Sample Sale Website Invites

There's this online shopping phenomenon that makes it super easy to get extremely cheap chic items on a limited basis. It's essentially like going to a New York sample sale, but rather than risking a black eye from an over-zealous shopper with sharp elbows, you can check out new items at a fraction of the price online.

Most sales open at 10am or 11am CT every day, and you can generally get the e-mails outlining the sales that week so you can gauge if you want to hit the refresh button every 2 seconds leading up to the sale (exactly what I did with the Joe's Jeans and Smashbox sales this year).

Yep, they're free--no membership, and they won't ask for your credit card before you actually want to buy something.

For most, you need personal invites to get in--and I got your hookup:

Gilt Group

Hautelook

RueLaLa

Row Nine

Beyond The Rack

Ideeli

The Sample Sale

Editors Closet:
the problem with this one is that there isn't a link for invites...so comment on here with your e-mail and I'll send you an invite :)

Be Warned: The good stuff (especially when it's cheap) goes quick on all these sites!
