It's so annoying. </p> <p>My husband use to never try clothes on and never return anything now he's a stickler about doing both. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-71666 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 19:11:27 +0000 heffalump 71666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never return things. I have friends that will buy things knowing that they'll just end up returning it. I just wouldn't buy it... and if I did I would donate it or give it away rather then return. That's why I don't shop online much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70865 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 11:09:57 +0000 BananaPancakes 70865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All the time. I return just about anything that doesn't work. I also online shop a lot, and am an expert at repackaging. It just doesn't make sense to keep things around that don't work. Just a waste of money if you ask me.<br /> But my husband is the worst! I have to bug him every day until he gets his stuff returned. We had almost $500 of extra wood that he purchased 2 weeks ago that was overage on a project he was working on at the house. I swear, the man would have let it sit until it was rotten and non returnable if I hadn't kept on him. And it was $500! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70856 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 11:02:48 +0000 tequiero21 70856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'm pretty good about it. although i have 2 unopened, unused move thingamajigs i bought and never returned ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70851 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 11:00:55 +0000 Cchoi4 70851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ALL. THE. TIME! It is mainly bc we do so much online shopping. The times when I actually venture to the store (or even the mall!), i have to look for things quickly and sometimes don't have the time to try it on. So i bring things home, evaluate, then return what I don't want/need. I do that almost immediately bc i don't want those large boxes in my itty bitty condo. Either you're in or you're out! </p> <p>Thank goodness for sites like zappos, amazon, etc. They make it so easy for moms to shop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70846 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 10:58:38 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 70846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. I don't want to waste my money. I do wind up waiting until the 90 day period is almost up though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70845 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 10:57:05 +0000 BabyLove 70845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All.the.time. </p> <p>I used to just kinda deal with what I got. But now I am always returning, exchanging or even calling the companies requesting replacement pieces. That's my new thing. It has been so much more effective than having to go to a store and hoping I can return/exchange with no hassles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70795 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 09:50:38 +0000 autumnlove 70795@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I'm terrible at it! I bought a baby lotion at Target and LO had a skin reaction to it. I didn't want to bother returning it since it was only $5 but DH got mad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70791 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 09:40:08 +0000 Andrea 70791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do most of the time but sometimes passable things will slip by. I'll think "Eeeeeh, it's ok...too lazy to return, ok I'll keep it." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70706 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 06:23:41 +0000 MsMamaBear 70706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only for clothes. other stuff? oh well. I'll figure something out.LOL I hate returning stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70698 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 02:18:24 +0000 looch 70698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For myself, not so much anymore. I really have to try stuff on because things fit me so differently, like shirts are so short in my prepregnancy size! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70682 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 22:37:46 +0000 PitBulLover 70682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been not great at it in the past, but recently realized that I can save money! Now I return anything and everything. I've returned milk &amp; blueberries to the grocery store because they weren't the quality I expected! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70669 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:50:37 +0000 joyjoy 70669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tina I shop the same way! A lot of times I can't decide in store/don't want to wait in line to try something on, so I'll buy anything that interests me, try everything on at home and then return what I don't want. I do that with online shopping, too. Buy a bunch of stuff, try it on at home and then return whatever didn't work out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70665 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:29:57 +0000 Rubies 70665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With clothes, I always make sure I can return them because I never try things on at the store. I HATE clothes shopping. I buy a bunch of things, bring it home, and decide. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70663 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:17:10 +0000 twodoghouse 70663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I almost never return things. In fact, I can think of at least 3 things in my house that are still in a box/bag with the receipt that I intended to return but never did. They are all more than a year old so I think that's a lost cause.... I don't know why I have an aversion to this - it's not like I live in a big city where it's hard to get to a store/mall and it's not like our stores are ever that busy. Oh well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70655 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:04:03 +0000 chopsuey 70655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Omgggg on the iPad!!!

I buy and return all the time. I hate trying on so it's a lot of trial and error. I can't stand keeping things around that don't work, fit, etc. If it doesn't work out, it goes back immediately! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70649 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 20:53:27 +0000 mrs. wagon 70649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's pretty much how I shop-- I buy several choices from different stores, then decide at home and return everything else. It takes forever and many trips to get everything back to the stores. But I do it! Our car always has bags and receipts for a return somewhere. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-make-returnsexchanges#post-70645 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 20:45:21 +0000 autumnlove 70645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am so lazy about returning things that don't work out. Do you always make returns or exchanges? </p>
