How to Win Money to Spend at Fivestory's Massive Sale

Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

The fate of the Fivestory boutique may be in limbo right now, but luckily that hasn't had any effect on its upcoming off-site sale—or the really amazing contest that the Upper East Side store began running today. Simply subscribe to the mailing list by visiting the site and you'll be automatically entered to win a $500 gift card, which, awesomely enough, can be used toward full-priced merchandise that just hit the racks or at the sale beginning on July 21st at 151 Wooster Street.

You've got a chance to win through Sunday, July 19th. And while you might be tempted to dream-shop on the e-commerce site, you'll probably put it to better use at the sale—even though plenty of merchandise will be up to 80% off, prices will still be steep. If you could've used this gift card at the last sale, for example, you would have still had to shell out an extra $60 to snag an Alexander Wang calf hair bag.
