I am a big JC Penney mail order shopper and always use the promotional code in order to get their current mail order discount. However, most of the time I do not get my "post card which states the code" until after the sale expires. :angry: Either they mail out too late or my post office is lazy - no way to tell which is the reason.

Anyway, I thought that if me and other JCPenney mail order shoppers would pool our resources we could alert each other when we know of a new "code" for their discount; this would help if someone else has the misfortune of missing the code name or number.

right now I do not have a current code for them, but I had to order anyway. So if anyone knows a current code please share it along with its expiration date.

This will really help those who are still Christmas shopping.

Thanks.

You might want to sign up for e-mail notices. That seems to work out very well for me. The last e-mail that I got was for free shipping on orders over $49 It is good until Tomorrow. Dec 11th.

How to get free shipping throughout jcp.com:

1. After adding items to your shopping bag, proceed to the shopping bag page. Select "yes" under "Discounts" to indicate that you are using a promotional code.

2. Enter code DIAMOND in the "promotional code" box on the following page. Your discount, if applicable, will be reflected on the order summary page at final checkout.

3. Shop now! Offer ends December 11, 2006.

Enjoy!!

Jessica, I am signed up for email and this is my story as to why it's best to use the Promotional Codes and order over the phone instead..

The website warehouse is different than the phone ordering warehouse....the website warehouse runs out of stock almost immediately as soon as they publish their catalog or put the item on the site. I have ordered items over website and found out that the item is "permanently unavailable" then took that same code number and ordered over phone and got the order in.

The phone ordering requires a Promotional Code in order to get the discount that you'd get on the website. My feeling is that Penney limits the stock that they want to sell on the website - meaning that they aren't really interested in giving a discount on all their merchandise - only selected styles/items.

My feeling is that when you order a lot, like I do, they will provide you with the Promotional Code in order to keep your business. I believe they discriminate between regular customers and those who only buy once in a while over the website.

If the stock over the website is limited then Penney is controlling the sale terms, and the only way around that is to know the Promotional Code for the discount over the phone.

As soon as I get a postcard I'll post what the code is & its expiration date.

For me, getting a 30% discount can be more savings than free shipping...but thanks anyway.

Well sorry you are in such a huff with JcPenney's. Maybe someone else will appreciate the free shipping. Here is the new code that I got today.

Again it is a free shipping on orders over $49. It expires on December 17th. Hope it helps someone.

How to get free shipping throughout jcp.com:

1. After adding items to your shopping bag, proceed to the shopping bag page. Select "yes" under "Discounts" to indicate that you are using a promotional code.

2. Enter code LASTEM in the "promotional code" box on the following page. Your discount, if applicable, will be reflected on the order summary page at final checkout.

3. Shop now! Offer ends December 17, 2006.

Happy Shopping!!

      Welcome to the forum, @Mettedkny! Your ttg-igg numbers are elevated but what about your ttg-iga numbers? Were your ttg-iga numbers elevated at your original diagnosis? The reason I ask is because elevated igg antibody test scores are more likely to be caused by something else besides a celiac reaction to gluten. The ttg-iga test is considered to be the centerpiece of celiac disease blood antibody testing. But some people are seronegative for the iga celiac tests, particularly if they are iga deficient. If they are iga deficient, the igg tests can be helpful. Have you ever had a "total iga" test run to check for iga deficiency?

      Not sure where to start - been diagnosed for 17 years, and for 16 years my bloodwork has been perfect. Last May I started on HRT (estrogen patch & progesterone pill) for post menopausal symptoms, and to help with mild osteoporosis. In June my Gliadin IgG numbers suddenly went up to 59 (from previously being below 5 for 16 years). Did a deep dive on the progesterone pill manufacturer (Aurobindo) to ensure that the medication IS gluten free - and was told multiple times that there is no gluten in the pills. The pill is the ONLY thing that has changed, and my son, who is also celiac has perfect numbers.  Scoured my life to try and find out where the gluten could be coming from and the only thing I found was a tea I drank that had "possible wheat straw" (had been drinking this tea for about 5 years with no issues - and was confirmed by the manufacturer that their tea is certified gluten-free despite the "straw") - cut the tea out thinking that it MUST be the tea. Repeated the blood test 3 months later and it dropped to 55 - not indicative that the gluten has been found and removed from my diet. Had bloodwork done again yesterday and it is now 95 😳 I am completely floored. WHERE is it coming from??? I am SO careful. Would NEVER cheat, don't eat out and like I said, my son has NO issues and his number is 3 (as of yesterday). Has anyone had a problem with progesterone pills? It is the only variable that I can think of, but how do I prove that it is the problem without discontinuing to take the HRT (which I really need for post menopausal symptoms, sleep, anxiety, brain fog and hot flashes).

      That’s a good thought, I didn’t think of that aspect of waiting longer! Thanks

      Thanks for reporting back @Nicbent35! You seem to understand the options and the risks. So, it is a decision you will just have to make. But you don't have to make it right away. You might consider keeping her gluten-free for a while yet. I would give it six months before considering adding gluten back in. Make sure the improvement you are seeing is due to removing gluten and not something else that will pass such that you see a reversion to former behavior and symptoms.

      If you have been on a strict gluten-free diet for several years, it would be normal for testing to show no evidence of celiac disease. No gluten, no inflammation. No inflammation, no antibodies and healing of the small bowel lining would result.  Personally, I think the doc gave you bad advice and I feel confident that trialing a return to gluten consumption would not be the advice that the vast majority of GI docs would give you. If I were you, I would seek a second opinion before resuming gluten consumption.
