Nordstrom Rack opens Thursday
Nordstrom Rack opens in Back Bay this Thursday, taking the space that was occupied by Filene’s Basement. Clothes, accessories, and shoes from many of the brands carried at Nordstrom will sell for around 30-70 percent off. Opening day festivities start at 8 a.m.; there will be breakfast treats and drawings for $100-gift cards and a $1,000-shopping spree (the latter comes with early access to the racks before the store officially opens at 9 a.m.). The first 1,000 customers to make a purchase get a complimentary Nordstrom Rack tote. The store is at 497 Boylston St., Boston, 857-300-2300.
