Shopaholic: Store 'Cash'

I'm a big lover of Kohls cash. If you're not familiar with it, it's a promotion where if you spend a certain $ amount ($50) you get a coupon for $10 off your next purchase. What's great about Kohls cash is that you don't have to spend a minimum to use it, it's like a gift certificate. The only downside to Kohls cash is that it's only valid for a two week period of time. I can't save it for the spring when i'd want to buy a birthday gift for someone, i have to use it NOW.
I have yet to not use one, because $10 is $10, so i've gone in and bought socks, clearance shoes or a picture frame just to make sure that free $10 didn't go to waste.
Old Navy recently started doing their own version called Old Navy Bucks. Boy was that disappointing. I don't recall the exact amounts but i think for every $20 you spent you got a $10 certificate for your next purchase. Sounds great right? well not really, because to use the $10 you have to spend at least $20 at your next visit. Plus you can't use it online. So the only time I got ON Bucks I didn't use it because 1) the line at the store was too long and i had somewhere to be 2) i wanted to use it online and couldn't and 3) the redemption period was short and i ran out of time to go back to the store.
So the ON bucks were a bust, i won't waste my time with that again. I'll just keep an eye out for the $20 Groupons.
I do have one Kohls cash coupon and this time I think it's for $15. What to buy ? I'm sure I'll pick up some good stocking stuffers.
Have you heard of any other 'cash' offers like this that work well?

I love love love Kohls cash! I got some $15 ones when I went Black Friday shopping and Neil made me give them to him so he could buy some jeans. But, but they're mine...it was the hardest thing I ever had to do, giving up my Kohl's cash.
