got about $300 for kitchen stuff and clothes next week and im torn. should i buy exactly $50 increments to maximize the rewards or is it better to do one big order and then use that cash on a second separate order? trying to see which way gets me more value for the kids clothes...
I would suggest being very careful with your subtotal calculations before you hit that checkout button. Kohls calculates the rewards based on the final price after all discounts and coupons are applied but before taxes. You might want to consider the $48 rule because their system usually triggers the $10 reward if you are within two bucks of the $50 mark. Honestly, doing one large order for the kitchen gear first is the smarter play. You need to make sure to wait until the redemption period starts to buy the kids stuff. If you split it into tiny $50 chunks, you risk missing the threshold if an item gets canceled or returns are needed. Just keep an eye on the specific dates for when that cash actually becomes active because the window is usually pretty narrow and you dont want it to expire.
