in Shop but don't drop
Hello Folks

We bought a tent yesterday at Go Outdoors for a quite decent price of £229.99. TODAY they sent us a discount voucher for 20% off all tents! I believe they accept returns pretty much without quibble for 28 days. So, what would you do? I don't believe in lying but it also seems a bit cheeky to tell them that we just want to return it and buy it again to get the money off.

Cheers

    I'd return it and buy it at a different one with the voucher :D no lying involved there!

    Absolutely, that's what Id do if there was no problem with their returns policy.

    Could you also buy it through Quidco and get even more money off.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    I'll be sending the wife in today as I won't be able to get there by Sunday. I don't think Go Outdoors are on Quidco.

    Have a look for other cash back sites that they may be on.

    All immaterial, I'm afraid. It turns out the the £229.99 price is a one week only special which means that the extra 20% off can't be used "in conjunction with". Shame.
