JCPENNEY NATIONALLY ADVERTISED DISCOUNT COUPONS

I went shopping Dec 26, enticed by the flier with the coupon to receive $10 off purchases over $50 to include sale items. My friend and I shopped with the intentions to save $10 with this coupon above the rack sales. At check out the register did a bunch of so-called discount acknowledgments which had nothing to do with this coupon, and on the end of the ticket it acknowledged the coupon but did not make the adjustment of $10 even though the total sale without it was above $50. Now, I'm not stupid, and I certainly can add up what my sale items would approximate before the coupon to reach the $50 quota, yet the register did not discount the $10 off. The poor little sales clerk did it twice, and it came up to the same but never would give the $10 off that I was entitled to. Considering that the register at this Bristol Mall JCPenney store has been manipulated to tally confusing discounts to show how one has gotten to the advertised sale price on the receipt. This sales register "trick" is nothing more than consumer fraud of not giving the discount of the coupon by computer sales register theft. The acknowledgment of the coupon's existence at the end of the sales receipt is nothing but a ploy to keep the consumers from reviewing their receipt- as at first glance the coupon is acknowledged at the bottom of the receipt. It's when one actually does the math from the sale price to the end coupon that JCPENNEY'S theft is a creative sales technique. I want my $10, I followed the guidelines of the coupon. I do not want this in redemption coupon form, I want the $10 that is mine and JCPENNEY has stolen from me in malicious and purposeful theft. I will be making this creative sales theft publicly known in every avenue available to me, and as I'm sure, JCPENNEY has cheated numerous consumers with this sales theft tactic- a class action suit may follow the more consumers look at their receipts, and hopefully Federal charges from the Justice department on the heads of this inventive consumer theft. Have the receipt and the advertisement, also the Website offered the same coupon and sales that I went to the store to purchase. Since this was a national advertisement it is obvious that they have stolen thousands of dollars from consumers they have lured to purchase, enticed with extra value of this coupon, all the while they plotted creatively to boost their end of year sales through this computer register theft technique.
