Disappointment in Shopping at JCPenny, Fort Steuben Mall

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!

  2. Well, that's pretty sketchy. Did you say anything to the employees about it? I wonder what their response would have been.

  5. If 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.
