Bankrupted J.C. Penney announced Thursday the list of the 154 stores it plans to close this summer, with store closing sales kicking off June 12.

[Salman]

I hadn't realized there were still that many stores, though I did vaguely know they were still sort of in business.

[Mr. K]

Sears should have gone full Trump support and watched their business climb back into the black.

[Red Badger]

Our store is closing..................Sad..................

[the OlLine Rebel]

This is sad, yet again. For about 15-20 years I liked JC Penney, then they downgraded service even more with those big kiosks for cashiering (only 4 in our store), and started catering to homos.

But then, what business DOESNT cater to homos...AND thug and rioters...

[real saxophonist]

I really thought the one here had already closed. The Sears closed, and about half the mall has been torn down.

[Allen In Texas Hill Country]

I was waiting for this entry. Ours is staying open. I buy my stuff from there.

[Sans-Culotte]

Looks like the one in my location is still afloat.

[McGavin999]

Here in Phoenix it went from a nice, middle class store to a junk store catering to the illegals. Anything you bought there fell apart after just a wash or two.

[ducttape45]

I stopped shopping there when they woke and starting catering to the homosexual community. Will be sad to see another empty storefront but I’m sure something will come along to fill it.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Funny, I heard about this because my husband last night said they’re closing the western-MD store I used to visit vacationing with my aunt and uncle. But it’s not anywhere close on the map.

[MplsSteve]

Sad.

Sad to see some many of the stores I knw as a kid closing for good.

I swear the time is not far in coming where we either order our clothes online or go to Wal-Mart or Target.

[UB355]

only 1 of 10 stores closing in Wisconsin

[SunkenCiv]

It’s only happening in 37 states. By Obama’s count, that leaves 20 states.

[Berosus]

So is it just the stores in the named towns that are closing, or all the dots on the map?

[Spktyr]

Uh, no. Trump supporters would have gone in, seen all the made in China tools, the low quality crap everything else, and left.

Support for Trump would not have saved Sears.

[Spktyr]

Not selling anything anyone under 50 wanted was also a problem for them. Their attempt to get the LGBT people in didn’t actually work as they had nothing the under 50 LGBTs wanted either.

[wally_bert]

I probably haven’t been in one since the mid 90s.

[faithhopecharity]

its a shame, both JCPenney and Sears were good stores at one time

[discostu]

My favorite spot to buy pants is on the hitlist. Oh well.
