ITEM 8.01 Other Events

On August 27, 2007, Erik B. Nordstrom, President of Stores, and Peter E.
Nordstrom, President - Merchandising, each adopted a stock trading plan in
accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.  Under Rule 10b5-1, directors, officers and other employees who are
not in possession of material non-public information may adopt a pre-arranged
plan or contract for the sale of Company securities under specified conditions
and at specified times.  Using these 10b5-1 plans, individuals can gradually
diversify their investment portfolios, spread stock trades out over an
extended period of time to reduce market impact and avoid concerns about
transactions occurring at a time when they might possess material non-public
information.

Erik Nordstrom and Peter Nordstrom adopted a 10b5-1 plan as part of their
individual long-term asset diversification, tax and financial planning
strategy as follows:

 - On August 27, 2007, Erik Nordstrom adopted his 10b5-1 plan which provides
for the sale of up to a total of 20,000 shares to be acquired through the
exercise of his stock options scheduled to expire in February 2008 if not
exercised prior to the options' expiration dates.  Shares will be sold under
Erik Nordstrom's plan on the open market at prevailing market prices and
subject to minimum price thresholds specified in his plan.

 - On August 27, 2007, Peter Nordstrom adopted his 10b5-1 plan which provides
for the sale of up to a total of 25,000 shares to be acquired through the
exercise of his stock options scheduled to expire in February 2008 if not
exercised prior to the options' expiration dates.  Shares will be sold under
Peter Nordstrom's plan on the open market at prevailing market prices and
subject to minimum price thresholds specified in his plan.

Transactions under these plans will be reported to the Securities and Exchange
Commission in accordance with applicable securities laws, rules and
regulations.  Nordstrom, Inc. does not undertake to report Rule 10b5-1 plans
that may be adopted by any officers or directors in the future, or to report
any modifications or termination of any publicly announced trading plan,
except to the extent required by law.
