Kohl's Cash Ultimate Giveaway: Get Up to $100 Kohl's Cash by Shopping In-Store

If you're a Kohl's Rewards member, then you know receiving Kohl's Cash is one of the golden ways to save at the retailer. Typically you earn Kohl's Cash on purchases and have to wait until a redemption period to use it. However during the Kohl's Cash Ultimate Giveaway events (which Kohl's has been running about every six months), shoppers get Kohl's Cash coupons to use on eligible purchases that same day. And it's back Sept. 3 - 7 (which means you have five days to take advantage).

In-store shoppers can get $5, $10, $15, $25, or $100 Kohl's Cash as they walked through the store doors, no purchase necessary, and you can redeem that same day.

We'll dive into how Kohl's Cash giveaways work and the most effective way to stack Kohl's Cash with a coupon.

Kohl's Cash Ultimate Giveaway is a twice-a-year, 3- to 5-day event, distributing instant-use Kohl's Cash to shoppers in-store.

There are a lot of Kohl's sales, but the Ultimate Koh's Cash Giveaway (which Kohl's started doing in September 2024), is unique. It started as a three day event and went up to five days for the September 2025 event. It's an in-store-only event during which shoppers receive Kohl's Cash that can be used immediately (same day) on eligible purchases. Traditional Kohl's Cash is earned when you spend money, and there's a specific redemption period involved, so you have to wait for those dates in order to use the Kohl's Cash. During the giveaway event, Kohl's Cash must be redeemed immediately that day with no waiting, but only in-store.

In past events, the maximum amount of Kohl's cash you could get was $25, but they upped it to $100 for the September 2025 event.

Kohl's Cash Ultimate Giveaway runs Sept. 3 - 7.

The Kohl's Cash Ultimate Giveaway is a pretty new event (we saw it for the first time in September 2024 and again in March 2025). Now, with this third event, we can officially call it an every-six-months sale. The September event is longer than usual (five days instead of three).

Kohl's Cash Ultimate giveaway dates 2025

Previous Kohl's Cash Ultimate Giveaway dates:

  • Sept. 6 - 8, 2024

  • March 7 - 9, 2025

  • Sept. 3 - 7, 2025

Receive coupons for Kohl's Cash as you walk into the store, no purchase necessary.

kohls-cash-ultimate-giveaway-free-kohls-cash-event-september-2025-kcl-1

Normally you have to spend $50 to receive $10 in Kohl's Cash. However, during the Kohl's Cash Ultimate Giveaway, shoppers receive these $5, $10, $15, $25, or $100 Kohl's Cash coupons as they walk into the store, while supplies last, with no purchase necessary. Just remember that this special Kohl's Cash coupon must be used in-store the same day you receive it.

The Kohl's Cash is only available while supplies last.

These Kohl's Cash coupons are available while supplies last, with no publicly defined number of coupons available daily at each store. To err on the side of caution, we suggest getting to your Kohl's store earlier rather than later during the event. Kohl's has a supply of coupons for every day of the sale, so if they run out, try again the next day.

Tips for Shopping the Event

kohls-ultimate-giveaway-free-kohls-cash-event-september-2025-kcl-3

You have to use the Kohl's Cash the same day you receive it, and only in-store.

This event is not for those who like to tuck away coupons for a rainy day. The Kohl's Cash Ultimate Giveaway is only happening in stores, and you have to redeem the Kohl's Cash you receive that same day. You'll only be able to use it on an in-store purchase. So if you were thinking about bringing that Kohl's Cash coupon home with you and then applying it to an online purchase, unfortunately that won't work.

You don't have to be a Kohl's Rewards member to participate in the Kohl's Cash Giveaway.

While Kohl's Rewards members tend to learn about Kohl's Cash promotions and events earlier than the general public, you don't need to be a Kohl's Rewards member to earn or spend Kohl's Cash. The Kohl's Cash Giveaway is open to the public, and anyone can stop in and get their free Kohl's Cash coupon during the event.

Know what's excluded from Kohl's Cash before you head in-store.

As with anything in life, there are some exclusions when it comes to using your Kohl's Cash. The following won't apply when you hand over that sweet, sweet coupon:

  • Sephora at Kohl's merchandise

  • Kohl's Cares cause merchandise or other charitable items

  • Gift cards

  • Price adjustments

  • Kohl's credit card payments

  • Services, fees, taxes, or shipping
