Bought items from Halfords, need to return - lost receipt!

Hi

as title suggests.

is there anything i can do. I want to return these useless items (oil filter is the wrong type, oil wrong grade!) however i've searched high and low but can't find the receipt. Halfords say they'll only exchange for other goods of the same price.

what can i do?

    Why don't you just replace for the correct type then, and pay any diff if applicable? :confused:

    Will they give you vouchers? Or get your mum a pair wipers for her birthday?:D
  • i think that could be the answer.

    Might try selling the filter to someone on the owners club forum. The oil i can probably flog to a mate.

    cheers

    What's that got to do with you buying the wrong bits?
