Returning perfume

[shyjane]

I'm going to be buying a friend some perfume for Christmas, most likely from Boots as they have an offer on. If she doesn't like it, do you know if I can return it there for a refund if it's unopened, ie still in it's cellophane?

Yes, as long as you still have the receipt and the wrapping is all intact. Check when you buy it, though - see if they will give you a tester sample too.

If you ask for a gift receipt when you pay you can pop that in with her pressie.

for her to know she doesnt like it surely she would open the wrapper ??

Don't buy perfume unless you are sure they use it. It is such a personal thing. Safer by far to buy a small set of tester perfumes. Unless your friend particularly likes a scent, and that would not need taking back. Alternatively, give a voucher. I know it seems like a safe bet. Better that than wasted money.

you have no legal right to return anything for a refund because it is just unsuitable, but most retailers will refund unopened items in a saleable condition in the original payment method, therefore I suggest you pay cash, that way anyone can take the receipt in for the refund .
