Getting the most out of JCPenney gift cards
JCPenney is one of the best stores for stacking discounts. They run frequent percentage-off coupons ($10 off $25, 30% off, etc.) and earn-and-redeem rewards promotions. Your discounted gift card adds another layer on top of all of it.
During major sale events like their Home Sale, Friends & Family, and holiday clearance, the combined savings from coupons plus sale pricing plus a discounted gift card can bring your total well below original prices.
JCPenney Rewards
JCPenney Rewards members earn points on every purchase. Points convert to rewards certificates. You earn points on the full amount when paying with gift cards. Members also get birthday rewards and exclusive member sale pricing.
Salon services
Gift cards work at JCPenney Salon for haircuts, coloring, blowouts, and other services. If you get regular salon services, buying gift cards at a discount means every appointment costs less.
Returns at JCPenney
Most items can be returned within 60 days. Refunds on gift card purchases are issued as JCPenney store credit. Salon services are non-refundable.
