Kohl's Deal - The Purse

So for those of you who do not shop at Kohl's, they have this promotion every once in a while that for every $50.00 you spent, you get $10.00 in Kohl's cash to be used on future purchases. The only limit is that you have a week to spend this "cash."

So last week I bought shoes for my entire family. 3 pairs of dress shoes and 2 of those pairs of ~$10 Sketcher Shapeups featured in a previous post. I also bought 3 pairs of running shorts, which you saw, a sweater for my mom and some other dress shirts for my dad. As a result, I received $20.00 in Kohl's Cash. BANK.

Anyway, so I had a $10 Kohl's cash certificate left and I had to use it by the stated expiration date of June 25th. The way to get around this expiration date is to buy something around $10, return it, and then hold the $10 in store credit. So today I took my mom to Kohl's to look for something to buy, and if I couldn't, I was going to buy something, return it, get the store credit. Consequently, there was a friends and family 20% off coupon running until today too. After looking through the entire store, my mom decided she was interested in getting this purse to "think about." I don't know if she'll keep it, she's leaning towards yes, but even if she wasn't, I just wanted to post this deal.




The purse is originally $58.00. (I know, who would pay that?) It's marked down 80% off for $11.20.
















I had $10.00 off and the 20% off friends and family.

The purse came out to $1.39.






It does suck that they take off the Kohl's cash before the 20% off, otherwise this deal would have been sweeter. My dad claims I'm going to make the store bankrupt. I think it's the other way around.
