@bonnie f Yes!! When JCP has a sale, they really have a sale!! I love their sheets and don't order any others. Towels, curtains, you just can't beat the quality. However, I ordered several items prior to the black Friday sale for Christmas gifts and they still have not arrived, so I am a bit put out with them right now. Just so they arrive before Christmas, I'll be fine.

Three Memorial Day Sales back I went in there to buy Granddaughter a shirt for the holiday weekend. The cashier asked if I had one of the $10.00 coupons on me which I knew nothing about. She pulled one out applied it to my purchase and the shirt cost me $1.67. My kind of sale.

OMG @SouthernBee I worked at ours in '79 and '80 senior year of high school and freshman of college. Like you I worked 39½ hrs. so to remain the status of part-time. If they bumped me up I would have to start over in not being laid off due to economy ect...... That turned out to be a blessing in late '79 when many were and some there much longer than me. Three days a week I went to school from 7:00 a.m. to 10:40 a.m. then to Penney's from 11:00 to after 9:00. Still found the energy to go disco dancing then back up at 5:00 to wash hair the next morning and start all over each day.

DH has several shirts and sweaters from the St. John's Bay brand that although several years old, are still as good as new and he wears them a lot. Wish there were a store close to me but there's always online!

JCP is offering good deals for shoppers, but I fear they are cannibalizing themselves as they do.

I've been following their stock for years because I, too, know a JCP family. The head of the family retired from JCP. Sad to say, did not sell off the stock accumulated. Twenty years ago it was worth over $60/share - just over $1 now. And both of the children who had followed their parent into JCP lost their management positions. I'd shop there - just wouldn't encourage anyone I care about to think of a career there.

I love Penney's and come from a long line of jcp shoppers. My favorite line is A.N.A.

It's actually JCPenny.

What do you all buy there? I walked through to get to another part of the mall and the merchandise looked dreadful; cheap and gaudy (everything had glitter/sequins).

I was on vacay last week and went to the store where I was vacationing. Got a great deal on jeans, a pair of dress pants and a sweater. It's normally f a hit & miss whenever I'm shopping there.

I ordered 3 pair of slacks and they didn't ship for over 10 days. Usually they are much faster with shipping.

In the past, I was only an occasional JCPenney shopper, but took advantage of some incredible Black Friday pricing, and Cyber Monday sales.

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

@SandySparkles I did the same thing! I shopped Black Friday and then finished off with Penneys on Cyber Monday.

My purchases were just delivered yesterday (the 13th) so their shipping isn't speedy---but that is ok with me. As long as it all arrived before Christmas I was fine.

They had a LOT of great buys this year! I need to remember to utilize them more throughout the entire year, and not just at Christmas.
