Sales at stores that have been open for at least one year jumped 1.4% from 2000. Preliminary year-to-date sales of $2.2 billion increased 5.4 percent compared to 2000 year-to-date sales of $2.1 billion. Year-to-date same-store sales declined 2.2 percent.

After adjusting for calendar differences, total June sales increased 5.6 percent, while same-store sales rose 0.4 percent, Nordstrom said.
