A space Z is said to have the complete invariance property (CIP) provided that every nonempty closed subset of Z is the fixed point set of some continuous self-mapping of Z. In this paper it is shown that there exists a one-dimensional contractible planar continuum having CIP whose wedge with itself at a specified point is contractible, planar, and does not have CIP.
