I strongly suspect it had more to do with profits than with the mail.

Probably not, but I stand behind my values. I think the other thing people don't truly understand is that when I talk about the variety of stores I have to choose from in the States, it really is a BIG variety. There are so many stores of all different types that one could never possibly see even a fraction of them all. I mentioned this in my first article about cereal; clothing stores are no different.

I'm not sure what the requirement currently is. I've certainly never as short a turn-around time as 1 day. I'm curious what the Canadian laws are on this issue. Odd response from JC Penney. At the worst, they were going to lose a customer. Probably the best they could hope for was that you would remain a customer, but shift to using a different card (meaning they would incur merchant fees on the transactions).

I particularly hate store credit cards! You are right, there are so many more options out there, why we fall for the 10-15% off our first order on these horrible financial instruments is beyond me. My family and I are not immune ourselves... We've had Victoria Secret Credit Cards, GAP, Banana Republic, Express, Sears, Target, Wal-Mart...you name the card, we've had them at one point and they all STINK!
