No Return

September 9th, 2013 at 04:29 pm

I'm not actually surprised by this, but I was unable to return the allergy decongestant product my husband bought. It is a controlled substance, thus no returns. He paid $15.50 for 10 pills. It is possible we will use them at some point. It just isn't the brand and combination we prefer. Oh well, I tried!

While I was there, I picked up four photo prints for my daughter that were taken when she was visiting a friend. I figured $0.86 to capture some memories was worth it. If I didn't make that purchase it would have been a no spend day. At least it is low spend. Smile

Can you think of other things that cannot be returned?

    It's important to know the return policy of stores before you buy. Years ago I was surprised to discover the furniture store where I bought our 1st microwave had a ' secret' No Return policy. While it was a planned purchase, by the time I got home I wished I hadn't bought the microwave. I didn't even attempt to take the big box out of the trunk. When DH got home we returned to the store and asked for a cart to move the microwave from car to store. That's when we learned of the No Return policy! There was no signage, it wasn't printed on the receipt and the salesman certainly didn't mention it. Writing to Government Consumer Protection was useless, business can set whatever policy they like and 'should' tell consumers. Writing to BBB, I learned they had tons of complaints about this particular furniture chain.

    In our region swim suits are non returnable for sanitary reasons, unless faulty.
