I've had them about 1 month. I'm going to try and spend them tomorrow. So I guess I will see what is going on. There is a new Penney's in our area, but I do worry about them accepting these cards.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15762588867431355249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5923612.post-20581662551979329752008-11-21T19:44:00.000-08:002008-11-21T19:44:00.000-08:00Cin,Well, I hope Barnes and Noble Bookstore doesn'...Cin,<BR/><BR/>Well, I hope Barnes and Noble Bookstore doesn't go out of biz soon!

So thanks, Super Sleuth Cindy --or whatever that title was!
