Growing up, my family often times went to what my mom likes
to call “Pennies”, and the name best described why. You could find affordable things for all
members of the family. It was a “one
stop shop” for all of us not to mention it was close to home (this was before
they closed the store down in Sheboygan.
I remember vividly making special trips to JC Penny Outlet in Milwaukee
too. When we went there, we always came
back with a car full and boy was it cheap.
Sadly, they closed down last year as well. It was
and still might be her favorite store, and to this day I still shop there. I can’t recall a time when my wardrobe didn’t
have something from JC Penny in it, and it is still that way to this day.
To me, JC Penny’s has always been
affordable but with the recent change of leadership at the department store,
they have a new motto. …”Everyday price” Where you don’t need coupons and there
aren’t special “weekend sales.” These
items have the red price tags.
“Month-long values” where they feature certain
items during the month that stay on sale all month long. These items have the white price tags.
And “Best Prices”, where the 1st
and 3rd Friday of the month they mark their prices down even more
and these items are in blue.
I recently just saw a comercial for their new mottos as well with Ellen as their spokesperson-it seems everyone is getting on board.
I recently shopped at a JC Penny’s
while in a Palm Springs California and found a few cute, affordable buys. I found this charcoal/tan bowl neck a.n.a
sweater originally $40.00 marked down to $8 (with the blue price tag).

They recently started sending out
their new catalog as well for March 2012.
If you didn’t get one I highly suggest going online to take a peak. http://calendar.jcpenney.com/march/#!book/thebook/4
I found numerous items in there that were great buys.
Page 17- the royal blue color
craze necklace for only $9. Hot color
for spring and summer (my fav color always) and can be mixed with many
different outfits both day and night.
Page 95 – Stafford Suit-$100! Seriously, $100 for an entire suit. This kind of price on a nice suit doesn’t
happen often and this suit is a great color (neutral tone) and is apparently
wrinkle resistant. I am hoping to find
this suit this weekend for my honey when we go suit shopping for his upcoming
awardJ
Then just cruising around on their
website, I found this fun, adorable dress
Bisou Bisou® Metallic Strapless
Dress $18.
It doesn’t get much better than that! Throw this together with the color craze necklace
with a pair of fun matching blue heels and you got yourself a great date night
outfit.So if you haven't before, run, don't walk to your nearest JCP. You are bound to find a great bargain!
