Woman returns real christmas tree to Costco on Jan 4, because it was "dead"

I have facebook too and saw this last week. Boo!

This is why I don't like people.

The employee who processed the return should be fired.


Or the employee who wrote the return regulations loophole should go.

It's called good customer service. Most stores monitor how much stuff you return and cut abusers off at some point, but the cost of the return is a lot lower than the bad publicity from a bad non return gone viral.

I’m pretty sure nobody would side with a woman who tried to return a used Christmas tree after Christmas

But I could be wrong

i agree, but politely denying this return would have in no way been viewed as an opportunity for bad publicity

if anything, it would have made the person making a fuss look like an idiot


i don't recall costco's exact return policy, but they are known to take back pretty much anything

Uh. No. This is called stupidity. By all means, post this shite on FB about how I wouldn't return your USED, DEAD Christmas tree on Jan 5th.

None of the Costcos in Houston sell real trees, where is this?

California

who would have guessed

Too bad they didn't have a live one left over to replace the dead one and send her on her way

If she kept her receipt.....

To be fair, Christmas season runs thru January 6th
