Ok mamas, listen up! If you are pregnant, about to have a newborn, and are in the market for a car seat or stroller for your baby, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the time to shop!
My Nordstrom account says the sale goes live on July 17th, but Nordstrom cardholders can shop early access. I don’t like opening store credit cards, we just have one (the Southwest Rapid Rewards credit card) but if you’ve got one, then take advantage & shop early! But save some for me ◡̈
As far as car seats, Nordstrom is the only place I have ever seen the Nuna brand on sale, and it’s very rare. Make sure you do your research (I’ve written some blogs about them that I’ll link below) and know what you want before the sale goes live because you can’t return a car seat once the box has been opened. These will for sure sell out fast.
Car Seats
We used the Nuna PIPA infant car seat when Jett was a baby & loved it.
Read my review and comparison on the Nuna PIPA here.
Nordstrom has the Nuna Pipa RX and Pipa Lite RX in a Nordstrom exclusive color on sale (so cute!) during the anniversary sale. I would recommend all Nuna products – you can’t go wrong. But make sure to do your own research and pick what’s best for you. Here are the two Nuna models they will have on the sale:
Nuna PIPA RX – on sale for $318.99, normally $425. (save $106.01)
Nuna PIPA™ lite RX – on sale for $429.99, regularly $575 (save $145.01)
I personally wouldn’t pay this much, even on sale, but if you have the money or someone is gifting it to you, go for it! The main difference with this one is the weight. It’s 7 lbs, which would be great if you had twins. But, you only use the car seat for about a year, so I wouldn’t spend this much personally.
Nuna RAVA Convertible Car Seat – on sale for $399.99, regularly $550 (save $150.01)
We have two of these (one in each car) and are currently using them for Jett! I love them, and have friends who have the same car seat. I highly recommend it and would definitely snag this on the sale!! You can actually use this from birth, but obviously can’t take it out of the car and carry it as you can with an infant seat.
The Nordstrom exclusive color is the only color on sale offered during the Anniversary Sale, however they have black, blue, and gray available for $550. I think the exclusive color is super cute, and the exclusive is usually more expensive!
If it were me, I’d snag 2 (if you have 2 cars) of the Nordstrom exclusive color on sale if you are pregnant, or have a baby currently in an infant seat!! We switched Jett a little after he turned one to the RAVA, but like I said, you can even use this from birth if you want to go this route rather than the infant carrier.
Doona – on sale for $411.99, regularly $550 (save $138.01)
Some people swear by the Doona. It’s a stroller/car seat combo. Personally, I don’t love the look of them, but I do see how they can be convenient and good for travel! I’m sure these will sell out fast.
Strollers
Uppababy Vista – on sale for $749.99, regularly $999.99 (save $250)
We have the Uppababy Vista stroller and LOVE IT! We still use it and currently have a 2 year old.
Read my stroller review here. (TLDR: We love it. Buy it)
Before you get too excited, only one color is on sale during the NSale. If you like this brown “Theo” color, then it’s your lucky day, and you could save $250! I highly recommend the Uppababy Vista stroller! It comes with the bassinet.
PIPA urbn + TRVL Stroller & Car Seat Travel System – on sale for $674.99, regularly $900 (save $225.01)
I have not done any research on either of these, but I love anything Nuna (we have the Nuna Pipa and 2 Nuna RAVAs). This travel system is on sale for a great price and in a cute color!
Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono Stroller with Bassinet & Turtle Air by Nuna Car Seat – on sale for $1,408.99, regularly $1,878 (save $469.01)
I have not tried the Bugaboo, but have heard great things about the brand. Given the price point, this is an elite stroller. Regularly $1,499 for just the stroller, the stroller/car seat combo is a good sale. I have never heard of the Turtle Air by Nuna, but I will back anything Nuna makes, because we love our PIPA & RAVA!
That’s all for my baby item round up for this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! I will say there are some Maxi Cosi items on sale, however I have seen that brand show up so frequently for recalls, I wouldn’t recommend them.
For reference, when Jett was a baby, we did the Nuna PIPA car seat with the Uppababy Vista Stroller. I have posted 2 in depth blog posts on each.
