    It's good to see people standing up to moral degenerate that is being push on us today!! If JC Penny ignores their customers I hope they go out of bussiness for this heavy handed move.:type:

    Yes if enough people will take a stand instead of just setting back thinking things will get better on their own. I have let Home depot and JC penny know they no longer have my business until they stop supporting these openly immoral people.

    I would recommend that you do not send a form letter or Email.

    Write a long-hand letter (unless your penmanship is not up to par) explaining why you can no longer patronize their store. Also, if possible pay off your bill ASAP, as they rack up quite a bit of profit in interest fees.
    Also, purchase a product (s) at another store, that you normally purchase at JCP and send a copy of the receipt to Penny's. That way you are showing you are actually taking action.

    That is my plan -

    Thoughts?

    Excellent suggestions! I have long stopped shopping a Home Depot and make sure I buy at Lowe's even if the price of the item is higher. I have also called management at Home Depot and told them why they are not getting my dollars. I hadn't thought of sending a copy of Lowe's receipts but will.

    We recently have seen what pressure on Koemen for the Cure has achieved. Everytime they would call asking for a contribution I would explain exactly why the would see none of my dollars. I will gladly give to that organization now. It is important to support cancer research, but more important that we know what is going on with the money we send.

    I read that the top Susan G. Komen Official Resigns in Wake of Planned Parenthood Flap. Apparently Mollie Williams loves her some baby-killin’ more than trying to find a cure for breast cancer! I also read that contributions to Koemen are up 100% since cutting ties with Planned Parenthood.

    Do I send the email, which I'm sure is super effective, even if I already don't shop at JCP?

    Stupid move by JCP, but I applaud their permanent lowering of prices by a minimum of 40%.

    Help me out here. Is Ellen DeGeneres going to preach lesbianism in the JC Penney ads? Otherwise, how is JC Penney pushing moral degeneracy on us?

    Guilty by association.

    In addition - she will be getting paid - getting paid big bucks - $$ received from customers.

    Its funny - when Libs get upset about something and decide to boycott - they are applauded for standing for a cause.

    Well, that's a slippery slope.

    If most people who hold to this standard were aware of how the consumer giants market their products they would need to boycott just about everything.

    BTW, I saw the JC Penney ad that came with my Sunday paper and it was a neat, well done full color, non-cluttered booklet. Apparently JCP is going to stop the constant 'fake' sales and stop mailing you a circular every week touting that week's special pricing and simply have three prices--normal discounted price, a special price that runs for a month on topical items, and in-store "Friday pricing" on stuff they want to clearance sale.

    I didn't see Ellen DeGeneres anywhere.

    I am waiting for the day everyone stops buying gas because buying it helps to support Muslim countries.
