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!!

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
