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!!

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
