Table Of Weighted Average Black Scholes Fair Value Assumptions [Table Text Block]

The following summarizes the assumptions used to estimate the fair value of service-based stock options granted during the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2011 and August 1, 2010, respectively:



	Twenty-Six Weeks Ended
	7/31/11			8/1/10
Weighted average risk‑free interest rate	2.62		%	2.99		%
Weighted average expected option term (in years)	6.25			6.25
Weighted average expected volatility	44.35		%	41.78		%
Expected annual dividends per share	$	0.15		$	0.15
Weighted average estimated fair value per option	$	29.81		$	26.45

The Company has continued to utilize the simplified method to estimate the expected term for its “plain vanilla” stock options granted due to a lack of relevant historical data resulting, in part, from changes in the pool of employees receiving option grants and changes in the vesting schedule of certain grants. The Company will continue to evaluate the appropriateness of utilizing such method.
