No. I don't think I ever will. I have too much of a guilt complex. XD
I'd feel so bad that I'd go back to the store and re-buy the item.

I only have if I use it and it doesn't work, or if it doesn't live up to expectations. Which makes sense.

I have indeed. And it was a BOOK! Obviously, this poor thing had not had the pleasure of being proofread before being printed. I have never seen so many spelling and grammatical errors. One chapter was skipped over entirely whereas one was doubled.
The young woman working in the shop spent some (futile) time trying to convince me that perhaps that was the style of the author.

What a funny story. I guess the young woman working in the shop thought it was some sort of performance art executed by a book. Cool idea.

Haha yes! I returned Sims 3 after having played it once, because my computers didn't have the requirements. They gave me store credit.

I did use it to buy a couple more games, so it's not so bad, I guess?


I love best buy though. They don't check anything you return; they just take it back.
