NEW YORK (AP) - Children who missed the
opportunity to get a free haircut at J.C. Penney last month will get
plenty more chances.
After an overwhelming
response to the chain's free haircut program offer for children in
August -1.6 million haircuts, to be exact - Penney will be making it a
permanent offer every Sunday, starting Nov. 4.
The decision underscores
the extent of new CEO Ron Johnson's efforts to re-energize the chain and
transform every aspect of its business, from pricing to creating a new
shopping experience.
