Depends on how you purchased it, if Online/by phone then DSR gives you the right to return, if you purchased it in store then its purely down to the store's returns policy but i would suspect very unlikely0

If you have bought it a week ago even the DSR's probably wouldn't apply now, You have no right to a refund at all if you bought from a shop.
It is now second hand, try ebay if you really don't want it.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0 -
If you bought online you should be able to DSR as xmas and Boxing Day don't count as working days so you'll probably be within the 7 days allowed.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

Even without Christmas and boxing day OP would have 10 days to cancel (not return) it. That would be 7 working days starting tge day after delivery
However I suspect it was bought in store because I wouldn't expect an online order placed a week ago to be arriving very quickly given Christmas and Boxing Day.0 -
The Op needs to comeback and clarify,
Andy my apologies, I stand corrected re the days.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
