Kohl's Introduces Back-to-School Facebook Flash Sales




Starting tomorrow July 20, Kohl's is launching back-to-school weekly Facebook-exclusive Flash Sales. Every Monday through Wednesday through September 7, Kohl's is letting readers "Like" the item they want to see in a Facebook Flash Sale. Kohl's will tally the votes, and the most-liked item will be featured in that Friday's Flash Sale.

This week, the first item Kohl's Facebook Fans have chosen for the Friday Flash Sale is a Lauren Conrad Tiered Cami on sale for just $19.99 (shown above). It's a cute top but what I'd really like to see in a Flash Sale are these LC Lauren Conrad platform sandals. Yum.

Simply visit the Kohl's Facebook page starting at 9 a.m. CST Friday morning to shop this deal. Price is valid until 7 p.m. CST or until supplies last.

For example, Walgreens will be having their 'SaturDate with Beauty' with Sally Hansen. Beauty Advisors will be showing customers how to apply Sally Hansen’s new Magnetic Nail Polish. This is the perfect time to go as the nail polish will be on sale and the beauty advisers will also be passing out great coupons.
