We went to Fort Steuben Mall on July 3rd to give Ms. Burrito a little shopping spree for her birthday. We dropped by at JCPenny to see what they have on sale. We found this black and blue dress that she likes.
The tag says the orig price is $40 and with 30% off, you would pay $27.99. We were going to buy it until we found one on the rack (the same dress) with an original tag price of $25. So we started looking at the same dresses on display and all of the tag under the perforation line were removed except that one that we found. I immediately lost interest in buying the dress because the store is deceiving the customer of what the dress is really worth. I was very disappointed.
To JCPenny at Fort Steuben Mall...
If you are going to do a scheme like this, make sure to tell your employees to do it right or else you will lose more customers like me.
ON a lighter note, we had so much fun on Ms. Burrito's 8th birthday celebration. We went to an Art Museum in Cleveland and headed down to Headland Beach afterwards. Will post the photos soon!
aw sorry for your disappointment but your daughter looks so cute in the dress
ReplyDeleteWell, that's pretty sketchy. Did you say anything to the employees about it? I wonder what their response would have been.
ReplyDeleteI stop shopping at stores that do that as well.
ReplyDeleteAdorable dress and daughter! I would definitely have asked the employees for clarification. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIf I am not mistaken there was a report about a class-action lawsuit against this store for having a some kind of misleading sales going on.
ReplyDelete. . . but I like the color combination of the dress..black and blue color my fave color
ReplyDeleteyou should have called it to the managers attention. I am sure there must be some explanation.
ReplyDeleteThat's crazy! I hate when a store would cheat on their customers.
ReplyDeleteThat's sad! Good thing you were thorough about the tag and found out about it.
ReplyDeletePretty girl , sure she got the look of a model someday :)
ReplyDeleteThat's not a nice thing to do! They should be honest with their discounts
ReplyDeleteHow sad, anyway.. your daughter really looks great with the dress..
ReplyDeleteThat's what you call epic fail on the part of the store. Sayang, the dress looks good on her pa naman. Glad you enjoyed the day!
