JCPenney Black Friday is a 10-day sale with the big one happening in store on actual Black Friday.
There's something so iconic and old school about the JCPenney Black Friday sale, which technically covers a 10-day span from the Friday before Thanksgiving through the Sunday after it.
They still do enticing giveaways to lure customers into the store, while also featuring their Black Friday deals online. This year, the lineup includes a snow globe giveaway at 5 a.m. and at 5 p.m. (while supplies last), a golden tote bag that gets you a 10% discount all season long.
JCPenney Black Friday runs Nov. 22 through Nov. 30, 2024.
Be sure to download The Krazy Coupon Lady app to set calendar reminders so you don't miss any JCPenney Black Friday deals.
JCPenney stores are closed on Thanksgiving.
JCPenney stores haven’t been open on Thanksgiving since 2019.
JCPenney stores open at 5 a.m. on Black Friday.
And that's the time you'll want to arrive if you hope to get that snow globe.
All JCPenney Black Friday deals are available online, except the giveaways.
You'll find all of JCPenney's Black Friday deals both in store and online. The only thing that is in store only are their Black Friday giveaways, which we'll get to in a second.
Doorbusters are kind of still a thing for JCPenney Black Friday.
JCPenney doesn't necessarily have doorbuster deals, but they do have doorbuster giveaways starting at 5 a.m. in store. In 2024, they're bringing back the snow globe giveaway for the first time since 2015 (better show up at 5 a.m. to get it, though). They're also offering a chance to win a $500 off coupon at 5 a.m., a free Cuisinart mixer at 9 a.m., and free diamond studs at 1 p.m. Then at 5 p.m., while supplies last, they're giving away golden tote bags, which will contain a bar code that gets you 10% off through Dec. 24.
Here’s the deal on JCPenney policies on Black Friday:
Price Matching: One of the last remaining Black Friday price match holdouts, JCPenney’s price match policy guarantees the lowest price on an item, even if you find it for less at another retailer. Even during Black Friday. JCPenney boasts a “365-days a year” price matching guarantee. Just bring proof of the competitor’s price. An ad or a mobile screen should work as long as a JCPenney associate can verify it. This means if you find an identical item for less at another retailer — Target, Kohl’s, etc. — JCPenney will give you the lower price.
Rain Checks: No, JCP won't issue a rain check for anything out of stock in store or online at JCPenney.com
Shipping: JCPenney shipping is free on orders of $75 or more, and store pickup is always free.
Returns: If you buy something on or after Oct. 15, the JCPenney return policy states that you’ll have 90 days to return it. Just remember to bring your receipt, and you’ll be good for a full refund issued on the original form of payment (or a JCPenney gift card).
But even if your return is after 90 days, you can still get store credit if you have the receipt.
JCPenney doesn't have layaway during the holiday season, but they do offer a pay later option for jewelry.
Unfortunately most retailers have done away with layaway options, which used to make it easier to pay for all the gifts you want to buy. But JCP does offer Synchrony Pay Later on fine jewelry purchases of $300 or more. These payments will include interest.
Join JCP Rewards before Black Friday to earn a $10 Bonus Reward.
Sign up for JCPenney Rewards before you shop. In past years, there's been a promotion where Rewards members can earn a $10 Bonus Reward when they spend $50 on purchases during JCP's Black Friday sale (limit three per member).
As of 2021 you can’t apply coupons during JCPenney Black Friday, so those rewards will come in handy.
Look for rebates on small appliances so you can save more.
Don't sleep on mail-in rebates. JCPenney used to have these in spades, but now we mostly see them on big ticket items like mattresses. However, you better believe we'll be checking for mail-in rebates on small appliances like toaster ovens and air fryers this holiday season.
JCPenney Cyber Monday deals begin the Sunday after Thanksgiving.
So here's the thing about JCPenney Cyber Monday deals — they're typically only available online. While other retailers take the opportunity to offer them in store as well, JCP keeps the cyber in Cyber Monday. Deals drop the Sunday after Thanksgiving and will last until Tuesday, making it a 3-day sale.
The Cyber Monday sale isn't necessarily better than Black Friday, it's just different. JCPenney's Cyber Monday sale is heavy on clothing and beauty deals, and there's usually an online code for an extra discount (30% in previous years). So our advice is to shop JCPenney Black Friday and snap up any deals you see on products you need. Then, with the pressure off, shop clothing on Cyber Monday if you didn't get the chance during Black Friday.
Shop more JCP sales after Black Friday and Cyber Monday for deep discounts.
Aside from Cyber Monday, JCPenney keeps the good times rolling after Black Friday with additional sales throughout December. Take, for example, the JCPenney Mystery Sale, which we predict will return in December 2024. But there's also JCPenney Clearance, which is typically full of major markdowns year-round.
