    Is it only paramus and Ramsey Nj stores as written on site flyer?

    • Stacy

      It will be in over 1,100 stores nationwide. The two stores listed on the flyer are not doing both days; they are only doing December 1st.

    One per customer or per kid?

    • Amber (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Hi there! It appears to be one per child. You could always call in to your store for more details. Hope that helps!

    I have its quick and fun just make sure you are there early so you dont have to wait long …but if you do at least pack snacks/water & your kids can play with the toys while they wait lol…I even like taking my own pictures because you can take as many as you want and print /e mail them right away.

      Thanks a bunch for the helpful tips, Keesh! Good to know!

    “At more than 1,100 Kohl’s stores nationwide on December 1, 2, 9 and 16. “ How do you find the locations for the dates? I’ve been trying to search the web, but I can’t find anything.

    • Julia

      Call your local store and ask.

    • Amber (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Hi there! Be sure to call in to your location for more details on how your store will honor the event!

    I’m wondering what the FAO Schwartz surprise is. We have already done Santa photos but I can never pass up a freebie!

    Anyone else think this could be a total disaster? I’d love to take our kids but our Kohls’ toy sections (tucked in the back corners of the stores) are already a complete mess trying to get through on a normal day at the holidays, I cannot imagine what it will be like with Santa and a freebie going on. I’m so tempted but I have this feeling I’ll leave frustrated.

    I went last year. They were not giving anything free away and we were the only ones there when it started.
    At my store it was some employee dressed up as Santa and another one dressed kinda like an elf. Really not good. But whatever

    • Noaime
