    anyone know if you can return items and swap for other items ?


    My sister got a socket cover on Sunday - realised in the car park that she had paid £8.49 for it instead of the £4.89 on the shelf and went straight back in to ask for a refund - the sel was for a different cover which was two digits different on the barcode and this was just a random one which had been put in the wrong place, they refused a refund which she expected but wouldn't let her exchange it either - staff were incredibly rude and she was quite upset as was very pleasant to them.

    So hope the staff in your store are nicer and more obliging! I bought some seeds and the woman on the till was awful - so rude and when I was asking her a question about when the store closed she yawned and said 'dunno' with her hang-face on - what they should remember is that they will need jobs again soon and they don't know who they are serving - our company is currently recruiting, hope we don't get any apps from ex Focus Coulby Newham staff!!!
