ClosedAcct Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I don't know if this is the right forum for this question so please move me if I'm in the wrong place. My aunt gave me a picture frame for Christmas that I don't need (I bought tons on BF). I looked on Kohls website to see if it was clearance because if it is, it's not worth the drive and I'd save it for a gift. But, it's regular price at $24.99. However, they are currently on sale at B1G1 Free. So, will the give me $24.99 store credit, or half? I don't have a receipt and I will offend her asking for one. I'm not trying to seem greedy or whatever but it's kind of a drive to get to Kohls and I'm trying to do a cost-benefit analysis of whether or not it's worth the drive. Thanks for any help.

canfleece Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 In my experience with Kohls if you don't have a receipt they will give you the lowest price it has been (not sure what time limit). If the lowest it was is this sale B1G1 ...you would get 1/2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amberj365 Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 HA! Kohls returns without a receipt are a joke. I took back a 13.99 candle that was given to me (as don't use candles) and only got 2.99+tax for it. Yet another reason I dislike that store. Never again... It'll go in my yard sale next time.

mom2mande Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 It's not the sale price right now it's the lowest price from like 3 or 4 months that they use. So if at one time it was 60% off then you will get it for that price, if the lowest it ever went was 50% then that is the price you will get. I have seen picture frames go for a pretty good percentage off. Plus I have noticed the prices online are not always what are in the store. If it's a drive for you and you aren't going there to do other shopping then I would just save it and regift it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClosedAcct Posted January 2, 2011 Author Share Posted January 2, 2011 Sounds like it's going in the closet for a future gift. Thanks all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they only gave you $2.99 credit it was because the candle was on sale for $2.99 recently. I have never paid the sticker / ticket price on an item at kohls, with sales & coupons you can get most things there half off or more their marked price.

And if the candle was sold for a lower price anytime recently, you wouldn't even get the $12.49, you'd get less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibit13 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 You might be better off to keep it in your closet and then give it to a friend as a gift. I understand why stores do this, but i don't always like it. I would be happier if they would give you a choice of exchanging it for the original price or returning it for the current selling price.

swamperjmb Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 At kohls, you always have the option of doing an even exchange. If an item is originally 19.99, then you can even exchange it for another item that is 19.99 rather than returning it. Now if the item is clearanced, then they go by that clearance price. They really have one of the best return policies out there. Always ask your options if you are not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stowasser Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 just remember, if you don't have a receipt, they don't know what the original price is, yes it might be the $24.99 but we all get great bargains and this could of been one of those deals. The store doesn't know that from the item only from someone's receipt. I love the gift receipt that Target gives if you ask, that way you know that someone will get full value of the gift if they need to return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClosedAcct Posted January 6, 2011 Author Share Posted January 6, 2011 I decided not to fool with it and my boyfriend took it to give to his mom for pictures of his brother's kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotejb Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 They were only going to give me .84 store credit for a kids onesie so it will be regifted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bluecamel1913 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Probably would have been faster to just call Kohl's and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
