    Neiman Marcus Extra 25% Off

    This past weekend all the major NY department stores (minus Bergdorf Goodman) took their second markdown. In doing so, their websites have been crashed all weekend. On Saturday night it was impossible to to browse the Saks sale section, which is now hosting a markdown up to 60% off.

    Neiman Marcus dropped prices an additional 25% this weekand and customers are complaining that it can take more than 15 minutes to check out. One frustrated customer commented, “The web site is jammed! its taking forever to load!” Another commented, I “can’t even get on the site.”

    The final discount at Neiman Marcus is up to 55% off and there is still a great selection. That is, if you can cue yourself into the site. If not, you can always take a ride to Short Hills. It’s not like you will be missing a beach day with this April-in-June weather.

    Barneys Extra 25% Off

    This lack of Internet is a good reason to never go anywhere. Again, from my phone:

    Barneys just added a second markdown of an additional 25% off. The discount was already 40% and the new discount brings the total savings to 55% off. Before you go running to Barneys, read below. The savings and selection at Saks is better.

    Saks Extra 33%

    I’m without an Internet connection and posting from my phone. So I’m going to keep it short.

    Starting today, Saks is taking an additional 33% off already reduced merchandise. Most items have already been reduced 30% to 40% off bringing to current savings to 50% to 60% off. There’s still a great selection but it’s going to start going fast. On the other hand we know that there are lower discounts to come.

    Speaking of feeling good, how about a good discount? Most pieces in the collection are about $2000 and are currently marked down 50%. We here that the company is starting to shift merchandise from the store at Americana Manhasset to Madison Avenue. We read this to mean one thing: a new markdown is coming soon. The discount should go to 70% and when it does the merchandise will go very, very quickly.
