For the most part, Piercing Pagoda is actually keeping the Zale Corporation afloat.
Although they are owned by the Zales Corporation, Piercing Pagoda is pretty much the only thing keeping Zales going. They're well on their way to being bankrupt overall. I believe a share of their stock is going for around $4.50 or something of the sort right now, while a share of stock in Walmart is $55. When you compare that, you're forced to see that they are indeed going bankrupt. As well, they have pretty crappy customer service skills and offer poorly created jewelry, so it's hard to establish a firm customer base when they're constantly after every dollar and not in concern with customer's problems.
It is free when you buy the starter earrings, though I would highly recommend going to Piercing Pagoda, which is also free with earrings.
from what i heard yes it is going bankrupt and they are closing.
no
There are a lot of places that you can go to (probably in your local mall) get your ears pierced for free as long as you buy the jewelry. That said, I would highly recommend going to a professional piercer. Going to Walmart, Claire's, etc. and getting your ears pierced is a huge health risk.
Yes
