Sir, this is a Walmart. Your receipt says Circuit City.
Guess it depends on what it is, but 90day warranties are still a thing. Everything is just meant to be disposable now though so I guess the idea of refunds is an older person thing.
Also depends on the country, in Australia warranties are defined by law as essentially infinite and only constrained by the “expectations of a reasonable person.”
Australia, back at it again with “things that just make sense and should just be things everywhere.”
“… except internet prices”
And animals
I believe McConnell is too old to be a boomer, and is from the Silent generation.
Incidentally, Biden is the only silent generation US president.
They had to get one in before they die off.
So it’s not that silent anymore
Yeah, my dad was born in 49, and is at the beginning of the boomer gen. This guy makes my dad look young.
I actually had an old man insist I give him his money back, for an empty can of beets that he said were bad, I asked him when he bought them so I could look up the receipt. “Oh, I think about this time last year.”
But I read the book already, I don’t need it anymore!
Then give it to the Library ya doof
Costco: “Sure, here’s your money back. We’ll just find the receipt in our system. Have a nice day!”

Looks like you double posted.
This reminds me what I did in Best Buy once. They have (or had?) A return/exchange policy of 2 weeks, so I went to get a huge TV, but I was not sure if I really wanted it.
So I bought a Samsung 75" Smart TV, two weeks later, said I didn’t like it, exchanged it for an LG, 2 weeks later, said the same thing, exchanged it for a Vizio, and so on.
I ended up temporarily owning like 5-6 different smart TVs within a little over 3 months until I decided I no longer wanted it and returned it.
Did the same thing with headsets with 7 different pairs until I got the Sony XM3. US return/exchange policies go hard simetimes.
