JCPenney official Black Friday sale started Nov. 17, 2023, with special offers on Nov. 24 for in-store customers when doors opened at 5 a.m.

Black Friday deals were excluded from coupons, but if you shopped Black Friday, Nov. 24, at JCPenney when doors opened at 5 a.m., one coupon per customer was given out. However, if you’ve ever read the fine print of a sale or giveaway and walked away feeling more confused than you did in the first place, you’re in excellent company.

We love that JCPenney kicks it old school on Black Friday with in-store giveaways as incentives to shop IRL. However if the fine print isn’t nearly impossible to decipher, we don’t know what is. Here’s our crack at making the confusing details of their Black Friday 2023 coupon giveaway simple:
