Anthropologie stealthily sneaks a sale upon us

photo: Anthropologie Kierland Commons Not one to let a day go by without some kind of surprise, Anthropologie has marked down just a few items today. There doesn’t seem to be much rhyme or reason to what’s newly on sale and these markdowns may just be temporary. Either way, oh what fun it is to crawl around product sections looking…

RECENT PURCHASES I ♥

Free Shipping IS NOT back for everyone

I know what you’re thinking —why make a post if there isn’t free shipping? For the past several days community members have come to EA to excitedly report that free shipping is in effect over $150. Or $100. Or that they see flat rate shipping of $8. These new rates even appear on the shipping information page for those community…

Year in Review: Oh, the games Anthropologie plays

While there is no doubt that I love Anthropologie, sometimes they confuse me. I find 99% of my transactions with them are smooth as glass but that remaining 1% leaves me wondering if they actually want me to buy their items or not. Today we’ll take a look at some puzzling moves Anthropologie made in 2010. Anthropologie is hardly alone…

A Time Gone By Lookalike, at a wallet-friendly price

The Time Gone By Dress ($128) has plenty of fans in the community. When the peach version went on sale suddenly a few weeks ago, the product page was already redirecting and several hopeful owners were left disappointed. Now it’s available in a new color, but back up to full price. Thanks to Patti, who sent along the following doppleganger.…

Rumors: More sale tomorrow?

The EA tips line is heating up! I’ve gotten a few tips today that there might be new sale items coming tomorrow morning. So far I’ve been unable to confirm this so I thought I’d open it up to the community — any employees care to chime in? If it’s on we’ll play the guessing game. And if not I…

The temptation of multiples

Cruising Anthropologie’s new arrivals section is a daily game of mine. It’s fun to pore over the pretty new things and carefully plan (and then, ahem, ignore) my budget for the month and decide which item or two might come home with me. This year I’ve noticed an interesting trend. More and more, Anthro is releasing an item in one…
