Maybe it’s because.......
they stopped their weekly advertising with coupons
...and not because they used Ellen in their ads, folks.

I shopped JCP for years. I was happy with their merchandise and their prices but dropped them like a hot potato when they came out with their homosexual propaganda catalogue.
I stopped shopping Target when they started carrying sodomite greeting cards.
Miss the goods and services from both stores, but I choose not to support them.
And they threw the Salvation Army off their doorsteps 10+ years ago; whereupon their sales figures dropped for at least the first year. I've never been back.
A pox on both their houses -- Target and JCP.
