Best Kohl's Clearance Deals

The Kohl’s Clearance Event is a New Year sale that offers up to 80% off.

The event Kohl’s clearance ranges from 50% - 80% off, but most items we find are 50% - 60% off. It’s definitely worth digging through the racks to get that 75% or 80% off tag, though. You may just find a treasure.

Unlike other holiday clearance sales, it's not just for holiday items. You can expect to save on winter clothing, home decor, toys, and more.

The Kohl's Clearance Event Started Jan. 1, but expect more deals until mid-January.

Clearance deals have been dropping since the ball dropped on New Year's Day. We usually see about 10 days of Kohl's post-holiday clearance deals.

KCL TIP: If you’re shopping online, sort your clearance selection by “Percent Off” to see the highest savings available.

Sign up for Kohl’s Rewards and find stackable coupons for clearance items in your Kohl’s Wallet.

Kohl’s Rewards gets a lot of praise — deservedly so — for being an easy way to earn Kohl’s Cash . But there’s another great benefit that often flies under the radar: Kohl’s will send rewards members unique dollar-discount and percent-off coupons every 2 - 4 weeks.

I’m talking 15% off your purchase or $10 off items from a specific department (the department often changes) or both. It’s all sent straight into what’s called your Kohl’s Wallet. It’s easy to find: Click your profile icon at the top of the website, and your wallet is one of the first options you'll see.

KCL TIP: Check the top of the Kohl’s website for a special alert that says, “Take an Extra 30%, 20%, or 15% off when you use a Kohl’s Card .” If you notice that such a promo is running, check your Wallet. There’s a good chance Kohl’s sent you some coupons.

Stack coupons, promo codes, and Kohl’s Cash on clearance items for the Kohl's trifecta.

So this is when you really start to see the benefit of shopping Kohl’s clearance.

Kohl’s coupon policy allows for stacking certain Kohl’s coupons, promo codes, and Kohl’s Cash on already discounted clearance items.

You can stack coupons, promo codes, and Kohl’s Cash on many products, including The Big One items, which is how I was able to save 78% on a queen comforter set with sheets (regularly $179.99).

Shop the Clearance Event for 55% - 70% off Under Armour and Nike.

There’s no one brand that goes on clearance the most at Kohl’s. Aside from high-end appliances like KitchenAid mixers or video game consoles, I’ve seen Kohl’s put everything on clearance.

But the clearance prices I check first are on brands or products that are excluded from Kohl’s coupons, such as Nike and Under Armour. When these brands are on clearance, they’re usually around 55% - 70% off regular price, which beats the best sales from competitors like Dick’s Sporting Goods.

Look for the yellow sticker on Kohl’s clearance price tags.

How do you know something will soon be on clearance? Look for a yellow sticker on the price tag. This indicates the item has reached the lowest price of the season, and the price of this item won’t drop again unless it gets another clearance markdown.

Yes, you can return Kohl’s clearance items, but no price adjustments.

When you make your Kohl’s return , you’ll get back exactly what you paid for — minus any applicable discounts from promo codes or coupons — regardless of whether you shopped clearance in store or online.

If you used Kohl’s Cash to buy the thing, it’ll be reinstated in your Rewards account (rather than handed back to you in the form of legal tender).

If you buy something from the Kohl’s clearance racks and it’s later marked down another 10%, don’t expect to get a retroactive price adjustment.

While Kohl’s honors price adjustments for full-price items for 14 days, clearance items are exempt from this policy.
