I just saw the weirdest commercial!!
Basically Penney's is apologizing for something and asking people to come back.
Being honest, I never shop there and rarely pay attention to their commercials...I guess I should have!
What did I miss?? What did they do??

Plaid Sheep said:I hate the way the remodeled our JC Penney.
It's like they are trying to get a higher end customer (Nordstroms, Lord and Taylor) and failing miserably.
I could find things I liked before and now it just wide open spaces of sorta chi chi clothing.
Sad really.....
St. Johns is coming back?
To make a long story short they hired a guy who had no clue what the JcPenney customer base was about. He made a bunch of changes, few of which were well received. He was then arrogant and condescending and managed to piss off most of the few customers that were left and he started laying off employees left and right to try and compensate for low sales.
Customers left in droves culminating in the result of what may have been the worst quarterly sales collapse in retail history.

They fired him and brought back an ex-CEO to try and salvage the ruination of a 100 year old company.
Actually, their most recent error that they are apologizing for was the poorly thought out shirt they were offering for sale:
A large number of parents, women's groups and educators took offense at such a sentiment.
I think that shirt was from 2 years ago.
Shows you where I am!
Yes, it's from Aug 2011. But yahoo was just posting it yesterday (again, apparently). Stupid me, I forget that Yahoo has to keep us interested and will dig up old stories as "news".
I hope they are apologizing for having a crappy clothing selection
