The correct answer is A. <span>My favorite stores are Bloomingdale's and Macy's. My sister only shops at Nordstrom.
The names of the shops are Bloomingdale's, and Macy's - both of these shops have the apostrophe and then -s in their actual name, so these cannot be omitted. The third shop doesn't have an apostrophe and -s: its name is just Nordstrom. This is why the other options are incorrect.

The correct sentence is,my favorite stores are Bloomingdale's and Macy's. My sister only shops at Nordstrom.

Further explanation:

Punctuation marks are the signs and symbols which helps in adding tone and meaning to the written sentences. They add pauses in the sentences to make them readable and comprehensible. There are some of the most common punctuation marks which are a full stop, comma, question marks, quotation marks, apostrophe, and hyphen. An Apostrophe is one of the punctuation marks. It marks the possession and is used with the possessive noun. It is also used to mark the plural form of individual characters. Apostrophe with an‘s’ is used to show that a particular thing belongs to a particular person. It shows that the person owns the thing or is the member of a particular thing. Even if the name ends with a’s’ still apostrophe and a’s’ is added to the word. Even after the plural noun, apostrophe and a’s’ is used to show possession. In the case of multiple nouns and each of them possesses the other noun separately than with each noun, the apostrophe is used. In the given sentence, both the nouns 'Bloomingdale' and 'Macy' possess 'stores' individually, therefore apostrophe and an 's' has to be used in both of them.
