03 Watch for Coupons
Check your Friday newspaper for a JCPenney sales circular. It often contains coupons for $10 off a $50 purchase and $15 off a $75 purchase.
Pay special attention to any circulars or mailings you receive around the holidays. They’ve been known to include coupons for $10 off any purchase of $10 or more. (That’s free money.)

04 Shop Through Mypoints
Are you planning to place an order on jcpenney.com? Access the site through Mypoints.com, and you’ll earn two points per dollar spent.
Hint: You can also cash in your MyPoints earnings for JCPenney gift cards.
05 Search for Promo Codes
If you’re placing an order online, be sure to do a search for promo codes before you check out. It’s fairly easy to score a 10-percent off or free shipping code.
- DealCatcher.com is a good place to look for codes.
- Do a simple search for “JCPenney promo code” and you will find many options.
Tip: Not every promo code available online actually works and, quite often, they cannot be combined. Try a few and choose the best deal.
06 Buy Discounted Gift Cards
Gift cards are another way to save money and you don’t need to wait for someone to give you one. Instead, purchase discounted gift cards through a service like Gift Card Granny.
By thinking ahead and paying less for a gift card, you can save up to an extra 16 percent on all of your JCPenney purchases.
