Assuming you are talking about the same brand name product, There are two answers to your question. First, K-Mart is a discount store and Kohl's is not. Second K-Mart has more stores than Kohl's so they can buy in higher volume which means lower prices. Hope this helps> Also for Cole's vs K-Mart, same answer.

Well they will always be cheaper than woolworths, since that store doesnt exist anymore. And its kohl's not Coles. Kohl's is more of a fashion department store. K-mart is more of a big box discount retailer. Majority of their product is bought in bulk and is of lesser quality. The leader in this game of course as far as selection and low price however is wal-mart

Basic law of economics...they don't pay as much for the product so they can sell it for less. Just remember...you get what you pay for!
