So...three strikes on returns today.

Went to Target - no go without a reciept on ANYTHING. They wouldn't even scan an item for me.

Went to WALMART - they at least scanned things - nothing was "theirs" (even though they carry all those items on the shelves).

TRU same thing - no go.

What the hell do I do with:

Three Amazing Animals Sing and Go Choo Choos

Two Learn and Groove Musical Tables

Three of the exact same flannel sheet sets.

A bunch of "baby" toys too young for DS (rattles, etc.)

And Two Stephen King Box sets?

Re: So...three strikes on returns today.

that's crazy!!! i would definitely ask the buyers where they bought things and if they could give you the receipts.

it's a real waste of money.

I know!

MIL got most of the duplicates for us - including 144 diapers I hate.

She knows I hate them too, but they have Mickey on them so she got them for us anyway. Chat Icon

No one would exchange them for me.

Can you just ask the people for the receipts?

Try KB Toys-I was able to return something there today without a receipt.

ETA: Kohls is really good about taking stuff back as well!

Kohls is awesome about returns. I know they carry those FP zoo toys. Although, most of their toys were 50% off recently so you probably wouldn't get much in terms of store credit.

MIL lost them. Chat Icon

I had gotten the "firsts" from my parents the day before and opened them.

I'm going to see if my parents have the reciepts from what they gave me and maybe I can use them.

This is a great idea! It's a shame for someone to have duplicates or not get the full amount in store credit.

I'm thinking after finding out that I just got a "free" car seat from Target I might just donate all the extras.

Re: So...three strikes on returns today.

what is really sad is this all came about when we all started accepting the infamous "gift receipt"...what a bunch of BS. What happened to a normal return??? Honestly, this is why people are going to get ****** when you re-gift the same stuff over and over.
Try kohls and Kaybee like someone posted above.
