The ad in the A.A.S. paper titled "Eager shoppers descend on Nordstrom
Thousands flock to store opening" Pretty much says it all. Nordstrom started in 1901 as a shoe retailer in Seattle. Since then it has grown into a nationwide fashion specialty store. And now Austinites can rejoice its grand opening.

"I'm having a blast. I'm having so much fun," said Linda Janak, 56, who says she was the first shopper to arrive at 5:21 a.m. -- almost five hours before the doors opened.

"I've had a couple merchants say it's better than Christmas," said Carmen Soto, the mall's marketing director.

I mean is it really that exciting? Austin has many outlets for clothes already, and the internet makes shopping at your favorite store even easier. I guess some people are crazy for money, cars, and even clothes :?:
