WOMAN JAILED AFTER TRYING TO CASH IN $800 OF KOHL'S CASH FOR REAL MONEY WEATHERBY GROVE, MI — Alicia Renfro, 32, was arrested Saturday after store employees say she demanded $800 in actual United States currency in exchange for a stack of Kohl's Cash coupons, then refused to leave the customer service desk for two hours. Employees say the woman arrived with the coupons in a zippered bank pouch and asked to speak to "whoever handles the exchange rate." Managers say she would not be talked down: She had organized $800 in Kohl's Cash by expiration date, secured with rubber bands She insisted the coupons were "a currency" because they had dollar amounts printed on them She requested it in twenties, then reluctantly agreed to accept "large bills or a check" She accused the store of "running an unbacked economy" and demanded a receipt for the accusation She brought a printed page from the store website, highlighted in three colors Roughly $340 of the coupons had expired back in 2023, which she called "a technicality" Shoppers in line reportedly stopped checking out entirely and stood in place to watch the negotiation unfold in real time. "Kohl's Cash is store credit. It has always been store credit," said district loss prevention lead Anita Bergquist, who has worked retail for 24 years. "That woman came in here trying to open a bank." The bank pouch, still zipped, declined to comment. She came to make a withdrawal. She was escorted out with a balance of zero.
