I can remember when you could go into JCPenney and buy just about anything other than heavy equipment. They carried a nice selection of guns and tools etc.

Then they went to basically a womens clothes store with a few more odds and ends.

I’m so turned off with JCP anymore. Have found other places to spend my money. Was visiting a family member in FL back in March. We went to Penney’s...the place was near empty on a Saturday morning about 11:00. From there, we went just up the road to Bell’s (Beal’s?)...something like that...comparable to Kohl’s. The place was packed. They had great sales going on. At the JCP store, at least the one in FL that we visited, they no longer have sales...the price you see is what you pay. Realistically, I just don’t think they’re going to last.

When I was a boy, we shopped Penny’s for most of our clothes. It still has a great selection of quality clothes at decent prices.

We would also shop at Sears and Wards. I still miss shopping at Montgomery Wards. I miss them more than I suspect I’ll miss Penny’s and Sears when they too are gone.

In 1985, I had JC Penney auto insurance. I bought a 1986 300ZX Nissan and they told me they would not renew the policy. I begged, pleaded with them about my spotless record, etc. and they still cancelled. I was able to get on with Cotton States and have maintained a relationship with them since them. JC Penney can suck it.
