blouse, the Simian Tableau skirt and the Fiber Optics dress in the last couple weeks. Oh mighty Anthro gods, please see fit to grant me a PA on at least one of these items.

  42. May 3, 2010 / 11:36 pm

    Bought the Caballo Falls dress & Fifth Form shift last weekend. Would be awesome if they went on sale so I can get a PA on one or both. Sub!

  43. May 3, 2010 / 11:44 pm

    If the Wright Dress does go on sale and you're looking for a size 4, I'd call both Seattle stores first thing, because as of Sunday, they both had several in that size. Personally, I'm rooting for the Percussive cardi, Claudine tee (hope I can track down an ivory xs), and hopefully some shoes.

  44. May 3, 2010 / 11:52 pm

    Oooh, Roxy, your cryptic messages are making me so excited for midnight. Can't wait to see what items are getting marked down!! 😀

  45. May 3, 2010 / 11:54 pm

    Percussive cardi and Scalloped Sailor skirt would be SO nice but I won't get my hopes up.I am doing a sale dance for all of you Wright Dress ladies. It doesn't work on my frame (rats!) but it is the cutest dress ever. Ever.See you bright and early!

  46. May 4, 2010 / 12:04 am

    they need a big markdown to clear out all that stuff still hanging around from JANUARY. air mail skirt? secured corsage tee? twined ribbons cloche? come ON!now where's my free shipping through Memorial Day? that would be nice!

    Has anyone seen the "New York, New York" dress or the "Equinox Calling" dress on sale?

  65. May 4, 2010 / 2:59 am

    hmm in that case, does anyone know if/where I can find a size 0 in the Wright dress?

  66. May 4, 2010 / 3:10 am

    Natalye – the stlye # for the Aniseed Skirt is #020001. 🙂 Hope you get it girl!

  67. May 4, 2010 / 3:10 am

    Marcela,The Corte Madera, CA store (415.924.4197) had a few of the New York, New York dresses in their sale room today, marked down by about $20. From what I understand, they were just trying to sell off the last ones in the store – they were not damaged. I don't know what sizes were there today. Last Friday, there was definitely a 12.

  68. May 4, 2010 / 3:39 am

    does anyone know what's the style number for the wright dress? thanks!

  69. May 4, 2010 / 3:45 am

    Odessa — the Wright Dress style no. is #030012 🙂

    Blue Book Blouse? Cartography Cardigan? I'm sort of hoping not, just so my bank account can have a breather.

  73. May 4, 2010 / 4:07 am

    do they update at midnight eastern Time? I dont see any changes yet.

  74. May 4, 2010 / 4:12 am

    I'm pretty sure it's midnight pacific time (3am eastern) that it updates. So almost 3 hours to go…

  75. May 4, 2010 / 7:02 am

    Hrm, has Anthro caught on to the fact that we all stay up till midnight (/wake up at 3 AM) to check the sale and decided to delay the update this week? 🙂 Nothing new as far as I can see. Hrmph!

  76. May 4, 2010 / 7:04 am

    yeah… how dumb that I stayed awake and now it's after 3am and nothing. blah.

  77. May 4, 2010 / 7:05 am

    I know! This week of all the weeks I actually woke up for the sale, too. Bring it on Anthro!

  80. May 4, 2010 / 7:06 am

    I bet it will come soon… I'm *always* up at this hour and, the times that I have checked the Anthro site, I've noticed some variability in the time when they post. I don't think that they're actually trying to trick us…

  81. May 4, 2010 / 7:06 am
