Bankrupt JCPenney said it would have to close about 30% of its stores. Here are all the closures

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

After it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in May, JCPenney warned it would have to close about 30% of its 846 stores.

Since then, the department store chain has made several announcements about which stores it plans to close. Liquidation sales have begun at most of these stores, and for the most part, all sales are final at those locations. Items purchased before June 12 can be returned or exchanged at most locations.

Stores are operating at reduced hours: 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday.

A note on JCPenney's website says that some previously announced closures are pending further review. Seven stores that were initially designated for closure have been removed from the list.

6. The Site Closest To Us Is On The List

That mall had a Sears, Carson's, and Penny's. The other 2 closed a few years ago.
That mall is dead.
All that's left are a theater, a couple optical shops & an athletic shoe store. Plus the food court.
It's basically an indoor walking track for seniors.

[Brother Buzz]

8. Our local Ace hardware store in my Podunk town in the Sacramento Valley is also....

a JC Penney catalog store. Just from casual observations, the service does zero business.

The nearest brick and mortar JC Penney's store is twenty miles away, either north or south of me.

Fifty, sixty years ago, pretty much EVERYTHING I wore came from JC Penny.

[renate]

9. the mall where I grew up is dead, but a mall near me now is absolutely flourishing... I wonder why

I mean, it's packed! I haven't been there (or anywhere) for ages lately, for obvious reasons, so I have no idea how the pandemic is affecting it right now, but before all this happened, it was always super duper busy. Basically full occupancy even though one anchor is a (dead) Sears, another is a Macy's, and another is a Penney's (and still will be). I wonder why some malls do so poorly and a very few others still do amazingly well.

[Johnny2X2X]

2. Almost all in small towns

These stores are major employers in many of those towns. In MI I see it's all small towns, this will be a blow to those cities, some of whom only have a hand full employers bigger than JC Penny's.

[Sherman A1]

3. A lot of lost jobs

Sorry to see it come about.

[LakeArenal]

4. The best white goods.

Quilts, sheets, towels. For the money. They had good sales in the catalogue.

Once I order some curtain tie backs.
They sent a really nice area rug.
I called and told them of the error. And reordered the tie backs. They said would send a label to return it.

They sent me the ties backs, along with another area rug. Never sent the label. I never reported the second. They were nice in the catalogue. I think $85 each. Heavy to ship to for the price of tie backs. I think were on sale for $9.

[mikeysnot]

5. the Carbondale, Il mall will have no anchor stores

that mall is been dying since Sears moved to Marion in the 90's. Marion mall is closed completely.

The death of the US middle class continues.

[sinkingfeeling]

7. My Penney's isn't on the list. Thank goodness.
