crix101 Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 This is the thing that I always go for at Kohls every year. I saw an ad on tv last night that said that they were doing 50% off toys on Wedsday! Yeah, one more thing off my list for BF...
outnumbered Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Remember to watch out for inflated prices. This one is unbelievable: Fisher-Price Shake & Go Speedway:At Kohls the "regular price" is $70?!!! Their "half price" sale is going to give you a price $1 higher than you'll get at amazon.com right now.http://www.kohls.com/products/product_page_vanilla0.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=236351783&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=10204075&bmUID=1132067668404 At amazon.com it's going for $40 regular price, on sale for $34: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/stores/detail/-/toys/B0007WWZJA/qid%3D1132067707/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/103-8187447-7299850

ebony0421 Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 They have good sales at times, but some of their prices are crazy.

But if you know the prices(shoot you can even go compare them online) then you will be okay.
crix101 Posted November 15, 2005 Author Posted November 15, 2005 I agree about the inflated prices, Im always real careful about that. One thing I like about Kohls is that alot of times you can get gift sets that have more pieces or different sets than you can find anywhere else. I dont think that their 50off is ever like anyone else doing 50%off, as cheap I mean. But Im still glad. This means I can actually go and browse instead of snatch and grab like on bf!
dremerda999 Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 I do not think it is all of the toys. I didn't see Fisher Price listed. If that too is on sale please let me know. Not all of there toys have inflated prices. The leapster games, leap pad books, and dora toys are all comparable to everywhere else before sales. For instance I picked up several furniture sets for the Dora talking house. They were marked $9.99, some places they are $12.99. They were 25% off, open a Kohls charge 15% off, and 30% off through Nov. 15. I got them for $4.45 each set!!!! So it is worth checking them out at times. Frequently I like to take my mother to get the senior discount when they have the 50% off of toys.
orangedaisy Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Kohl's always inflates prices then has a "sale". You just have to be cautious.
peachysquirt21 Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Kohl's can have some really good bargains. You just have to keep an eye out. About a month ago I was at ours & they had tons of clothes dirt cheap. Good portion were just a 1.00.
outnumbered Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 As several people have pointed out, no, Kohls doesn't jack up the price that heavily on ALL items and they do offer some bundles/sets that you can't find other places. Some of their prices are absolutely terrible and some are decent. Many of their "half off" prices are actually only $5 lower than you might find somewhere else--but that is still lower. Some prices are actually higher than other stores. So you simply have to be careful and not just buy anything "on sale" assuming it's a good deal, that's all.
