Agreeing they have to win over the customer base again....but in my store they are certainly willing to give Penney's that chance as customers are increasingly coming back as this past weekend evidenced...and once they realize things are returning to normal.

Some will never come back...those who don't are unwilling to wait until Ullman can get out the contracts with the likes of Degenerous etc.

The catalog is no more as flyer's once more are being sent out...and coupons as well.

It's only been three weeks or so since uulman took over.....he's accomplished a great deal in short order already.

St. John's Bay is back into the stores as of this week...and others will also be returning that were good sellers.

I think it's only fair to give him some time to turn this ship around...and I believe he will from all I'm seeing at floor level.

Employee moral was horrible under Johnson....now excited to have things begin to be normal again...slowly but hopefully surely.

I went into my local Pennys looking for Easy Spirit shoes, which I had always bought there. I looked around the department and didn't see the brand anywhere. A young woman asked if she could help me and I told her what I was looking for. "Oh", she said, "we don't carry that brand." I said, "you used to." She sighed and turned around and under her breath I heard her mutter, yeah, we used to.

She seemed so disspirited.

The key word is SLOWLY. Once they’re out of cash, it’s game over. They do need to take some POSITIVE STEPS now...or nothing matters.
