I’ve noticed a considerable improvement at JCP in the last few months. Salespeople seem happier, too.
Last time I was in Penneys was over a year ago. We had to walk through it to get to the places we wanted to go in the mall.
I checked out some nice cooking knives, and bought them the next day at Walmart for considerably less money.
The other ‘anchor tenant’, Sears, is its mirror image.
