Boots -can you return gift cards?

I have a £25 Itunes voucher that I bought from Boots this week. It is completely unused. Does anyone know if you can return unused gift cards instore for a refund?

Trying to avoid ringing them!

    I'm curious to know why you bought it.

    Could you give it to someone for Christmas or a birthday perhaps.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    I'm just trying to get it for a better price!:money: I bought it for a Christmas present from Boots in particular as it was a £25 card for £20 and I thought I'd get advantage card points on that. Didn't realise until I got my receipt that they don't give points on it.

    Have since found out that HMV are doing them for £20 and there is an American Express cashback bonus with them (via Foursquare app) - get £5 when you spend £20 using Amex.

    Never mind!
