Ways to Leverage This Bonus

I plan on leveraging this the easiest way I know how – buying something from Kohl’s to flip/sell. KitchenAid mixers are always a big hit, but we’ll see what surfaces for the holiday season.

If all else fails, I’ll buy some Amazon.com gift cards since I know I’ll be shopping there throughout the year.
