Anyone had trouble with Kohl's rebates?

Has anyone had trouble with the most recent round of Kohl's rebates? Chris posted these messages on Facebook:

Beware! Received an email re: $5 rebate on the crockpot from Kohls in October. Will not pay the rebate because by using discounts the price of the pot was under $24.50. Guess I'll be going to Kohls to get my $5. Wonder if they'll be a problem with the new $10 rebate also? I called the rebate company , they will not offer it . Receipt show sale price of $29.99. . But after all discounts I paid $19.92

......

Here's Kohls response: " Unfortunately , because the offer was from the manufacturer , we are unable to issue a rebate.That being said , you can still attempt to return at your local store. " No box since I had to mail in the UPC, a rebate form printed by a Kohl's register, Kohl's advertising the offer in their ad , and they can't honor $5 goodwill gesture ? Even though sale price was over $24 , discounts made it less , and form Kohls printed didn't have that restriction. Wonder if anyone else has gotten this rejection also ?

I've never heard of this happening with Kohl's rebates, so am pretty startled to hear this. Is this an isolated incident, or has anyone else had issues?
