- 30-40% Anniversary, 40-60% Half-YearlyJuly, late May, late December
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and Half-Yearly
The Anniversary Sale in July discounts new-season stock before it goes to full price — the reverse of a normal clearance — and cardholders get early access. The Half-Yearly sales in late May and late December are conventional clearance at 40-60%.
Anchor tenant · Nordstrom
- Sale price plus an extra 10-25%Monthly sale weekends
Macy's One Day Sale and coupon stacking
Macy's runs One Day Sale weekends roughly monthly, and the 'extra 20% off' wallet coupon usually stacks on sale prices in apparel while excluding cosmetics and most designer brands. Clearance racks at the back move to a further percentage off at the end of each month.
Anchor tenant · Macy's
- About 25% including protected brandsSpring and autumn
Bloomingdale's Friends & Family
Friends & Family runs twice a year at around 25% off, including many brands excluded from ordinary promotions. It is the strongest single event for contemporary designer apparel in a full-line mall.

- Up to 70% across the two stepsLate June, late December, then OFF 5TH
Saks designer sale ladder
Saks runs a stepped designer sale in the same windows as Neiman, then moves residual stock to OFF 5TH, where it lands another 20-40% lower. Buying the same piece at OFF 5TH a season later is the cheapest legitimate route to boutique product.

Calendar
Events and sale windows at South Coast Plaza
What this kind of center runs every year, and whether it is a genuine markdown or programming that fills the center court.
- The Friday after Thanksgiving
Black Friday weekend and midnight openings
Extended hours from the early hours, door-buster pricing at the anchors and the year's largest single day of promotional depth. The first two hours carry the doorbuster stock; after that the offers are the same ones running online.
- 26 December to mid-January
After-Christmas clearance
The deepest genuine markdowns of the year: winter apparel, holiday homeware and gift sets clear at 50-70% while gift-card balances are being spent. Sizes thin out fast after the first weekend.
- Mid-February and late May
Presidents' Day and Memorial Day promotions
Anchor-led three-day sale events, strongest on mattresses, homeware, outerwear clearance and spring apparel launches at introductory pricing.
- Late July to early September
Back-to-school season
Kids' apparel, footwear and tech promotions run for six weeks, and in tax-holiday states the exemption stacks on top of retailer discounts.
- Mid-November to 24 December
Santa photo sets and holiday programming
Free entertainment programming that fills center courts — photo sets, choirs, tree lightings. Book photo slots online; walk-up queues run to hours at weekends.

In the news
South Coast Plaza news
Dated coverage of this center and the wider shopping market it sits in, each entry linking straight to the publisher.
Store opening
Barnes & Noble debuts at South Coast Plaza
The Orange County Business Journal reports Barnes & Noble opening at South Coast Plaza, adding a full-size bookstore to a center otherwise dominated by luxury boutiques. It is a deliberate dwell-time play rather than a discount one.
Retail trend
Value fashion moves into A-grade malls, narrowing the outlet gap
Primark at Mall of America and Uniqlo at Aventura put genuine value pricing inside flagship full-line malls. On basics, an in-mall value anchor can now beat an outlet rail once you price the drive — the outlet advantage is concentrating in branded fashion and footwear.
Retail trend
Collectibles retailers are taking mall space that fashion vacated
Pop Mart and comparable collectibles operators appear in new-lease announcements at King of Prussia, Ala Moana and elsewhere this year. These formats hold price and rarely discount, so they lift footfall without adding savings.
What each discount level is actually worth
Enter the full-line ticket price you are looking at in South Coast Plaza, pick the brand, and see the cash saving at every discount level — with CA sales tax applied, because tax often moves the total more than one discount tier does.
Sales tax (CA)
LuxuryOutlet gap: 30-60% below boutique
Boutique price holds all year; two official sale windows only. Local district taxes push most retail areas above 9%.
| Discount | Shelf price | You pay (incl. 9.5% tax) | You save |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full ticket | $200.00 | $219.00 | — |
| 10% off | $180.00 | $197.10 | $21.90 |
| 20% off | $160.00 | $175.20 | $43.80 |
| 30% offtypical outlet level | $140.00 | $153.30 | $65.70 |
| 40% offtypical outlet level | $120.00 | $131.40 | $87.60 |
| 50% offtypical outlet level | $100.00 | $109.50 | $109.50 |
| 60% offtypical outlet level | $80.00 | $87.60 | $131.40 |
| 70% off | $60.00 | $65.70 | $153.30 |
On a $200 Chanel item, the outlet store's usual 30-60% takes you to about $153.30 — a saving of roughly $65.70 after tax. Below that, price-check Amazon before you buy: if the same model is under $153.30 there, neither the mall nor the outlet is the cheaper option.
