Topshop can I avoid paying for postage?

Hi, just a quick question.... I am looking to buy a pair of topshop jeans from their online site the jeans are £38 and postage is £4.

The site says that it is free delivery for orders over £75 and free returns. So could I buy other items to take my order over £75 and then just return everything except the jeans to save myself the postage? Has anyone else done this? I'm sure this will have been asked before but i just REALLY want these jeans:p and it drives me mad having to pay so much for postage!!! Thanks so much for your help!! xxx

    £4 for postage really isn't that much.
    :footie:
    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    Beware, they may well only part refund. They do this if you send stuff back (I know this as I used to work there and would get many complaints about this!) What you could do is ask for a credit voucher to spend at a later date. Or exchange for something else, as long as its not refunded back onto your card you don't risk losing the money. However, check first as they may have changed the policy since.

    yes you 100% get free postage if you spend over £75 and then just return the other things.
    I have done it looooads of times, I never order from there without spending over £75 and getting the free postage.
    Just take the items back to your local store and get a refund, or post them. You get a full refund on the items you return xx
