This is my 3rd of several blogs on merchants that offer cash back. I would buy certain items at Kohl's, Targets Stores, Amazon or elsewhere, only if I can get a bigger return based on their rewards program. Kohl's Cash First of all, beware. Don't use Kohl's Cash with discount. The value will be discounted. When you return an item purchased with Kohl's Cash will be deducted for the face value.
