This same kind of thing happened when I worked in a salon at the mall. An old lady always came in and bought a bunch of expensive shampoo on "double-reward" day and then returned it so she could keep the rewards. And she always bought the SAME shampoo. Finally, I said, you know, you buy and return the same shampoo all the time." She said, "No, I've never returned anything that must be my twin sister." I was like, "Yeah, right." It turns out, she really DID have a twin sister who was going around buying and returning stuff!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00547648198382116917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815729.post-80914915760217616682007-08-09T22:07:00.000-04:002007-08-09T22:07:00.000-04:00Just the other day I returned a two dollar washer ...Just the other day I returned a two dollar washer to Home Depot because I had gotten the wrong kind. But it was still sealed in its bag and I still had the receipt. But the Home Depot was also right along my drive home. Afterwards I promptly drove down to the dollar store to get a pair of one dollar sunglasses because I'd just misplaced my previous pair of one dollar sunglasses. The pair I bought still had a Kohl's tag on them that said "Retail $20.00" <BR/><BR/>All in all, I figured it was worth the trouble this particular time.<BR/><BR/>I, however, did not make use of the item I was returning and then expect exceptions to the rules to get my way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815729.post-16155523608575389472007-08-09T19:47:00.000-04:002007-08-09T19:47:00.000-04:00Eh - I would be inclined to take the "Dang, I just...Eh - I would be inclined to take the "Dang, I just wasted $3" attitude myself, but I don't think it's likely that she dug through trash cans looking for a $3 <I>Soap Opera Digest</I> receipt. Sounds to me like she was telling the truth. <BR/><BR/>As to whether $3 makes or breaks you, who knows? I wouldn't sweat it personally, but I know plenty of people who would return something over $3. And you know what? Most of them have more money than me. I suspect there's a connection there: they understand that no matter how many dollars you have, you can only spend each one once.<BR/><BR/>My biggest issue with her is simply that she demanded an exception to the return policy because of her own carelessness, not that she made a fuss over $3.Kasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12252276821520357094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815729.post-91806757925208320812007-08-09T18:55:00.000-04:002007-08-09T18:55:00.000-04:00I don't know how many times I've accidently picked...I don't know how many times I've accidently picked up the same magazine twice, or my husband knowing I have 3 favorites, thinking to do me a favor picks them up when I've already bought them. I would NEVER think of returning them though, receipt or no receipt and NO way 2 days later.

His frigg'n register froze up before it printed the receipt, but AFTER the transaction was done and the receipt printed. I'm like, yeah whatever. So I reset the system without the receipt printing. I just don't care. So this Goth Mom comes up to me after that and is all in my face about not getting her receipt. Direct quote: "I need a receipt. I just bought a bunch a campin stuff. When I bring it back I don't want a be gettin shit for not havin a receipt. I'll be really pissed off if that happens." I'm like, yeah whatever. Bitch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
