Hope it's not the one near me. Hate shopping on line. I like to see what I'm buying in person. Hate Walmart

love Wally World because i can buy American-made goods by shopping selectively, unlike others

It's a shame but Sears and Kmart along with JCPenney are dead men walking.

Everyone is quick to claim this is driven by online shopping but the core of what JCP (and sears) sells are not really online items. Clothing, bath & housewares are likely not big online sales areas. Some of these items that are online are still... — read more 

These store's and ceo's run their companies like id–ts and one wonders how these clowns got their jobs. Went to Kohls and a J.C. Penny's stores in Florida in Novmeber to buy sandals and bathing suits and they had Zero in stock. I asked for the... — read more 

Penny's is actually doing the right thing that will help it to survive. When you exceed your optimum scale of enterprise, by opening too many locations, you greatly reduce your profit margin because your overhead becomes too high for you to maintain... — read more 

Which means JC Penney, Sears, K-Mart, BestBuy, Macys, and other traditional retailers had better get their online operations up-to-speed – and fast – before they completely go down the toilet

I agree that Amazon has dominated the retail market. But, as it grows, it becomes a bigger den of c-appy merchandise. Where, in the past, I rarely needed to return things, I find that I have a lot of returns now. The products from Amazon's... — read more 

It's not just mall stores that will be closing en masse, it's a lot of brick and mortar stores as well. Retail jobs will be decimated, and tax revenue for communities will be as well. The Internet has changed so many facets of our lives, for better... — read more

JCP, you are dying, as are many department stores. Perhaps you should try something radical. Start selling an Ivanka clothing line. Start selling Trump books, socks and tee shirts. Set up a patriot section selling American Flags, as well as jigsaw... — read more 

Well, the average size an American woman wears is a 16. That's average. Stores like Pennys stock sizes 16 and lower, most clothes in the 4-8 range, and wonder why they have to close stores. I don't even go to brick and mortar stores to buy clothes... — read more 

I like buying from Amazon. I never enjoyed shopping. Going to the mall feels like a chore. When I do go to the mall I am in and out. Which is why I like buying online. I click on what I want, and in two days, it's in an Amazon locker. I can even get... — read more 

There is a big evolution going on that won't simply end with the death of stores like JC Penney. It seems like there will always need to be a place to go look at the object. Touch it, see it, hear it, try it on. I am a big Amazon shopper, but I... — read more 

So sad that JC Penney(along with Kmart and Sears) are dying. It's been a year since the Morristown,TN Penney store closed, which was replaced by D–k's Sporting Goods. But, on the flip side, this is probably move to keep them in the black and move... — read more 

For all of you with short memories, this has nothing to do with politics. Trump didn't cause this, Obama didn't cause this and Bush didn't cause this. It also didn't have as much to do with the internet as many claim. By the late 1970s, the... — read more 

We lost JCPenny in the next town. Have to drive a lot further if I want to shop at a Penny's or go online. Now we are losing K-Mart in our town. It doesn't make sense since the only place to shop is now Walmart. In the meantime the town that is... — read more 

Everyone overlooks the No. 1 retailer: QVC. Last year's junk at next year's prices. Nice shipping and handling charges support low cost junk profits.

My JCPenney once existed in a mall and I went there a lot. They they left it and opened a store at some newer outdoor strip center. I've been there exactly two times. I still prefer the mall but now this one is a joke. Nothing to do there now but eat... — read more 

Paying 60 bucks for a pair of pants made by an 8 year old in Bangladesh, is not a good buy. I can go to the Van Heusen outlet mall in Howell, and buy the same slacks for 17.99. This is why JCPenney will die just like Sears and the rest. And Van... — read more

who knows? what location will close first? is cary gonna be affected with jcp closures?

That's what I am hearing, closure. But you never know what will happen, that'd be a bummer. It's not like we have many stores over here.

JcPenny Department Store Closing doors on June 30, 2017 Address: 6 Mckinley Mall | Phone: (716) 822-1166 | Type: Store, Department Store, Retail Blasdell, New York 14219

I am not sure 100% but it sure looks like there is not enough merchandise to support an ongoing operation for this Wichita JCP. I hear that they will start working with appliances, that may cause some issues for Sears.

Anyone has more info on the plan here. Is this Yuma location gonna close soon? I Surely hope they will not.

This store may be closed based on Rumors, we'll know more in a few weeks but for now I'll assume it'll stay open and will not be closed. But, you never know what will happen.

those days are gone now.

It is really bad for major retailers - massive store closings for more than 1000 stores - Macy’s, Sears, The Limited, American Apparel, BCBG, Wet Seal, J.C. Penney and Abercrombie
