Team,
I did this the honest way. I acutally found the website before seeing this post and filled out the information. I printed the coupon and went to the JCPenney in Carson, CA. The address is as follows:
JCPenney
500 Carson Mall
20700 Avalon Blvd
Carson, CA 90746
I picked up my shirt and proceeded to the checkout. The clerk scanned my coupon and told me to stand to the side and they called security. They were very rude and other customers in the store thought that I had stolen merchandise. I was reprimanded and told that people were using the coupons (and that they thought it was illegal) and the store would not take it.
I left my telephone number with the store and I got a call from the assistant manager appologizing for the whole deal. She advised that the store would not take coupon because so many people were abusing its use. She also told me that the manager would give me a call in the morning to discuss the matter.
JCPenney has definately lost a customer in this event. We will see if the manager makes it better. I have also sent a complaint to JCPenney Corporate and to the Nick(it) contact email.
I am so embarassed and mad. I can not believe that I was treated like a criminal. Why the hell would they put a coupon out if they could not manage its use and why would they treat people like they treated me.
If anyone else has emails or phone numbers for me to voice my complaint with JCPenney or Nick(it), please let me know.
