Kohl's Black Friday

Kohl's Black Friday sale is live! This is one of the few sales I wait all year for. The deals are just too good to miss. I love that they begin on Monday, so I can get a lot of my shopping done before Thanksgiving.

When I was younger, I always thought Kohl's was super lame. A few years ago, my friend told me it was always her first stop on Thanksgiving night. I went that first year, and now I'm hooked. Even better, all the deals are online.

So now I always wake up on Monday morning, and put my order in for all my favorite items. Another huge perk of ordering from Kohl's is the "Kohl's cash". The more you spend, the more cash you get back. I usually get anywhere from $60-$100 back. I am able to spend that on anything in stores or online starting the first week of December! Guys, that's a lot of free money.

You can buy gifts for others, or even something for yourself. Last year I bought a bottle of Prada perfume, and the Lorac contour kit I linked in my Holiday Beauty post. It's a win-win.

With all that said, I'm going to share with you my tried-and-true items I order every year. Also items I have my eye on new for this year. Give Kohl's a try for these items, and I promise you'll be back again next year.

Also there is a 15% off your entire purchase. On top of the already amazing deals. Use code, "GIVETHANKS" at checkout! 

1. Sheets
One of the first things I learned about adulting is that sheets are expensive. I remember going to Target after we got married and being like, "$80 for sheets?!" The great thing about Kohl's is that their sheets are on major sale only on Thanksgiving week. $15 for any size of microfiber sheets. $25 for the softest winter flannel sheets. So every year, I snag a new sheet set. (Or 2)

Also, this is the perfect time to stock up on sheets for the kids as well. Growing up, we always had special Christmas sheets that we put on our beds for December. I remember being so excited to sleep in my snowflake-printed flannels. So this year, I'm going to pick out some fun ones for Lux. 

The only thing about this deal is that the cute/neutral/trendy patterns sell out super quick. I've went back to the website to order more, just to find that the grey plaid pattern I wanted was gone. So move quick if you see some you want. 

2. Blankets

I always grab some blankets. We use our Kohl's blankets for everything. The girls use them on their beds, we take them on long car rides, cozy up with them in our living room, and even have lots for when we have overnight guests. There's nothing more gross than spending the night somewhere and the blankets are old and stained. I like to keep a few new ones back in our linen closet for when we have couch crashers. Haha! 

So here's the deal. There are two different kinds I can recommend. They run the $3.99 deal on one, and the $8.99 on the other. The more expensive ones are the softest material ever, and larger than the cheaper ones. The $3.99 are still nice, and a great deal. I always get at least a couple. But you do get what you pay for here. 

And as always, the best prints and patterns disappear first and don't restock. You can get them in the store on Thanksgiving night, but I'm not trying to fight the crazies out there for a blanket. 

3. Bath Towels

We ruin a lot of towels. Between Cory being super dirty from work, using them to clean up the kids' messes, and my spray tan residue, we are constantly thrashing them. Kohl's offers their "The Big One" bath towels for $2.99 during Thanksgiving week only. I always get the grey ones before they sell out. 

4. Bed Necessities

I bought "The Big One" foam mattress topper a couple years ago, and it's been great! It's under $35 for all sizes, which is a huge discount from the usual $90-$120 price. 

All the pillows! If you use normal pillows, you need to be replacing them every 6 months. I was "today years old" when I found out. Dust mites start growing in your pillow, and feed off your skin. That is so nasty. Point is, replace your pillows. Kohl's has their "The Big One" brand pillow for $2.99 each. I always buy at least 4.

5. Men's Shoes

I get these every single year for Cory. Black friday only, men's fashion shoes, dress shoes, and boots go on sale for under $30! These are actually good quality shoes, and they have so many stylish options. Tons of people always ask Cory where he got his boots, and I always tell them Kohl's black friday. Lol! They look so much more expensive than they are. I have woken up at midnight on Monday morning multiple years to make sure I get the styles he wants in his size. 

Extra Stuff I'm Loving this year: 

1. Shark Vacuum choice , under $85

I have the Shark upright vacuum, and it's been amazing! I've had it for over 3 years now, and still in perfect condition. I paid almost $200 for it, so $85 is an awesome deal if you're in the market for a new vacuum. 

2. Step2 Modern Kitchen

If you're looking for that "Wow!" kids gift at a smaller price, then this kitchen is it! I love that the colors are not overbearing, and so many fun features. 

3. Dolls for $4.99 

I'm definitely getting a few of these for my girls! If you have any little kids to buy for, one of these dolls (especially the Frozen ones) would be a great gift for under $5.

3. Slippers for Her

Such a great price, and tons of cute color/print options. I'm getting the cheetah ones for myself! Also a great idea for a mom, mother-in-law, grandma, or a girlfriend. Women of all ages love getting new cozy slippers. 

4. Velour Sweatshirt

I bought this exact one last year during the Black Friday, and I wear it all the time. The velour is so soft, and I'm definitely getting the grey color too this year. 

5. Beauty Gifts from $5 and $10

These items are perfect for teachers, stockings, or any random gift exchanges you're apart of. The package them so cute, and you just can't beat that price. I always snag a few to have just in case I get invited to a last-minute gathering. 

6. Men's Colombia Jacket for under $30

These are the perfect jackets to throw on anytime! A great gift for any man in your life. I've bought Cory the grey one and the black one. 

7. Flannel for Men $11

Does your guy need a few new shirts for all the upcoming holiday festivites? This is the perfect time to stock him up, so he's not wearing the same shirt as last year. Haha! I love all the different color and print options. 

8. Mens Sleep Pants $8.49

Do you know who likes getting comfort items for gifts? Everyone. Under $9 is such a steal for these pajama pants. I always get Cory a new pair and give them to him ahead of time, so they can be worn on Christmas morning.
