JC Penney has consistently been the worst place to shop. Shoddy merchandise, changing returns policy, rude customer service, misleading advertising, misleading 10%, 20% Off bonus cards (only good on Non-sale merchandise and of course everything is on sale!) and more. We no longer shop at JC Penney and recommend that you do not either.

I wholeheartedly agree with Leslie Casadonte.

We do NOT need any more government regulation…God knows we have too much of that, already.

What we DO need is more SELF governance. With all the 1000’s of stores and online shops available to us, must we REALLY shop at JCPenney, or any other store who does not value their customers/clients?

After being treated to a series of bait-and-switch scams in the 70’s by Sears (and Roebuck, at the time) I decided I would NEVER set foot in their stores again, and, more than 30 years later, I’m happy to say that I have NOT.

But what good are free pants if they don’t have them at all?

Wait wait wait-I hate government regulation! The more regulation there is the less responsibilty people and organizations assume. They rationalize that it is legal or falls within government guidelines so it must be OK. Plus the goverment can’t keep up with the private sectors ever changing methods of advertising and promotion.The preferred method is self regulation and setting a higher standard of conduct. I would also like to see the consumer demand more straight forward advertising by refusing to shop at places that deceive.

I agree with Tom. We need more government regulation!
