Oh and by the way, boots do give goodwill refunds - just because you changed your mind or for unwanted gifts.
I didnt say they wouldnt, i said you have no right in law for a refund.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.

I don't think that was the point the poster was trying to make.
You have to understand this is a massive forum, for everyone who reads and replies, there are many many many more who "lurk" or google and find this thread or similar. Its not a good idea to post ways to act dubiously (to say the least) and then support it. If everyone did this, stores would feel the pinch, offers would start to be affected, the results would be unfair for everyone not just those that acted in this way.
Its more about acting responsibly then thinking "its just a one off"- in fact one thing I've realised since joining is that if its posted on here, its very likely NOT to be a one off!0
