Can't say that I'm surprised. My mom dressed me in a lot of JCPenney clothing all my life and I dressed my kids in it too, but these past few years, its been a bummer. Maybe not in your JCPenney, but in mine it certainly went downhill. I went Christmas shopping there, or tried to and honestly, a lot of the clothing was not very nice and there wasn't much of a selection. I couldn't even find a Christmas department except a very few items they had scattered around the escalator area, and I mean just a few things like towels, candles, ornaments but not much of anything. I took my business to Kohls down the road.
