We've all seen those annoying but memorable commercials now. The one's with the various women screaming... Anyway JCpenny's is switching over to some thing called "fair and square" pricing. The hook is supposed to be that instead of "marking" up merchandise only to run a sale, the prices will be low all the time.
I have to say part of me is interested and part is skeptical.
I totally admit I'm "programmed" to wait for sales. It's like I don't buy until I see that word. I have also gotten ticked off when I want to buy some thing and I have to play the "wait and hope" game. Because of my sizing a lot of times if I wait for a sale my size is never available.
